All supplies and services procurement opportunities with the state of Illinois are now available to participating vendors electronically. Central Management Services (CMS) uses the Illinois Procurement Bulletin (IPB) to provide information about procurement opportunities with the state.

The Illinois Procurement Bulletin home page may be accessed at

This address allows vendors to obtain general information, visit the online forum, read frequently asked questions and answers and access notices posted by agencies at this site. The Illinois Procurement Bulletin is a free subscription to vendors. To register for this free subscription, click on Registration. Registered vendors will be allowed to download solicitations and receive e-mail for new solicitations, addendums and award notices. However, vendors who are not registered are only allowed to browse through the site.
