posted a question on "Ask a Question" PostedFriday, December 18, 2020 at 4:14 PM What bid sites do people like for identifying RFPs/RFQs/Etc. for SCADA projects? We've tried NAPC, BidOcean, VendorLine, BidNet, and a few others. Each has their own advantage but none seem to be a perfect fit for us. The key feature I need is automatic email notification for opportunities based on a list of keywords (e.g. "SCADA") versus category/code (e.g. "20888 - Monitoring Software" or "90608 - Automation; Controls; Instrumentation"), which is a common feature. Most sites will only automatically identify projects based on category/code and you have to perform a manual search if I want to find projects based on a keyword. That process is annoying and unnecessarily time consuming if we have a list of 5-10 keywords since the keyword search boxes typically only allow one keyword at a time. I've done trial runs with a few options but I'm hoping to save a bit of time and effort by making a short list of options based on your suggestions. Thanks! 2 Answers Reset Sort By Default Alex Stipe , Enterprise Automation Posted Friday, January 8, 2021 at 5:08 PM Thanks. I did not realize that I wasn't logged in when I posted.
