How to Run an RFP Search ▶️

Log in to Fedmine

• After logging in, navigate to "Federal Opportunities."

Access RFP Search

• Click on "RFP Search" from the Federal Opportunities menu.

Prepare for the Search

• Before running the search, ensure you have:
  • The type of notices (e.g., open opportunities or solicitation documents)
  • Posted dates
  • List of agencies
  • Relevant keywords
  • Any set-asides or GWACs of interest

Select Type of Notice

• Choose the type of notice you are looking for (e.g., "Open Opportunities").

Input Posted Date Range

• Enter a "Posted Date Between" range to capture relevant opportunities. This is a dynamic search, so it will continue to pick up new opportunities even after the date selected.

Enter Keywords

• Enter keywords manually, separated by commas, or select from a pre-populated list saved in "MyResearch."

Input NAICS Codes

• Enter NAICS codes manually or use the dropdown to select saved NAICS codes from "MyResearch."

Optional: Refine by Location or Contracting Office

• You can filter by contracting office states, place of performance, or region if desired.

Optional: Add PSC Codes

• Input PSC codes manually or select from saved PSC codes in "MyResearch."

Select Agencies

• If focusing on specific agencies, hold "Ctrl" and select multiple agencies if needed.

Optional: Additional Filters

• Add other filters such as set-asides or specific locations as needed.

Run the Search

• Once all criteria are entered, click the "Search" button.

Review Results

• A list of results will appear (e.g., 54 results in this search). If there are no results, it may mean no active solicitations are available.

Save the Search

• After running the search, click "Save," create a title for your search, and save it for future use.
