Do I register with Rochester or with New Hampshire?

Choose the registration process for the agency issuing the opportunity. New Hampshire's Bureau of Purchase and Property handles most state purchases of goods and non-construction services. State guidance points suppliers to other purchasing offices for public works, highway construction and additional agency opportunities. State agencies and education systems may publish opportunities separately, and the state resources may not include every local buyer. Confirm city, town, county, school district and other issuer requirements independently. For city, county or school bids around Rochester, check that buyer’s own instructions before creating an account.

New Hampshire supplier starting points:
1. Use the state's contractor resources to identify the purchasing office that matches your goods or services.
2. Consult the DAS Vendor Resource Center for state vendor registration instructions, and check the solicitation for when vendor information is required.
3. Read the issuing office's solicitation documents for response requirements and submission instructions.
