How to hear about government work before the RFP
Minutes, capital plans and budgets say what an agency will buy months before the bid.
Hear it at the board meeting, months before the bid

How do I find school district bids?
Most districts post bids on their own website or purchasing page, and some use a shared portal. Capveon reads them all and brings back the district and university bids that fit what you sell.
Does Capveon read school board meetings?
Yes. Capveon reads school board agendas and minutes along with budgets and facility plans, and shows the votes and discussions that point to a purchase.
Does it show when a district can buy from a cooperative contract?
Capveon notes when a bid allows other agencies to buy from the contract. It does not add you to cooperative contracts.
