BHDD Procurement Process

To do business with the State of South Carolina, you must first register as a vendor on the State's e-procurement system, which is accessible through the State Fiscal Accountability Authority's (SFAA) Division of Procurement Services website. Once registered, you can bid on solicitations and find other procurement opportunities through BHDD.

Advertising of quotes, bids and proposals involving goods, services, information technology and construction above $10,000.00 in estimated or actual value is mandated by the SC Procurement Code. The Division of Procurement's Materials Management Office (MMO) publishes a periodical called South Carolina Business Opportunities (SCBO) twice a week to satisfy this mandate. SCBO is available online at no charge at https://scbo.sc.gov/online-edition.
