SAP Ariba does not by default allow public access to any of its data. However, public sector agencies and other regulated industries can still selectively allow their data to be accessed publicly. BidPublic is custom built for customers that need to provide their constituents and stakeholders with full transparency into their sourcing process.

Bidpublic integrates with SAP Ariba to enable public sector agencies to pull their bid requests, contracts, and supplier information to be shared to their vendors, taxpayers, or any other interested parties. Agencies have full control over how the information is presented and discovered by external stakeholders.

BidPublic’s core mission is to maximize agency-vendor collaboration by providing a single go-to portal for your vendors and constituents to find all your bid requests, upcoming events, contacts, and information about how to do business with your organization. Vendors can browse and search for sourcing events directly in BidPublic; they can also conveniently register as suppliers, request invitations to bid, and respond to Ariba sourcing events with help from BidPublic. Vendors can discover bids using categories defined by the agency and clearly see the bidding rules for each bid.

Yes. BidPublic integrates with SAP Business Network Discovery to pull your Discovery postings and make them available on your BidPublic transparency portal, so your vendors can have a place to find only your bids. BidPublic can also link to your Discovery postings to provide a seamless two-way connection. Furthermore, bid requests in BidPublic that are related to Discovery postings can use commodity codes, categories, and bid deadline timezones configured per your requirement, eliminating any confusion with vendors.

BidPublic is delivered as a SaaS solution and can be set up, configured, and deployed within 48 hrs. As a pre-built SAP Ariba certified integration, there is no technical development or implementaiton needed to deploy BidPublic. Typically, customers may take 10-15 days to brand, configure, customize (e.g. author FAQ, or Contact Us web pages), and test the transparency portal before going live with BidPublic.

Bidpublic offers a flexible pricing model that scales with your use of the platform. Based on the scope and transactions managed within BidPublic, we can size a quote that meets your needs. All pricing includes technical support, maintenance and upgrades.
