IPRO Registration & Training

  • IPRO Registration & Training
    1. Vendors must register in IPRO to gain access to detailed solicitation information and to be eligible for a contract award. Once you set up your account, the IPRO system is designed to send an e-mail to the contact address you provided, alerting you to the State of Idaho solicitations posted in IPRO, based on the commodity and service selections you included in your registration information
    2. Registration is free and takes only a few moments.
      (Note: an administrative fee may apply to awarded contract, as detailed in the solicitation document.)
    3. If your entity is already registered, please do NOT create a new profile; duplicate profiles will not be approved. If you are having trouble logging in, please see IPRO Help. To Register with the State of Idaho please click here.
  • IPRO Help

    Supplier support for the IPRO system is provided by Jaggaer. Please contact Jaggaer Support at (800) 233-1121. Or submit a help ticket here.

    • The Idaho Division of Purchasing posts business opportunities on the IPRO e-purchasing system. Many state agencies are also using this system. Use of this Internet-based system allows vendors to respond to solicitations online or download non-interactive bids or proposals, update their company information and contacts, see bid results, and receive purchase orders and contracts online. You need access to the Internet and a current web browser that supports 128-bit encryption.
    If you have any questions contact us at ipro@adm.idaho.gov

    Other Information for Vendors

  • Bid Openings

    As permitted in IDAPA 38.05.01.073, DOP will be opening all sealed bids (ITBs,RFPs, and ITNs) using “electronic virtual opening.” Again, this change is being made to limit the risk of spreading COVID-19 through contact between DOP personnel and vendors/the public. The “electronic virtual opening” will consist of a written record documenting the following information: date, time, and location of the opening; names of all persons present; name and title of the person completing the opening; and a list of all submissions received including the name of the company, the date and time of submission, and the total bid “Serving Idaho citizens through effective services to their governmental agencies” price (for ITBs only). This electronic virtual opening record will be available upon written request once the opening has been completed and the record has been finalized.

  • Usage Reports and Administrative Fee

    Usage reports and administrative fees are due quarterly only if required by your Contract. Please refer to your contract documents or contact the DOP Contract Administrator if you are unsure of this requirement.

  • Notice to IT Vendors

    The State’s “Special Terms and Conditions for Customized Software and Related Services” (rev. 2005) is in the process of being updated and converted to a more broadly applicable standard set of “Special” Terms and Conditions applicable to IT solicitations in general.  The Division of Purchasing began this process almost a year ago, recognizing that the IT landscape is constantly evolving and that, with the increased utilization of “cloud” offerings, issues regarding ownership, warranty and the risk of data breach need to be more thoroughly explored and addressed.

    In the interim, as has been the practice of the Division for many years, tailored “special” terms and conditions are included in complex IT procurements (within the particular solicitation), and vendors are encouraged to ask questions and provide alternative and/or additional language during the Pre-Proposal Conference as well as during the Question and Answer period, as provided in the written instructions for each solicitation issued by the Division.

    For example, the Division has considered and adopted limitations of liability on a case-by-case basis over the years, based on an analysis of risk within the proposed scope of work, in consultation with the requisitioning agency and additional internal experts.  As the Division gets closer to finalizing its initial draft of the standard Special Terms and Conditions for IT, we will be inviting input from the vendor community, as we did several years ago when revising our “Standard Terms and Conditions” (for all goods and services); and look forward to participation by experts within the IT Industry who can provide constructive feedback and suggestions for the State to consider.
