Frequently Asked Questions

MissouriBUYS is a secure, web-based statewide eProcurement system implemented by the State of Missouri with its partner, Perfect Commerce (a PROACTIS Company), using their WebProcure application. MissouriBUYS includes vendor (self-service) registration and profile updates, solicitations (both formal and informal), consolidated public Bid Board and public Contract Board, online bidding for vendor responses, order management (requisitions, purchase orders, contracts, catalogs, receipts, and invoices), and the MissouriBUYS Bid Locator Tool (search tool to locate bids posted by governmental entities in Missouri). 

MissouriBUYS is a user-friendly, one-stop shop for procurements (from request to invoice) by state government agencies.  MissouriBUYS includes online supplier catalogs (from awarded contracts) that state agencies can use to place orders for products and services electronically in a retail-like shopping experience (place items in a cart, checkout).  When fully implemented, state universities, local governments and political subdivisions will be able to use MissouriBUYS to post their own bid opportunities on the Bid Board, send automated notifications of bid opportunities to vendors, and receive online bid responses from vendors.
