## Where testing demand appears.

The active radar is New York–focused. Federal or out-of-state opportunities remain research until the exact buyer, jurisdiction and qualified delivery route are verified.

NYC
### City Record + PASSPort

Agency solicitations, notices, conferences, addenda, questions and response deadlines.

HOUSING + SCHOOLS
### NYCHA + SCA

iSupplier opportunities, pre-qualified lists, School Construction Authority bids and anticipated work.

STATE + FEDERAL
### NYSCR + SAM.gov

New York State, municipal, university and federal sampling, analytical and materials-testing opportunities.

Qualification record

## Track more than the due date.

A useful testing-bid record must expose every requirement capable of disqualifying the bidder or making the laboratory route impossible.

| Area | Captured requirements | Decision |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Technical | Methods, matrices, analytes, detection limits, sample counts, QA/QC and EDD | Can the scope be performed? |
| Credential | Accreditation, state certification, licenses, samplers, technicians and local PQL status | Is the team eligible? |
| Commercial | Bid form, bonds, insurance, MWBE/Section 3 goals, pricing format and payment terms | Can the bid comply? |
| Schedule | Pre-bid, site visit, question deadline, due date, turnaround and award term | Can the team deliver? |
| Operations | Sampling, courier, custody, containers, preservation, holding time and report delivery | Can the award execute? |

Do not stop at alerts

## A bid alert is not a testing business.

The value is converting qualified opportunities into partner-backed quotes and then into executed sampling and laboratory work.
