XL EagleAPP (Arizona) (Arizona Procurement Portal)
APP (Arizona) stands for Arizona Procurement Portal. The Arizona Procurement Portal is the State of Arizona's eProcurement system, overseen by the State Procurement Office in the Department of Administration. State agencies post solicitations there, and anyone can view statewide and agency contracts.
Vendors must register to do business with the state and to receive solicitation notices matched to their commodity codes. Solicitations issued through APP, including RFQs, IFBs, and RFPs, generally require electronic responses.
Why it matters to a small contractor
Register on APP with your exact legal name and tax ID, then add every commodity code that fits your work. Registration includes an approval step, so do it well before a deadline.
Example
A small HVAC company registers on APP and, after approval, receives a notice for an IFB covering cooling tower maintenance at a state facility. It submits its bid electronically through the portal.
