How to Review a Search Result: Using the Bid Details Page
Click View details on any search result to open the Bid Details page, where key dates, budget estimate, effort rating, documents and the buyer's contact all sit in one place.
How to Search Using Keywords and Filters
Start with a phrase that matches the service you actually sell, then narrow with Bid Banana's filters: closing date, state, agency, NAICS code, industry, type and access.
How to Use Saved Search for Automatic Daily Searches
Save a search once and Bid Banana re-runs it for you, emailing you daily when new open bids match your keyword and filters. Manage them all under Account Settings.
How to Use the AI Assistant

What Is Bid Status? How to Search Open Bids, Closed Bids, and Award Data
