To access the eQuote system, a state or local government buyer must be a registered user of the Georgia Procurement Registry (GPR), State Purchasing Bid Posting System. The Agency or University Procurement Officer (APO / UPO) for each entity is responsible for registering new users to the system. Users already registered with the GPR are automatically able to use eQuote. In order for your agency to become an eQuote user, your APO or UPO must contact the Purchasing Helpdesk.
Please review important policies governing the use of eQuote in the Georgia Procurement Manual. For additional information about eQuote, please e-mail your questions to equote@doas.ga.gov or call the eQuote Help Desk at 404-657-6000.

Delegated Purchasing Authority |

eQuote may be utilized to solicit bids from suppliers registered on the State of Georgia Team Georgia Marketplace Registration System up to the agency or college's Delegated Purchasing Authority (DPA). In addition, eQuote will provide the option to go beyond the DPA using the same features that the GPR has for getting approved from State Purchasing once the "One Time Request to Exceed DPA form" is approved by SPD. |
