Worked as a queue. Quoted in one file. Closed out with who won.
DLA posts thousands of requests a day. DIBBS Watch reads the government's own files overnight, matches them to the parts and brands you carry, ranks them with the time-critical buys first, prices them from award history, and turns the ones you choose into a quote file DIBBS accepts. When DLA awards, you see who won and at what price.
Suppliers lose orders on parts they already carry, at prices they would have beaten, because nobody saw the request in time. Searching by hand covers a fraction of what posts, and some buys are awarded before the return date.
From posting to award, one queue. Nothing is submitted on your behalf and no DIBBS login is ever stored: you upload the file DIBBS Watch builds.
The day's postings and their documents, matched to your portfolio, brands and watch lists. Brand names found only in drawings or specs are flagged separately.
Each match is an opportunity: new, reviewing, quoted, passed. Assign it, see the approved sources, the price history chart, the last winners and a recommended price with the reasoning.
Enter price, quantity and delivery. DIBBS Watch builds the upload file in DLA's own format from your quoting profile, validates it, and you upload it to DIBBS.
After the return date the award tables are checked for everything you quoted. Won or lost, with the winner's CAGE and price, win rate, hit rate by tier and a competitor leaderboard.
Time-critical buys flagged and sorted to the top with the date they are evaluated.
Stock numbers, brands, line card, watch lists and mentions inside the solicitation documents themselves. Exclusions for what you never quote.
Your own last price when you have won the part, else a step under the lowest recent winner, with quantity and price-jump flags and a history chart.
DLA's current layout, pre-filled from the request and your profile, validated before download. Quote sheet CSV for your ERP.
Award tables checked automatically for quoted items. See the winner, their price and your gap.
Morning email with CSV before the business day starts; separate alert when a portfolio or watch-list item posts.
Negotiated RFPs and long-term contracts with set-aside and build-to-print flags; SAM.gov notices by NAICS, PSC and keyword with your own API key.
Owners, quoters and viewers. Assignments, notes and an activity log on every opportunity. One-time sign-in links, no passwords.
Most bid-matching tools stop at the alert. DIBBS Watch carries the request through quoting and the award.
