About this file
This is a vendor notification document issued by the Delaware Division of Facilities Management (DFM) in partnership with Bonfire Interactive, announcing a transition to an online bidding portal system. The notification applies to multiple Delaware state agencies including Government Support Services (GSS), the Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS), the Department of Transportation (DelDOT), and the Department of Technology and Information (DTI). DFM bid opportunities will continue to be posted at https://mmp.delaware.gov/Bids/, and solicitations will clearly indicate whether submissions must be made through the Bonfire Interactive portal at http://DFM.bonfirehub.com. Vendors must register with the Bonfire portal to submit bids for solicitations requiring online submission, and all bid submissions must meet specified due dates and times to be considered responsive. Public Works bid openings will remain conducted in person, though online bid submissions will not be accepted in-person.
The Bonfire registration and portal access are provided at no cost to vendors, though enhanced registration options may be available for purchase on an optional basis. Solicitation documents will be visible in both the Bonfire portal and GSS MyMarketplace. Bid advertisements will indicate submission due dates and times as well as bid opening dates and times on both platforms. The notification includes links to Bonfire resources including vendor registration assistance, password creation support, submission creation and uploading guidance, and instructional videos. The document emphasizes that online bidding requirements will not apply to all State of Delaware solicitations, and vendors should review individual solicitation documents for specific submission requirements.

To Our Business Partners/State of Delaware Vendors
The Division of Facilities Management (DFM) has partnered with Bonfire Interactive to improve the online bidding process. DFM will now join Government Support Services (GSS), the Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS), the Department of Transportation (DelDOT), and the Department of Technology and Information (DTI) in accepting online bid submissions through the Bonfire Interactive portal. In preparation for this transition there are a few there are a few things to keep in mind:
• Vendors will continue to find DFM bid opportunities at https://mmp.delaware.gov/Bids/.
• All state solicitations will clearly identify how to submit bid proposals.
• If the solicitation requires submission through the Bonfire portal the solicitation will clearly state this requirement.
When the Bonfire portal is being utilized, and online bid submissions apply, vendors should note:
• Bonfire Portal can be accessed at http://DFM.bonfirehub.com.
• A Bonfire registration affords vendors an additional opportunity to receive email notice(s) when solicitations are available.
• Solicitation documents will be visible in Bonfire just as the documents will remain visible in GSS’ MyMarketplace.
• For solicitations that use Bonfire to receive documents, the Vendor will need to register for the Bonfire portal to submit a bid.
• “In-person” bid/proposal submissions will not be accepted.
• Bid advertisements at GSS’ MyMarketplace and the Bonfire Portal will indicate a bid submission due date and time as well as a bid opening date and time. These dates/times must be met in order for the submission to be considered responsive.
• Public Works Bid Openings will remain in person.
There is NO COST to register with and/or utilize Bonfire. (Bonfire may offer enhanced registration options but vendors are not obligated to pay or select the enhanced registration options.)
