G2B PunchOut for BidBuy

Per Section 1.2.16. of the Contract, Acceptance of Purchase Orders:

BidBuy is the electronic procurement system in use by State Agencies under the jurisdiction of the Chief Procurement Office for General Services. All State Agencies are required to place orders against Joint Purchase Master Contracts in BidBuy and a Vendor is required to accept the BidBuy purchase orders. The Vendor is required to utilize the ‘Punchout’ system to process purchase orders submitted in this fashion. These orders usually process directly through the Vendor’s order entry system for fulfillment, saving hours or days in processing time and improving product shipping times.

It is a requirement for the Contract(s) resulting from this bid to be able to be interfaced to the State of Illinois eProcurement System (known as “BidBuy”) for ordering usage for all State Agency users of this contract via a PunchOut.

Please see the BidBuy attachment named “Punchout Vendor Guide for Implementing G2B PunchOuts in BidBuy” which discusses the technical requirements for the PunchOut to the State’s eProcurement system, BidBuy. Please allow your technical staff to review this document to determine your capability to interface to BidBuy. Any necessary programming is the responsibility of the Bidder and subsequently awarded vendor.
