What Virginia has spent on this

Yearly order totals, newest data on the right. Purchase orders placed through the Commonwealth's e-procurement system by state agencies, colleges and universities, and the local governments that choose to use it (local use is voluntary, so local spending is understated). Calendar years by order date; order amounts, not payments. Published after each year ends, so the newest full year is the previous one.

By buyer in 2024: state agencies 100%; the largest buyers were Virginia Department of Transportation ($1.7 billion); DOC - Architecture and Engineering ($1.2 million); Southside Virginia Community College ($447 thousand); March and February carry the largest share of the year's orders (39% across the years shown).

Contracts coming up for renewal

These contracts for this kind of work end within the next 12 months, soonest first. A contract that ends is often rebid or extended.

End dates are the buyers' own. Contracts of the City of Richmond with their effective dates, supplier and value. One city only; other Virginia localities are not in it. Source: City of Richmond, Virginia, Department of Procurement open data (data.richmondgov.com).

How to bid on notices like these

  1. Read the whole notice first: the due date and time, how to submit, and whether a pre-bid meeting or site visit is required.
  2. Check you qualify: registration with the buyer, licences, insurance, bonding, and any small-business or local preference.
  3. Ask questions before the question deadline; the answers usually go to every bidder.
  4. Price the whole scope and include every form the notice asks for. A missing form or signature can disqualify a bid.
  5. Submit early. Portals slow down near a deadline, and late bids are normally rejected.

For paving & site construction: Read the quantities and the unit-price table closely; paving work is often priced per ton, yard or foot.
