Does information posted to the Bid Express Small Business Network™ have the same security as when I bid using the Bid Express Service?
All quotes, whether via a reply or an unsolicited quote, are sent to the Bid Express account of the prime contractor, and in order for the quotes to be viewed, the prime contractor has to have a login and password. While subcontractors’ replies are not available for public viewing, the Bid Express Small Business Network™ does not use the same encryption technology that the Bid Express service uses to send bids to agencies, nor does the Bid Express Small Business Network™ employ lockbox technology.
