How is a replacement digital ID different than a new one?
A new ID is created when you do not have an active ID with BidX.com for the agency with which you wish to bid. A new digital ID can only be enabled after original paperwork has been received and agency approval has been given. A replacement digital ID is created to replace an existing but lost or corrupted digital ID for the same agency. Because the information for a replacement digital ID is identical to an active digital ID on file, BidX.com can accept faxed paperwork and will not have to wait on agency approval in order to have it enabled. However, original paperwork must be received within thirty days of enabling the replacement digital ID otherwise the digital ID will be disabled.
