Government Files

Search for and review various Government Files for Opportunities and Awards in GovTribe

GovTribe aggregates and digitizes Government Files generated as part of the procurement process for most publicly available Contract or Grant Opportunity. For Federal Supply Schedule IDV Awards, this feature provides access to publicly available, vendor provided price lists and terms and conditions. On the Government Files Search page you can search for any document by name or keyword, by type using filters, format type, for any particular Opportunity or Award, and more.

For example, if you search the Government Files page for a certain keyword (i.e., “renovate”, or the name of a product, or a vendor name), GovTribe not only returns a list of files that contain that keyword, it also highlights the keyword within the document in the document preview area.

When you add any Opportunity as a Pursuit on your account, all Government Files associated with that Opportunity are automatically pulled to your Pursuit page. Furthermore, if any updates to those files on a Pursuit will be updated, and a notification of the update will appear in your Activity Feed for the Pursuit.
