The NSNs you follow
Follow an NSN and send it to your alerts. New solicitations that list it appear there.
Alerts · DIBBS software for DLA suppliers
DIBBS alerts built on your NSNs and CAGEs, not keywords.
Follow an NSN and add it to your alerts. When a new DIBBS solicitation lists it, it shows up there, beside the detail your team needs to decide whether to quote.
What it does
What do DIBBSFlow alerts cover?
A keyword alert matches words in a listing. DIBBSFlow alerts start from the stock numbers your team follows and the CAGEs on your account, so they track the items themselves.
The CAGEs set up for your account
Alerts can also follow the CAGEs set up with your account at onboarding, such as the companies you compete with.
Next to the work
Alerts live in the workspace beside the solicitation detail, your team's notes on the NSN, and Filed Solicitations.
