EProcurement Registration and Training

Supplier Registration

ComputerAll suppliers interested in bidding or proposing on products and services procured by Metro must complete the Supplier Registration process available through this website. Registered suppliers will receive a SMARTrac number to participate in the solicitation process.

A SMARTrac Training Module is available to assist you in this process.

Once registered but prior to issuing the initial purchase order or contract award, all suppliers must also be issued an E1 number. This process generally takes 48 hours to be processed in Metro’s financial enterprise system. You do not have to initiate this process but being aware of the delay is important. Once the initial PO or contract is awarded this delay no longer exists for subsequent awards.

Additionally, the registration process collects information about your company, the products and/or services you provide and the associated commodity codes. Solicitations are based on commodity codes and will be emailed to your attention.

The system is a Supplier Managed System. You must keep your emails current in order to receive bid and proposal notifications.
