Sourcing: How to search for Suppliers

Note: the video displays an older user interface but functionality and navigation steps remain the same.

Step 1: Select Your Search Criteria

Use the filters within the Search Bar to narrow down your results. To perform a keyword search, enter your term(s) and click the Search icon. Keep in mind that keyword searches return a broad list of suppliers whose profiles include that term in their company name, products and services, or capabilities statement. If you're looking for a specific company, we recommend using the Advanced Search for more precise results.

Step 2: Use Advanced Search for More Filters

Click on Advanced Search to access additional filtering options. You can refine your search by:

• Certifications

• Ownership type

• Location (and Service Areas)

• Viewing registered potential suppliers or current suppliers

Step 3: Review and Manage Your Results

Your search results will appear in a scrollable list. From here, you can:

• Download supplier profiles

• Mark as Favorite for future reference or Add to a saved list

• Share selected suppliers with your team

• Review applicable certification details
