Hi everyone, as a beginner working with DIBBS, should I avoid AIDC contracts? Are there any specific challenges or requirements I should know about when handling these contracts? Any advice on how to approach them would be greatly appreciated!”

I am excited to join. I am from South Jersey! I learned a lot about DIBBS DLA and I finally got my postcard this weekend. I am all registered and ready to take action. I plan to get some quotes tomorrow and put in at least 5 quotes this week. I want to focus on ones with simple commercial packaging and requirements. Once I get the hang of everything…there will be no stopping me. Feel free to say hi and let’s make some connections. I love to bond with other newbies. P.S. Thank you Day Cantave for this community and the abundance of information you give.

What tools make the bidding process easier? Like a tool that finds all the suppliers for part numbers.

How do you organize all your solicitations and bid information? Do you use any software tools to manage the process?

Should I pay close attention to AMSC codes when working with DIBBS contracts, and are there certain AMSC codes that make contracts easier for new suppliers? Does AMSC significantly impact my ability to do certain contracts?
