What to do if you are not seeing good matches

If BidSparq is not surfacing good opportunities, it is almost always because your profile is too narrow or your search is too specific. A few quick changes usually fix it.

Widen your profile

• Add every NAICS code you can legitimately perform, not just your primary one.
• Add keywords for the products, brands, and services buyers actually name in solicitations.
• Check that your location and contract size range are not excluding good work.
• Confirm your set-asides and certifications are entered so eligible opportunities show.

Broaden your search

If a specific search returns little, remove a filter or two, or search a broader term. Remember that the BidSparq live feed is current government opportunities. For past work and competitor activity, use historical and competitor bids. If you are still stuck, contact support and we will help tune your profile.
