Getting started
The first time you login, you will be prompted to set up 3 security questions that we can use to verify your identity if you forget your password.
You can manage your company profile any time by clicking My Account on the top menu of the Deskpad page.
Here, you can add personnel to your profile, and grant seat licenses (you can add up to 4 additional personnel with a standard subscription. Contact us if you require additional seats.) Verify that the information in your company profile is accurate, and you have the correct company type selected, as well as any certifications or licenses you may have. The accuracy of this information is important as it will be reflected on bid lists and in our company directory. |
Project quick search
Set search filters
From the main screen/My Deskpad, see Quick Links on the left side of screen, click on Set Search Filters
Select project phase, and any other criteria you want to use to narrow your search, like Construction Category, or Funding Type.
If you want to narrow your search by location, click on the US map, then select General Regions, or Individual Counties and select the region or county/counties you're interested in, and click Save Selections. If you want to skip this step, your search will include the entire state or states where you have services.
Finally, enter any keywords, or bid date range you want to use, name your filter, click save, then search for projects.
You can review your saved filters by clicking My Filters List under Quick Links on the Deskpad |
Track projects
From any Project Detail Screen, see Tracking & see drop-down box for Track with or w/o Email
Select Track with Email to receive email alerts any time there is a project status change or addenda issued.
Select Track w/o Email to simply add the project to your My Tracked Projects, accessible under Quick Links on the My Deskpad page, but not receive any email alerts. |
