Subpart 5104.5 Electronic Commerce
All contracting offices will post all solicitations to the Army’s Single Face to Industry (ASFI) web site (http://acquisition.army.mil/). The ASFI provides industry partners with a single Army entry point and a simplified method for conducting new business opportunities searches. The AFSI sends data to the Department of Defense (DoD) Business Opportunities website (http://www.dodbusopps.com/). Consequently, vendor search capabilities improve across the entire DoD. Army industry partners are encouraged to register in AFSI for submission of proposals via the secure bid response system. In addition, the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) web site (http://www.fedbizopps.gov/) is designated as the electronic government wide entry point for information on government contracts over $25,000. All qualifying notices and access to solicitations shall be posted to the FedBizOpps web site.
