Add from "BlueSearch" (The Blue Book Network)

If you want to increase your subcontractor and supplier coverage you can research and select companies from The Blue Book Network by clicking on the "Add Vendors" button (upper right) and then the "BlueSearch" option.

You begin by either entering a company’s name or trade category along with the location – state, city, or zip code – at the top of the screen. You can also find companies by clicking on the CSI or Blue Book labeled “Groups” and “Categories”.

When you select your category, you will be linked to The Blue Book Network’s “Page 1” customers for that category. These are companies that are investing in our network’s premiere position because they want to work for you. Click on the company’s name to review their “Premium Proview”, which tells their story through pictures, videos, qualifications, certifications, experiences, completed projects, testimonials, and much more.

If you want to narrow your “Page 1” search, you can apply filters like location, project specialization and types, product brands, and associations. Those filters are located on the screen's left navigation panel.

To add companies to your project, check “Select All” or select specific companies by checking the box next to their name; click on “Choose an Action”; and then click “Add to My Projects”, which will enable you to add the companies to multiple bidding projects if you want.

If our “Page 1” customers did not satisfy your project’s requirements, you can search all the company listings in that regional trade category by clicking on the page numbers at the bottom of the screen.
