ATTENTION VENDORS: Transition to New Procurement Portal – Bonfire

New Brunswick Power Corporation (NB Power) has partnered with Bonfire Interactive to create a new procurement portal, replacing the previous platform, WoodMackenzie (formerly known as PowerAdvocate). This new procurement portal will allow you to receive notifications of business opportunities and submit proposals to NB Power digitally. Registration is easy and free.

To register for a new Bonfire account, simply visit the following link: https://nbpower.bonfirehub.ca. Once you have registered, you will not need to register again in the future, as your account will remain active for any future opportunities. If you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact us at AllTenders@nbpower.com.

NB Power uses different procurement methods to meet its needs. Larger purchases are often made by issuing a Request for Tender or Request for Proposal which is posted on the New Brunswick Opportunities Network. Smaller purchases are typically made through a Request for Quote where a limited number of suppliers are contacted directly. In a small percentage of cases, NB Power negotiates with specific suppliers based on clearly defined exemptions that are outlined within the Procurement Act & Regulations.

If you have products or services to offer and would like us to be aware of your offerings, please send any relevant information, such as your website or product line card, to alltenders@nbpower.com.

To access NB Power's current tenders, please visit the New Brunswick Opportunities Network (NBON) site.
