SEBconnect 2.0.17

SEBconnect serves as a streamlined platform aimed at connecting local businesses with emerging opportunities at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Designed to raise awareness and facilitate education among small business owners within the Greater New Orleans area, this tool offers real-time updates on contracting and procurement opportunities through automated push notifications and text alerts.

Registration is straightforward: existing users participating in the Convention Center’s SEB Program (www.exhallnola.com) can simply log in with their current credentials. New users are encouraged to select the “New user? Register now!” option to complete a simplified registration process. It is important to note that businesses not yet certified in Hudson, SLDBE, or LAUCP programs can also register to access live opportunities. Certification details and guidance are accessible via the “Helpful Links” section within the app’s menu.

Post-registration, users can log into SEBconnect to browse all active opportunities at the Convention Center. The platform enables search functionality using relevant keywords such as “Procurement,” “RFP,” “Electrical,” or “Janitorial” to locate specific bids. Each listing provides detailed information on bidding procedures, key contacts, and submission requirements for efficient navigation.

For inquiries regarding registration, certification processes, contract details, or bidding procedures, users are advised to consult the Contact Us and Helpful Links sections available in the application menu. These sections list appropriate contacts for various operational support needs, ensuring users can obtain assistance as needed.
