Seattle, WA-June 22, 2009 - Since the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) was signed into law in February 2009, Onvia has been tracking ARRA-funded projects nationwide. Of the over $300 billion to be spent directly on economic recovery-related initiatives, approximately two-thirds of the funding will be spent by state, local and educational agencies.

To help businesses across the nation obtain the information they need to plan, market, and sell to ARRA-funded government agencies and educational institutions, Onvia offers the Recovery Contacts Sourcebook. Drawn from the Onvia Online Database of over 500,000 decision makers and buyers, the Onvia Recovery Contacts Sourcebook contains current state and local agency contacts for ARRA-funded projects through the end of May 2009.

Onvia, a Seattle-based technology firm, uses a sophisticated taxonomy to track government spending events at more than 89,000 federal, state and local government agencies. Because of its unique tracking system developed over the last ten years, Onvia can identify, collect, and compile in a standardized format Advance Notices, Bids, RFPs, Amendments, and Awards from government agencies in a comprehensive, timely and accurate manner.

“This list of contact information is an essential tool for businesses that need to connect with and market to government decision makers at the state and local levels where the bulk of the economic recovery funding will be spent,” said Onvia Chief Solutions Officer Michael Balsam. “Onvia is the recognized authority on the tracking of ARRA-funded projects, and now the Onvia Recovery Contacts Sourcebook provides businesses the ability to focus their business development efforts and reach the right audience at the right time in the purchasing process.”
