--- title: "SLED (State, Local, Education) in Discover" slug: "sled-in-discover" description: "Discover state procurement opportunities across the U.S. with direct links to official bid websites for seamless access to vital contracts." updated: 2026-10-13T15:03:42Z published: 2026-10-13T15:03:42Z canonical: "support.govdash.com/sled-in-discover" --- > ## Documentation Index > Fetch the complete documentation index at: https://support.govdash.com/llms.txt > Use this file to discover all available pages before exploring further. # SLED (State, Local, Education) in Discover ## Overview Discover includes SLED (State, Local, Education) opportunities from state procurement websites across the U.S. GovDash adds new SLED opportunities once a day, and each one links back to the official bid website. --- ## Finding SLED Opportunities 1. Go to **Discover**, select the **Search** tab, then select **Public**. 2. Click **Filters**, then **Source System**, and select **SLED**. A **Source Must SLED** filter appears next to **Filters**. To narrow your results, add other filters such as **Status**, **Organization**, **Location** or **Due Date**. ![Source System filter with SLED selected](https://cdn.us.document360.io/104c3542-bffe-46a6-901f-aa7a848851a4/Images/Setting/sled-filter.png) > [!NOTE] > Not seeing any SLED opportunities? > > Your search profile's criteria still apply. If its **MUST MATCH** criteria only include federal agencies or codes, SLED opportunities are hidden. Click the profile name, then **Switch Profile**, and select **No profile** or a profile built for state and local work. ### SLED Opportunity Cards SLED opportunities have a red **SLED** tag. Next to the dates, the card shows the state organization and the state, such as **TX**. ![SLED tag and state on a Discover card](https://cdn.us.document360.io/104c3542-bffe-46a6-901f-aa7a848851a4/Images/Setting/sled-card.png) --- ## SLED Opportunity Pages Click a card's title to open its opportunity page. SLED pages work like other [opportunity pages](/v1/docs/discover-opportunity-records), with a few differences: - Click **SLED** at the top of the page, or the **SLED** link under **Source**, to open the opportunity on the state's bid website. - **Entity** shows the state organization instead of **Agency**. - **Solicitation Description** shows the description from the state website. - **Solicitation Documents** lists the files downloaded from the state website. - There's no **Similar** tab, and many states don't list contacts. ![SLED opportunity page with the source links](https://cdn.us.document360.io/104c3542-bffe-46a6-901f-aa7a848851a4/Images/Setting/sled-detail.png) ### Adding SLED Opportunities to Your Pipeline When you add a SLED opportunity to your Pipeline, its documents are automatically downloaded and attached to the record. This makes it quick and easy to get started with your capture process, including [document shreds](/v1/docs/solicitation-documents#shreds), [capability matrices](/v1/docs/capability-matrices) and [team collaboration functionality](/v1/docs/activity-tasks-and-notes). --- ## List of State Procurement Sources GovDash utilizes the following state sources in order to source opportunities in

often are new SLED opportunities added? GovDash adds new SLED opportunities to Discover once a day. #### Why don't I see any SLED opportunities? Your search profile's criteria still apply to SLED results. If the profile's **MUST MATCH** criteria only include federal agencies or codes, SLED opportunities are hidden. Switch to **No profile** or a profile built for state and local work. #### Which states does GovDash pull SLED opportunities from? See the **List of State Procurement Sources** table above for every state and territory source GovDash uses. #### Why doesn't a SLED opportunity have a Similar tab or contacts? The **Similar** tab is only available for SAM.gov opportunities. Contacts only appear when the state lists them on its bid website.
