In 2025, in the capital supplier portal New useful features have been added. Digital solutions make it easier for entrepreneurs to participate in public procurement, and they allow state and municipal institutions to purchase products at more competitive prices.
For example, a machine-based documentation analysis service has been created for users, the process of creating and managing product cards in the product catalog has been streamlined, and the portal's knowledge base search has been modernized. Furthermore, a new correspondence window has been added between customers and suppliers, allowing them to discuss important issues related to the conclusion and execution of contracts. Another new feature involves the platform's integration with the Gosklyuch mobile app, allowing users to sign offers for the supply of goods, performance of work, and provision of services electronically.
"In 2025, new services were launched on the supplier portal, including those using artificial intelligence. Some stages of contract conclusion were simplified, and a number of processes for creating and updating product cards in the product catalog were improved. In our work on the portal's functionality, we strive to improve user interaction with the resource and increase the transparency of procedures. The new options on the portal were introduced, in part, due to feedback from customers and entrepreneurs," said the deputy head of the Moscow City Council.
Department of Information Technology Roman Urnyshev.
The supplier portal was created in 2013 to automate small-volume procurement. Here, entrepreneurs from across the country can directly sell their products to state and municipal institutions in 44 regions, such as schools, clinics, kindergartens, and local governments. Public sector organizations purchase in-demand everyday goods through the portal, including stationery, office paper, water, construction, household, and medical supplies, electronics and office equipment, communications equipment, software, and more. The catalog currently contains over three million unique items.
The entire procurement process on the supplier portal is conducted digitally: contracts are concluded and executed remotely, without paper documents, and electronic signatures are used to authenticate transactions. More than 1,500 contracts are concluded on the platform daily.
"The Moscow Supplier Portal is accessible to entrepreneurs across Russia. This resource is attractive to businesses due to its ability to participate in interregional procurement, as well as the speed and transparency of its procedures and the high level of digitalization of its processes. The platform is constantly evolving, and more and more users are joining it. Currently, more than 395,000 entrepreneurs work on it, and over 90 percent of them are small and medium-sized businesses. The portal's popularity among the business community ensures a high level of competition, allowing customers to meet their needs for goods, services, and work at optimal prices. Today, more than 60,000 state and municipal customers from 44 regions of Russia purchase products on the portal," noted the head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy.
Artificial intelligence assistance
One of the important innovations on the supplier portal was the emergence of a new machine analysis service that provides users with summary of documentsThe tool is powered by generative artificial intelligence trained on a large language model of standard contract data. It automatically processes uploaded contracts and generates a concise summary of key parameters: contract subject matter, cost, supplier requirements, deadlines, delivery and payment terms, and other relevant details.
The new service allows suppliers to reduce the time spent reviewing documentation, thereby quickly selecting suitable sessions for participation. To use it, simply open one of the quotation sessions on the portal and select the file with the summary in the "Documents" section.
In 2025, the supplier portal's knowledge base search was also modernized. Search results are now faster and more accurate, with improved recognition of typos and transliterations. A new option, Smart Search, was added to the search bar. With it, users can immediately get a concise answer to their question. The system aggregates key points from all relevant materials posted in the knowledge base and compiles them into an informational summary. For a more detailed study of a topic, users should independently review articles on the supplier portal. A standard search will help find links to them.
In addition, the supplier portal has expanded its tools for concluding contracts. This can now be done using a QR code anddirect linkThis opportunity is available to entrepreneurs from any region of Russia who have not yet registered on the platform.
Currently, regional customers with access to the direct procurement format on the supplier portal can initiate contract signing using a QR code. They can use this option if they need to procure rare goods, or order work or services not yet available on the platform. In this case, when creating a contract, customers must manually enter the supplier's information and send them an invitation to sign the contract in the form of a QR code or a direct link. The supplier must click this link, complete registration on the portal, and sign the contract. This mechanism reduces time and simplifies the process of registering and concluding the first contract.
Templates for similar products and electronic signature of offers
New solutions were also implemented in the product catalog in 2025. Users can now create cards for a range of similar products, such as shoes, uniforms, and items in a wide range of sizes or colors. Previously, each product had to be registered separately, but now they can combine similar items into a single order form by setting up template specifications and images. For example, if a business owner plans to offer portal users a new model of sneakers, they can create a single product card that includes the full range of sizes and colors. This will significantly speed up the review process for new products in the catalog by moderators, save time for all parties involved in the purchasing process, and increase the transparency of sales procedures.
Another important change concerns the product or service card interface. Customers can now view the average price of similar products over the past three years and the period of the last active offer from a specific supplier. This allows government and municipal agencies to quickly assess the cost of the product on offer and select the most advantageous offer.
Furthermore, last year, the supplier portal was integrated with the Gosklyuch mobile app. Now, individuals using the platform can sign price quotes for their goods, work, or services, even from their mobile devices. This innovation optimizes user resources and enhances their information security: thanks to encryption, the app reliably protects data.
Furthermore, since last year, customers and suppliers have been able to discuss important issues related to the conclusion and execution of contracts through a correspondence window. This window appears after the customer sends the supplier a draft contract for signature. Currently, users of the supplier portal can ask questions on topics such as protocols of disagreements, concluding supplementary agreements, contract termination, filing claims, and more. This allows them to clarify details, promptly make appropriate changes to documents, and resolve many other issues directly on the website.
The supplier portal has simplified the contracting process for new users.More than 600,000 contracts were signed on the supplier portal in 2025.
Save time and get competitive prices
The supplier portal is constantly evolving to enhance user convenience and ensure the reliability of transactions. Today, its functionality covers virtually every stage of the procurement process—from posting product information to concluding an electronic contract. Convenient free services allow small and medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals, to optimize their labor and time resources.
For example, when a new product is uploaded to the catalog, the neural network determines its possible category within a few seconds based on a photograph and suggests suitable characteristics. Using the built-in API service, suppliers can download the entire catalog or part of it for product analysis and procurement strategy development.
Additionally, to optimize participation in bidding sessions, the portal features an automated bidding bot. It allows suppliers to participate in multiple mini-auctions simultaneously. While the bot doesn't guarantee victory in a bidding session, it does save entrepreneurs significant time. At the same time, customers receive goods or services at a more favorable price due to the high level of competition.
For entrepreneurs who have recently joined the platform, there's a special educational service called "Supplier School," dedicated to quotation sessions. It helps them learn more about mini-auctions and practice during a training session. This training helps newcomers quickly master the necessary skills and effectively participate in procurement processes.
Suppliers on the resource can be commercial organizations, sole proprietors, self-employed individuals, and individuals. Thanks to transparent and clear operating mechanisms, they can enter into contracts with customers both in their region and elsewhere.
You can register on the supplier portal using your email address or signature, as well as an account on mos.ru or other systems. Simplified registration via email allows you to view information on the portal but does not allow you to participate in procurement. Legally significant actions—signing offers, contracts, and other documents—require an electronic signature. Suppliers can advertise their products and services on the platform. This information will be available to all users, even those registered without an electronic signature.
The functional customer of the supplier portal is Moscow City Department for Competition Policy, technical development is supervised by the capital Department of Information Technology.
The development of electronic services for business is in line with the objectives of the national project "Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State" and the Moscow regional project "Digital Public Administration."
