Log onto your Network service and click the blue ‘Projects’ tab at the top of the page.

Enter your search criteria to target your best opportunities. The most popular Project Search page categories are Geography, Project Type, Action Stage, Bid Date and Valuation.
Search Criteria Tip: The more search categories you include in your search, the fewer projects will be returned. Start with a broader search. You can always edit your search to get more fine tuned results. That way you won’t miss a new business opportunity!
After you’ve finished entering in all your criteria, scroll down to the bottom of the Project Search page to the ‘Automated Notifications’ section. Select how often you need to have your Project Alerts delivered: Daily, Weekly or Bi-weekly.

Next, save your new search. Click the blue ‘Save as’ button that appears at the bottom of the Project Search page. A window will open asking you to name your search. Your new saved search will now appear in the drop down menu at the top of the Project Search page.

Congratulations. You’ve just created a saved search that is set to run automatically with the results emailed directly to you!
If you would like to view details for a project listed in the summary view, click on the News, Plans or Spec link. To run the Saved Search to view all of the listed projects, simply click the displayed link.
Now it’s time to track the projects that you’re really interested in - or not. Start by running your saved search. Next, select the projects you want to track.
Now, select the Tracking folder you want to put these projects in from the drop down menu. Your choices are ‘My Projects’, ‘Hidden Projects’ and ‘Create a new folder’. Use the ‘Hidden Projects’ folder to move projects you DON’T want to see in future search results. If you’re not going to create a lot of Tracking folders, just choose ‘My Projects’. Otherwise, make a new folder and follow the prompts. When you’ve selected the projects you would like to track and the Tracking folder to put them in, click the blue ‘Track’ button.

Bonus Tip: Get Alerts on Your Tracked Projects
After you select projects you want to track (and the Tracking folder you want to put them in), click the blue ‘Alert’ button. When you do this, you’ll be alerted automatically when that project has been updated with new information. A separate email will be sent out daily with a summary of all your updated Tracked projects.
