Improve Transparency and Demonstrate Community Impact of Government-Funded Infrastructure Projects

B2Gnow launches Public Dashboards to provide vendors, contractors, certifiers, and all stakeholders with easy and secure access to program metrics

PHOENIX, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As organizations working on public contracting and compliance programs face mounting pressure to increase transparency and modernize operations, delivering timely, self-service program insights has become increasingly important.

Recognizing this need, B2Gnow, the national leader in vendor management, labor compliance, and grant management software solutions, today highlighted the release of its Public Dashboards module.

With B2Gnow's Public Dashboards, public agencies, certifiers, and general contractors can deliver secure, self-service program insights for all program stakeholders and reduce staff inquiry workloads by integrating prebuilt reports using B2Gnow's Power Analytics, powered by Microsoft Power BI.

Reports from B2Gnow's Public Dashboards are available on an agency's portal – without the need for a login – and provide insight into infrastructure project program data. For example, these reports can highlight construction firm graduation statuses and project goal tracking, streamlining the process for public agencies, certified vendors, and prime contractors who need this information to complete work on public infrastructure projects.

"B2Gnow Public Dashboards and the bundled reports give all project stakeholders immediate, secure answers to critical application and graduation status questions, allowing agency staff to step away from manual inquiry management and focus on high-value compliance oversight," John Garay, Vice President of Product for B2Gnow, said. "Agencies and general contractors gain complete control over their narrative while boosting transparency across their entire stakeholder community."

This transparency helps agencies and vendors by making certification application status or vendor graduation status available without requiring a login. For instance, vendors waiting to learn of their certification status can view their standing in the application process without needing to email or call the agency. Contractors can look up the graduation status of a subcontractor and make better-informed participation decisions. The public can use this transparency to better understand how local agencies spend tax dollars in the community.

The bundled reports with B2Gnow's Public Dashboards address these challenges directly by giving external stakeholders instant, transparent status access without requiring sign-in credentials into agency internal systems. These customized public dashboards help streamline vendor communication and the narrative surrounding the community impact of these programs.
