How to Get Government Tender Data From 14 Procurement Portals
Every public tender is published on an official procurement portal — but each country runs its own, with its own search, formats, and quirks. This guide covers bulk exports from 14 portals across the US, EU, Asia-Pacific, and Ukraine: search by industry keyword, get structured tender records.
Why pull tender data yourself
Tender-alert services resell portal data on a delay, filtered through their own category taxonomy. Pulling from the portal directly gets you the full notice — title, buyer, deadline, value, documents — as soon as it publishes, filtered by the keywords that describe your business. Our users search terms like "roofing", "construction", "IT services", and "digital marketing": vendor-side teams hunting the next contract in their niche.
SAM.gov data export: US federal contracts
The SAM.gov scraper covers the US federal source of record: contract opportunities, award notices, exclusion lists, and grant records. Search by keyword, NAICS code, agency, or state. Pair it with the USAspending crawler to see what agencies actually paid on past awards — the bid side and the spend side of the same market.
TED data download: EU tenders above threshold
TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) publishes every EU tender above the procurement thresholds — roughly 2,400 notices a day. The export returns tender and award notices with buyer, CPV codes, values, and deadlines. For below-threshold tenders that never reach TED, the EU national portals scraper covers eight country portals directly.
AusTender and CanadaBuys exports
The AusTender scraper exports Australian federal tenders and contract notices; the CanadaBuys scraper covers Canada's federal tender portal. Both take keyword and category filters and return the standard notice fields, so a multi-country pipeline can share one schema.
Asia-Pacific portals: GeBIZ, India CPPP, PhilGEPS
Three portals cover the region's major public buyers. Singapore's GeBIZ scraper is popular with IT and services vendors — "application development" is its most-searched term on our platform. The India eProcure (CPPP) scraper covers central and state tenders, and the PhilGEPS scraper covers the Philippines' government procurement system.
US state and local: BidNet, California, DIBBS, DOT lettings
Below the federal level, four sources matter. BidNet Direct aggregates state and local government bids across participating agencies. California eProcure covers the largest state market on its own. The DIBBS scraper exports Defense Logistics Agency RFQs — a niche with steady volume for parts suppliers. And the State DOT bid lettings aggregator covers highway construction lettings across state DOTs, where "construction" keyword searches concentrate.
Ukraine reconstruction contracts via ProZorro
The ProZorro reconstruction contracts scraper tracks Ukraine's public reconstruction procurement — a distinct market that international contractors and monitoring organizations both watch.

Building a tender-alert pipeline
The pattern our users converge on: run the relevant portal exports daily with your industry keywords, dedupe by notice ID, and diff against yesterday's set — new rows are your alerts. Each scraper prices per record retrieved, so a daily keyword sweep costs cents, and adding a second country is adding one more input, not negotiating another subscription.
