How We Collect Data
GovBid checks each source daily for new tenders. We pull data directly from official government APIs and procurement portals — not from third-party resellers. Each tender is processed by AI to generate a plain-English summary, classify it by industry, and extract key details like location, closing date, and estimated value.
Tenders are automatically removed when they close or are cancelled. The counts above reflect currently open opportunities only and update every few hours.
