Mexico CDMX Government Tenders Scraper & Monitor

Find active Mexico City government tenders and export structured procurement data for B2G sales, consulting, APIs, dashboards, and AI agents.

What it does

This Actor monitors public active procurement opportunities from CDMX Concurso Digital, the official Mexico City public procurement source used by the current MVP. It returns clean JSON records for active tenders, including tender IDs, titles, agencies, deadlines, procedure types, official detail URLs, and public document links.

The Actor is built for fast discovery: search by keyword, agency, deadline window, and procedure type, then use the dataset in Apify Console, API workflows, spreadsheets, BI tools, or MCP-powered AI agents.

Who it is for

• Government suppliers looking for new Mexico City opportunities.
• B2G sales teams building lead lists from public procurement data.
• Procurement consultants monitoring deadlines and public calls for clients.
• IT, security, facilities, construction, and service vendors tracking relevant bids.
• Developers and AI agents that need a public procurement API for CDMX tenders.

What data it returns

Each dataset item contains:

• tenderId — stable ID decoded from the official public detail URL
• title and description — official procedure text when available
• agency — publishing CDMX entity
• procedureType and procurementMethod
• character — national/international scope when available
• publicationDate and deadline
• documents — public document URLs, not downloaded files
• sourceUrl — official public detail page
• scrapedAt — UTC timestamp of the run
• optional changeType when change detection is enabled

How much it costs

Monetization is not active yet in this pre-publish build.

Recommended launch pricing for human review:

• Pay-per-event model for AI/MCP compatibility.
• apify-actor-start: $0.01 per run.
• apify-default-dataset-item: $0.00010 per result ($0.10 per 1,000 tender records).

Based on measured cloud test cost of about $0.00025 per run, this keeps early user costs low while covering platform usage. The final price shown by Apify should always be reviewed before publishing.
