Oman Tender Board Tenders Scraper

Oman government tenders from the Tender Board (etendering.tenderboard.gov.om), the Sultanate's central public procurement portal. Get one clean row per tender: tender number, Arabic title and English title when the notice prints one, buying entity, activity, grade bracket, publication date, offer deadline, document fee, bid guarantee and the public tender notice link.

Use it for tender monitoring and alerts: schedule a daily run with your keyword, entity or activity and send the new tenders to email, Slack or a spreadsheet.

Use cases

• Watch new Omani government tenders by keyword, buying entity, activity or deadline.
• Build a daily feed of open tenders before the offer deadline closes.
• Track one entity's pipeline, for example a ministry, a hospital or a university.
• Qualify opportunities: grade bracket, governorate, document fee and guarantee in one row.
• Keep the official tender notice together with each opportunity.

What it returns

Every row has source, country, tenderId, tenderNumber, title, titleEnglish, description, buyer, category, categoryGroups, subCategories, procurementMethod, status, publishedAt, deadlineAt, estimatedValue, currency, documents, tenderType, grade, governorate, wilayat, envelopeType, evaluationType, alternateOfferAllowed, saleStartAt, saleEndAt, questionsDeadline, openingAt, documentFee, documentFeeCurrency, bankGuarantee, url, changeType, changedFields, detailIssue, sourceQuery and scrapedAt.

• title and every other Arabic text are exactly as published. titleEnglish is filled only when the notice prints a different English value; nothing is machine-translated.
• Dates and times are ISO 8601 with the Oman offset (+04:00). publishedAt is a date only, because the notice prints the announcement date without a time.
• status is open while the offer deadline is ahead, closed after it, and unknown when no deadline is printed.
• documentFee and bankGuarantee are the printed values in Omani rials (documentFeeCurrency). A document fee is not a contract estimate, so estimatedValue and currency stay null.
• documents is null: the notice publishes its annexes as on-page forms, not as public download links.
• url is the public tender notice page for the row.
• If one tender's notice cannot be read, the row is still delivered with detailIssue explaining what was missing.
• Rows are deduplicated on the Tender Board's tender id.

Input

Field	Type	Default	What it does
keyword	string	""	Text anywhere in the tender number, title, description, entity, activity and grade.
buyer	string	""	Only tenders whose government entity contains this text.
category	string	""	Only tenders whose activity, category or description contains this text.
status	string	open	open for tenders still accepting offers, all for the whole published list back to 2018.
publishedFrom, publishedTo	string	""	Announcement date window, YYYY-MM-DD.
closingFrom, closingTo	string	""	Offer deadline window, YYYY-MM-DD.
maxResults	integer	20	Maximum tenders returned.
maxScanPages	integer	10	Listing pages to scan (50 tenders each) before the filters are applied.
includeDetails	boolean	true	Read each tender's notice for the extra fields. Slower.
onlyNewSinceLastRun	boolean	false	Return only tenders that are new or changed since the previous run.
stateKey	string	""	Optional name for the saved feed; derived from the filters when empty.

All filters are optional and can be combined. An empty input returns the current open tenders, newest first.

Example queries

Maintenance and cleaning tenders that close in the next three weeks:

{
  "keyword": "صيانة",
  "closingFrom": "2026-11-10",
  "closingTo": "2026-12-01",
  "maxResults": 30
}

One buying entity's open tenders, without the slower notice reads:

{"buyer": "وزارة الصحة", "maxResults": 50, "includeDetails": false}

A daily alert feed for construction activity:

{"category": "المقاولات", "onlyNewSinceLastRun": true, "stateKey": "construction-daily"}

Use it as a daily feed

Turn on onlyNewSinceLastRun and schedule the Actor once a day. The first run returns every matching tender; later runs return only tenders that are new, or whose deadline, status, title or documents changed, with changeType set to new or changed and changedFields listing what moved. Tenders that have not changed are not delivered and not charged. Each saved search keeps its own history, so different keywords stay separate; stateKey names the history explicitly.

Limits and caveats

• The public list holds 50 tenders per page and does not filter on the server, so each run scans maxScanPages pages and applies your filters locally. The current open tenders sit in the first pages; raise maxScanPages for older windows.
• Runs with includeDetails on read one extra page per tender and take longer than list-only runs.
• The announcement date and the English title are printed on the tender notice, so publishedFrom/publishedTo always read notices even when includeDetails is off.
• Estimated contract values are not published; estimatedValue and currency remain null.
• If the portal cannot be read, the run stops with a plain status message; rows already collected stay in the dataset.
• If nothing matches, the run succeeds with an empty dataset.

FAQ

How fresh is the data? Every run reads the Tender Board live.

How do I get only new tenders each day? Turn on onlyNewSinceLastRun and schedule a daily run. Tenders you have already received are not sent again.

Can I search in English? Filters are matched against the public list, which the agencies write in Arabic, so search with Arabic words such as توريد (supply) or صيانة (maintenance). English words match only where an agency wrote them in the list text. Many notices carry an English title, which is delivered in titleEnglish but is read after the filters.

Do I get the tender documents? The notice publishes its annexes as on-page forms; url opens the official notice, where they are available.

What if a notice fails? The tender row is still delivered with detailIssue set.

Price

You pay per result: each delivered tender row is one result, plus a small run-start charge. The run-start event is charged per GB of memory; the default 512 MB run is one start event. The start is charged even if the run saves no results. Platform usage is included in the price.
