## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## GeBIZ Singapore Government Procurement Scraper

Scrape tender opportunities from [GeBIZ](https://www.gebiz.gov.sg) (Government Electronic Business), Singapore's sole official government procurement portal. Extract tender IDs, agency names, procurement categories, closing dates, and direct contact details for procurement officers — structured and ready for export.

GeBIZ publishes every public sector procurement in Singapore: ministries, statutory boards, schools, and government-linked entities. The portal lists approximately 7,100 open tenders at any time, with 50–100 new tenders posted daily.

### What Data This Scraper Extracts

Each record includes up to 16 fields depending on whether detail-page fetching is enabled:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `tenderId` | Document code (e.g., `MOESCHETQ26001557`) |
| `title` | Full tender title as published |
| `agency` | Publishing government agency |
| `publishedDate` | Date the tender was posted |
| `closingDate` | Submission deadline (date and time) |
| `tenderType` | Quotation, Open Tender, etc. |
| `category` | Procurement category path (e.g., `IT => Software`) |
| `status` | `OPEN`, `CLOSED`, or `AWARDED` |
| `procurementMethod` | Open Tender, Open Quotation, Selective Tender, etc. |
| `procurementNature` | Period Contract or Non Period Contract |
| `contactPerson` | Procurement officer name |
| `contactEmail` | Procurement officer email address |
| `contactPhone` | Procurement officer direct phone number |
| `description` | Tender remarks and scope description |
| `tenderUrl` | Direct URL to the tender on GeBIZ |
| `scrapedAt` | ISO 8601 timestamp of when the record was scraped |

`procurementMethod`, `procurementNature`, `contactPerson`, `contactEmail`, `contactPhone`, and `description` are only populated when `fetchDetails: true` (the default).

### GeBIZ Scraper Input Parameters

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `maxItems` | integer | `20` | Maximum number of tenders to collect (up to 10,000) |
| `keyword` | string | — | Filter tenders by keyword in the title |
| `statusFilter` | string | `open` | Tender status: `open`, `closed`, or `all` |
| `fetchDetails` | boolean | `true` | Visit each tender detail page for contact info, procurement method, and description |

#### Example Inputs

Scrape 50 open tenders with full contact details:

```json
{
  "maxItems": 50,
  "statusFilter": "open",
  "fetchDetails": true
}
````

Fast listing-only scrape — no detail pages, ~10x faster:

```json
{
  "maxItems": 200,
  "statusFilter": "open",
  "fetchDetails": false
}
```

Search for IT tenders specifically:

```json
{
  "maxItems": 100,
  "keyword": "software",
  "statusFilter": "open",
  "fetchDetails": true
}
```

### GeBIZ Scraper Sample Output

```json
{
  "tenderId": "MOE000ETQ26000094",
  "title": "SUPPLY, DELIVERY, INSTALLATION, TESTING AND COMMISSIONING OF AN AUTONOMOUS ROBOTIC SWEEPER SYSTEM",
  "agency": "Ministry of Education",
  "publishedDate": "20 Apr 2026 09:50PM",

  "scrapedAt": "2026-04-20T14:16:02.024Z"
}
```

### Who Uses GeBIZ Tender Data

- **Suppliers and contractors** — monitor new procurement opportunities in their sector before the closing date
- **Business development teams** — identify which Singapore government agencies are spending in your category
- **Market research and consulting** — analyze procurement patterns and budget distribution across the public sector
- **Lead generation** — build contact lists of procurement officers across Singapore's ministries and statutory boards
- **Competitive intelligence** — track which vendors are active across tender categories and contract types

### Performance and Rate Limits

GeBIZ is a JSF (JavaServer Faces) application with session-bound pagination. The scraper manages ViewState tokens and cookie sessions automatically. No proxy is required — the portal has no geo-restrictions or CAPTCHA.

| Mode | Speed | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| `fetchDetails: false` | ~10 tenders/second | Bulk listing scans, opportunity monitoring |
| `fetchDetails: true` | ~1 tender/second | Contact extraction, detailed analysis |

Examples:

- 20 tenders with full details: ~35 seconds
- 100 tenders listing-only: ~10 seconds
- 1,000 tenders listing-only: ~2 minutes

The scraper applies a 300ms delay between pagination requests and a 500ms delay between detail page fetches as a courtesy to the portal.

### Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event (PPE) pricing:

- **$0.10** per actor start
- **$0.01** per tender record saved

A run collecting 100 tenders costs approximately $1.10 total.

### Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I scrape Singapore government tenders from GeBIZ?**
Run this actor with your desired `maxItems` and `statusFilter`. Set `fetchDetails: true` (default) to get contact person name, email, and phone from each tender's detail page. Results export as JSON, CSV, or via the Apify API.

**Does the GeBIZ scraper require a proxy?**
No. GeBIZ has no geo-blocking, CAPTCHA, or rate limiting on standard HTTP requests. The actor runs without any proxy configuration.

**How many tenders are on GeBIZ?**
Approximately 7,100 open tenders at any given time. Singapore government agencies post 50–100 new tenders per day. Set `maxItems` up to 10,000 to collect the full open tender listing.

**What procurement categories does GeBIZ cover?**
All Singapore public sector procurement: IT and software, construction and facilities, professional services, healthcare, education, security, logistics, and more. Use the `keyword` field to filter by category or subject matter.

**Can I scrape closed or awarded GeBIZ tenders?**
Yes. Set `statusFilter` to `closed` or `all`. Awarded tenders include additional fields on the detail page that are captured when `fetchDetails: true`.

**How often should I run the scraper for fresh data?**
For continuous opportunity monitoring, run daily. GeBIZ does not provide a change feed or RSS, so re-scraping the open tender listing is the standard approach.

**Is scraping GeBIZ legal?**
GeBIZ's robots.txt allows scraping (only `/scripts/` is disallowed). The portal is a public government resource. Always review the site's terms of use before commercial use of the data.
