Gulf Tenders Radar: Oman, UAE, Jordan & Lebanon

Gulf Tenders Radar collects open government tenders from Oman, the UAE, Jordan and Lebanon. It reads the Oman Tender Board, UAE federal tenders from the Ministry of Finance, Jordan's JONEPS portal and Lebanon's Public Procurement Authority. It returns every tender in one format. Titles come in Arabic and English where the portal provides them.

It covers two GCC states, Oman and the UAE, plus Jordan and Lebanon. Use it as one Middle East tender feed for bid managers, contractors and AI agents.

Every tender also gets an English sector, a procurement type and the days left until the deadline. Filter by sector, or ask for tenders closing within the next N days.

Schedule it daily with monitor mode on. Each run then returns only tenders you have not seen before.

It can also return Oman bid-opening results: who bid on a tender and at what price. Use them to study competitors and price your next bid.

A Lebanon record with the derived fields:

{
  "id": "lebanon-ppa:13203",
  "country": "LB",
  "referenceNumber": "100",
  "titleAr": "أشغال تزفيت طرقات ضمن النطاق البلدي",
  "agency": "Municipality of Ain Saade",
  "tenderType": "Open",
  "publishedAt": "2026-10-21",
  "closingAt": "2026-11-18T09:33:00+02:00",
  "currency": "LBP",
  "detailUrl": "https://www.ppa.gov.lb/en/tenders/details/13203",
  "procurementType": "Works",
  "sector": "Construction and Works",
  "daysUntilClose": 28
}

Some fields stay empty for some countries. Oman's list shows no publish date. Jordan's, the UAE's and Lebanon's lists show no fee. The Actor never guesses a missing portal value.

Sectors and deadlines

The portals use different categories, many only in Arabic. The Actor adds three fields so you can compare tenders across countries:

• procurementType comes from the portal category when there is one. Otherwise it comes from title words such as "supply", "توريد" or "أشغال". It stays empty when the title gives no clue.
• sector is one of 15 English sectors. The Actor matches Arabic and English title words, then the portal category. It is a best guess from the title. Tenders with no matching word get Other.
• daysUntilClose counts calendar days in the issuing country's time zone.

Use the Sectors filter to keep only some sectors. Use Closing within N days for a closing-soon list. Example: {"sectors": ["IT and Telecom"], "closingWithinDays": 7} returns IT tenders that close this week.

Oman bid-opening results

Turn on Include Oman bid results to also get Oman tenders whose bids were opened in the last N days (default 7). Each record lists every bidder from the official opening report:

{
  "stage": "bids-opened",
  "referenceNumber": "4065/2026/MOH/DGHSNBP-213",
  "openedAt": "2026-10-20T09:54:00+04:00",
  "currency": "OMR",
  "bids": [
    { "rank": "1-[1]", "company": "MIA FOR INTEGRATED PROJECTS", "offerType": "Main", "totalQuotedValue": 932.326, "status": "Financial Bid Opened" },
    { "rank": "2-[1]", "company": "ELITE DIGITAL CO", "offerType": "Main", "totalQuotedValue": 1045.065, "status": "Financial Bid Opened" }
  ]
}

• The portal opens about 50 tenders a day. Seven days is roughly 350 reports and takes about 15 minutes.
• Bid results respect your keywords, monitor mode and maximum tenders.
• A tender whose report lists no bids costs only the tender event.

How to monitor new tenders

1. Pick the countries.
2. Add keywords if you want only some tenders. Use Arabic, English or both. Example: software, برمجيات, information technology.
3. Turn on Monitor mode and schedule the Actor daily. Each run returns only new tenders.
4. Connect the output to Google Sheets, Slack, email or your CRM through Apify integrations.

Keyword matching

• English keywords match whole words. "IT" matches "IT helpdesk" and skips "facilities".
• Arabic keywords match anywhere inside a word. "حاسوب" also matches "الحاسوب".
• Short Arabic keywords can match inside unrelated words. "حاسب" also matches "المحاسبة" (accounting). Use longer keywords to avoid this.

Monitor mode

Monitor mode remembers which tenders it returned before. Use a different Monitor name (monitorName) for each watch list. Example: one name for IT tenders and another for construction tenders.

Input

Option	Default	Meaning
Countries	All	OM, JO, AE, LB
Keywords	None	Keep only matching tenders
Sectors	All	Keep only tenders in these English sectors
Issuing agencies	All	Keep only tenders from agencies whose name has one of these words, Arabic or English
Only open tenders	On	Skip tenders whose deadline has passed
Closing within N days	0 (off)	Keep only tenders that close within N days
Published within N days	0 (off)	Keep only tenders published in the last N days. Oman lists no publish date, so Oman tenders are kept
Monitor mode	Off	Return only tenders not returned before
Monitor name	default	Name of the monitor memory. The old field name stateKey still works
Maximum tenders	100	Stop after this many tenders, shared between countries (see below). Set 0 for no limit
Maximum list pages per country	0 (all)	For quick tests
Include Oman bid results	Off	Add recently opened Oman tenders with their bidders
Bid results from the last N days	7	How far back to read bid results

How the tender limit is shared

When you pick several countries, Maximum tenders is shared between them. Each country first gets an equal part. With the default of 100 and four countries, each gets 25. If a country has fewer matching tenders than its part, the unused slots go to the other countries. Oman bid results count as one more part. A run with one country uses the whole limit for that country. Set the limit to 0 to get every tender.

Pricing

You pay for each tender saved to your dataset. A tender saved with an Oman bid report costs one extra bid-report event. Tenders skipped by your filters cost nothing.

Event	Free plan	GOLD plan and higher
Run start	$0.012	$0.012
Tender	$0.005 ($5.00 per 1,000)	$0.004 ($4.00 per 1,000)

Tenders in one run	Free plan	GOLD plan and higher
100	$0.512	$0.412
1,000	$5.012	$4.012

Costs include the run start fee. The SILVER plan pays a price between the two columns.

Data sources and use

• All data comes from public pages that need no login.
• The Actor sends a small number of slow requests to each portal.
• It collects tender facts and links only. It does not download tender documents or collect personal contact details.
• Always check the official portal before you bid. Portals can change deadlines and terms.

Run time

A full run of all four countries takes about 6 minutes.

FAQ

Which countries does it cover?

Oman, UAE federal, Jordan and Lebanon tenders. Emirate-level portals, such as Abu Dhabi and Dubai, are outside the current scope. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain are outside the current scope too. Their portals either block automated access or require written permission to republish their data.

Can I search in Arabic?

Yes. Add Arabic keywords such as برمجيات or صيانة. You can mix Arabic and English keywords in one run.

Can an AI agent use it?

Yes. Agents can find and run it through the Apify MCP server or the Apify API. The input has plain field names, and the output uses one schema for all countries.

How do I get alerts for new tenders?

Turn on monitor mode and schedule a daily run. Then connect the dataset to email, Slack or Google Sheets through Apify integrations.

Is the data official?

The data comes from the public pages of each government portal. Each tender links back to its portal. Check the portal before you bid.
