What you get

Every record has the same fields, whatever the state:

Field	Example
state	NC
solicitationNumber	46-DNCR-27-2180
title	Fire Alarm Testing and Inspection for the NC Zoo Project
agency	DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES
status	Open
postedAt	2026-10-16T19:21:47.000Z
bidOpeningAt / bidOpeningLocal	due or opening date, as an ISO instant and in the state's local time
url	the official solicitation page or document

Some fields depend on the state:

• South Carolina adds category, description and detailsUrl.
• Louisiana adds documents, the names and links of the attachments.
• With Include details, North Carolina adds the solicitation type, commodity code, mandatory conference and special instructions.
• With Include details, Florida adds the description, UNSPSC commodityCodes and document names.

Who uses it

• Contractors and suppliers who sell to public buyers in the Southeast and want one daily list of new opportunities in their trade. Search for example "paving", "roofing", "janitorial" or "IT services".
• Bid-alert services and consultants feeding their own notifications or CRM.
• Market researchers tracking public demand by state, agency and category.

How to use it

1. Choose the states. The default is North Carolina only, which is the fastest.
2. Optionally set a keyword, a posted since date and Maximum results.
3. For a daily alert, enable Only new solicitations and add a schedule (Apify Console → Schedules). The first run returns the latest bids and records the current lists. Each later run returns only what was posted since.
4. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or connect to Google Sheets, Slack, Zapier or Make.

Timing: South Carolina asks crawlers to wait 10 seconds between pages, and this Actor respects it, so including SC adds about 3 minutes to a run. The other states take seconds.

Reliability

• Reads each portal the way a browser does, one page at a time with a pause between requests. No proxies, no logins, no workarounds. Pages that a portal asks crawlers to avoid are never read.
• Quality checks on every run, per state: if a portal changes its layout or returns incomplete records, the run fails with a clear message that names the state, instead of giving you wrong data.

Privacy

The output holds solicitation data only:

• buyer names, phone numbers and emails are never collected (SC "Direct Inquiries To / Buyer Phone / Buyer Email", FL response contact, NC solicitation owner);
• emails and phone numbers written inside descriptions are replaced with [removed];
• documents are linked, never read.

FAQ

Is this data public? Yes. Every portal publishes these solicitations for anyone to read without an account.

Can you add another state? States are added only when their portal can be read cleanly, without logins or workarounds, and its rules allow it. Suggestions are welcome on the Issues tab.

This Actor is independent and not affiliated with any of the states it covers.
