World Bank Tenders & Contract Awards Feed (daily alerts)

World Bank Tenders & Contract Awards Feed: New Bids, Consultant EOIs & Awards Daily

Get every new World Bank-financed procurement notice (invitations for bids, consultant requests for expressions of interest and contract awards across 140+ borrower countries) as clean JSON/CSV/Excel. Filter by country, region, goods/works/consulting, keyword, international competition or estimated value, and run it on a schedule with "new since last run" mode so you only get (and pay for) notices you have not seen.

Built on the official World Bank procurement notices API: no API key, no login, no scraping of web pages.

Who it's for

• Contractors, suppliers and consulting firms bidding on development-bank projects: a daily list of new tenders and EOIs in your countries and sectors, with deadlines and World Bank estimates.
• Business development teams and bid consultants: separate saved searches per client or region (stateKey), delivered to Slack, email, Google Sheets or a CRM through Apify integrations.
• Market intelligence: contract awards show which companies win which contracts, where, and for how much.
• Researchers, journalists and NGOs following development finance by country or sector.

What you get

• Opportunity: title, notice type, bid reference, procurement group (goods / works / consulting / non-consulting) and method, market approach (international vs national), UNSPSC categories, language.
• Project and financing: country, region, project ID and name, IDA/IBRD financing IDs, sectors, implementing agency and its website.
• Money and dates: World Bank estimate (USD), submission deadline and time, posting date.
• Awards: awarded companies (organisations only), their countries, signed contract price and currency, award notification date, contract duration.
• Links: official notice page and project page.

Quick start

1. Click Try for free and run the default input {}: the 30 newest notices from the last 7 days (10 bids, 10 EOIs, 10 awards) in a few seconds.
2. Narrow it down, for example open goods and works tenders in Kenya and Nigeria:

{ "noticeKinds": ["bids"], "countries": ["KE", "NG"], "procurementGroups": ["goods", "works"], "onlyOpen": true, "maxItems": 100 }

3. For alerts, set "mode": "sinceLastRun" and schedule the Actor daily. Each run returns only notices you have not received yet.

A run summary is saved to the OUTPUT record: window, total matches per notice kind, filters dropped and suppliers withheld.

Data source, timing and fair use

• Source: World Bank procurement notices (projects.worldbank.org) via the public World Bank Search API, licensed CC BY 4.0 (attribution: The World Bank). This Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by the World Bank.
• Notices are posted on working days and usually appear in the API 1-3 days after their posting date, which is why the default window is 7 days and sinceLastRun keeps a 5-day overlap (deduplicated, so you never get a notice twice).
• Requests are few and sequential (one API page per notice kind for a default run) with retries and back-off.
• Privacy: contact names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, rejected bidders and beneficial-ownership details in the notices are never output. Awarded suppliers are output only when clearly an organisation (legal form such as Ltd, SARL, S.A., PLC, Ltda; institutional names; single-word brands). Individual consultants and possible sole traders are withheld and counted in suppliersWithheld; the contract price is still shown.
• Award prices are in the contract currency; estimates are in US dollars.

Pricing

Pay per event (Apify takes care of billing; you only pay for what is delivered):

Event	Price	Charged
apify-actor-start	$0.005	once per run
notice-record	$0.003	per notice delivered

A default test run (30 notices) costs about $0.095. A daily filtered alert (~10 notices/day) costs about $0.035/day. maxItems and Apify's max cost per run cap your spend; the Actor stops delivering when your budget is reached, so you are never charged for more than you set. No separate platform-usage charges: compute is included in the event prices.

FAQ

Does it cover other development banks (ADB, AfDB, IDB)? No, World Bank (IBRD/IDA) financed procurement only. For EU public tenders see our EU TED tenders feed.

Why is an award missing the supplier name? The winner was an individual consultant or may be a sole trader, so the name is withheld for privacy. The notice link has the full official text.

Why do some notices have dates a few days back? publishedDate is the World Bank posting date; the API usually lists notices 1-3 days later.

Which languages? Notices are published in the language of the borrower (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic ...). Keywords match the notice text as written.

Can I backfill? Yes, up to 120 days with lookbackDays and a higher maxItems.
