NJ Government Bid Alerts — Apify Actor

A CheerioCrawler-based Apify Actor that scrapes open solicitations (bids/RFPs) from the BidNetDirect New Jersey Purchasing Group page.

Why Cheerio?

The target page serves static HTML tables. Cheerio is ~10× faster and drastically cheaper than Playwright — no browser overhead, no JavaScript execution cost. Perfect for this use case.

Data Extracted

Each scraped bid produces a dataset item with:

Field	Description
`title`	Solicitation/bid title
`location`	Geographic region (county, municipality, or state)
`publishedDate`	Date published (MM/DD/YYYY)
`closingDate`	Submission deadline (MM/DD/YYYY)
`detailUrl`	Absolute URL to the bid detail page
`source`	Always `"BidNetDirect - New Jersey Purchasing Group"`
`scrapedAt`	ISO 8601 scrape timestamp

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
`keyword`	string	`""`	Optional — filter bids whose title contains this text (case-insensitive)
`maxResults`	integer	`50`	Maximum number of bids to return (`0` = no limit)
`county`	string	`""`	Optional — filter bids whose location contains this text (case-insensitive)

Output

Structured JSON dataset in the Apify dataset storage.

PPE (Pay Per Event) Charges

search-start — $0.005 — charged once per run at startup

Notes

The scraper follows pagination via the "Next" link on the page.
Respects maxResults — stops enqueuing new pages once the limit is reached.
Handles the "no bids" empty state gracefully.
Retries failed requests up to 3 times.
