About BidsNear
BidsNear helps small and mid-size contractors find public-sector work: roofing, flooring, painting, renovation, drywall, windows and carpentry.
Government buyers publish thousands of notices a year, but the official portals are built for procurement officers, not for a painter or a roofer deciding whether a job is worth a bid. We take the public record and put it in a form a trades business can use: what the buyer wants, when it closes, who else has won similar work and for how much.
What is on the site
- Canadian tenders 3,888 construction and trades notices from CanadaBuys, open and closed.
- US awards 6,774 federal contract awards from USAspending.gov, with contractor profiles and competition data.
- Search filters by trade, province or state, status and size, with a map.
What we are not
We are not a government agency and we do not run the tenders. Every page links to the official notice, and that notice is the only authority on deadlines and requirements. See the methodology for how data is collected and where it can be wrong.
