Everything you need
Stop checking dozens of websites and PDF bulletins. TenderFinder brings every govt tender to you, filtered for your business.
New government tenders matching your keywords, emailed every morning. Never hear about an RFQ after it closed again.
Cut hundreds of tenders down to the ones you can actually win, across all 9 provinces, national departments and 28 categories.
We email you before a tender closes, and again before any compulsory briefing, so a mandatory site meeting never catches you out.
Open official tender documents, briefing details and the eTenders source link for every listing. No portal-hopping.
Bookmark the tenders you are chasing and re-run your favourite searches in one click, from any device.
Simple rand pricing, PayFast billing and cancel any time. Made for SMMEs, not procurement departments.
On every plan
A government tender is rarely one page. Between the specification, the SBD forms and the returnable schedules, working out what is actually being asked for is most of the job. Every plan includes it: 1 AI tender analysis a week on Free, 1 AI tender analysis a day on Starter and 5 AI tender analyses a day on Pro.
What the department is asking for, where the work is, what the documents say about the requirements, how the bid gets scored, and the mistakes that get bids like this thrown out.
The forms you must return and the documents to gather, listed as tasks you can tick off with the wording quoted, plus a plan that works backwards from the closing date.
We open the tender's PDF documents, up to 4 of them, the same files you download from us, not just the advert. The analysis lists which files it read and which it could not, so you know what it has not seen.
Take the summary, the checklist and the dates away as one printable document. Save it, print it, or give it to whoever is compiling the bid. It stays saved under the AI tab.
AI generated from the tender documents. It is a working aid, so check it against the official documents before you bid.

“We won our first CIDB-graded roadworks subcontract off a TenderFinder alert. The closing-date reminders alone are worth the R79. Nothing slips past us anymore.”
