How It Works

Find current opportunities, then research the market around them.

Approved live feeds update automatically: CanadaBuys federal notices are typically checked about every 2 hours, Toronto about every 4 hours, SEAO and Yukon about every 6 hours, and the local Nova Scotia TONS mailbox about every 15 minutes. Nova Scotia TONS timing depends on successful delivery of the official notification email and covers new notices received after enrollment rather than a historical backfill. A completed-month SEAO export is also used as a low-frequency reconciliation for longer-open Québec notices. Separate approved open-data feeds populate Contract Intelligence without mixing historical awards into open-tender matching.

1

Create & verify your account

Live records are available after email verification. A Free account requires no credit card and includes introductory tender-search access before you decide whether to subscribe.

2

Research the market

Use upcoming-project pipelines, award notices and contract history to see future demand, buyers, incumbents and contract values.

3

Prioritize & verify

Use match reasons, Bid Fit Assessment, alerts and saved-tender monitoring to prioritize. Always verify requirements and deadlines with the official issuing source.

Coverage is not sold province-by-province. Each paid product includes the sources currently approved and integrated for that product; coverage depth varies by jurisdiction.

Bid workflow

Turn a tender document into an action plan

Solo, Pro and Complete include a private RFP Document Analyzer. Upload a text-searchable RFP or paste its text to surface likely mandatory requirements, insurance and bonding clauses, certifications, site visits, question and submission deadlines, evaluation criteria, required forms and submission instructions. Add an addendum to compare changes, then send detected requirements into an existing Compliance Checklist.

Context Match

Matching now compares your business description, keywords and certifications with tender wording in addition to exact and related procurement terms. The score remains explainable and does not send your profile to an external AI service.

Private calendar feed

Subscribe from Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar to keep saved-tender closings, pursuit deadlines, tasks, external-opportunity dates and compliance due dates together.

Source freshness

The public Source Status page shows the health and most recent successful refresh of every approved automatic tender source currently active in CTM.

Two separate datasets

Live opportunities stay separate from intelligence

An awarded contract is useful research, but it is not an open bid.

Canada Tender Match stores open tender notices separately from upcoming projects and past awards/contracts. Only the live-tender database drives matching and tender alerts.

Current tender notices, closing dates, matching and alerts.

Contract Intelligence

Planning & competitor research

Upcoming pipelines, award notices, successful vendors and contract values from approved official open data. Any renewal date is clearly labelled as an estimate unless the source publishes it.
