3,253 open contractor bids and 8,726 open notices in all, across 54 states, DC and territories. Source: SAM.gov public Contract Opportunities data (file updated Sat, 31 Oct 2026 03:30:30 GMT), refreshed once a day. Trade matches are automatic and imperfect. Descriptions are shortened and leave out personal contact details; the official notice has everything. Cards labeled “Sponsored” are paid placements, not bids.
How it works

We read the public file
Once a day we read SAM.gov’s free public list of open federal contract opportunities. We don’t use paid or members-only sources.

You search and filter
Pick a trade, state, county, agency, set-aside or deadline window. Product and parts purchases are hidden by default, and you can turn them back on.

You verify and decide
Open the official notice on SAM.gov and confirm the details, deadline and requirements with the issuing agency before you bid.

FAQ
Is GovCrow really free?
Yes. There are no accounts and nothing to buy. The site is supported by clearly labeled sponsors.
Where do the bids come from?
From SAM.gov, the federal government’s free public bid listings, using its public daily data file. We don’t use paid or members-only bid databases.
Is GovCrow a government service?
No. GovCrow is a private website. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any government agency.
Can I rely on the information?
Treat it as a lead, not a source of record. It is for informational purposes only, may be incomplete or out of date, and should always be verified with the issuing agency on the official notice.
Does GovCrow submit bids for me?
No. GovCrow only helps you find notices. You are responsible for reading the official solicitation and for any bid you submit.
What are the “Sponsored” boxes?
They are paid placements from businesses that want to reach contractors. They are always labeled “Sponsored,” and a sponsor is never an endorsement by GovCrow or by any government. Learn about sponsoring.
What data do you collect about me?
None that we use or keep: no accounts, no sign-up forms, no analytics cookies and no ad trackers. Our web host keeps standard server logs. See the Privacy Policy.
Which areas are covered?
Federal bids from SAM.gov, in every US state, DC and the territories. Many federal notices don’t say where the work will be done, so we show the agency office location when that is all we have, and mark it on the card.
