Coverage

Palmar monitors 30+ verified-public tender portals across all six GCC markets — Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain. Only official, publicly-accessible sources; login-gated portals are excluded. Coverage refreshes every two hours, and a daily health check quietly retires any portal that breaks — so the feed stays honest without anyone lifting a finger.

Saudi Arabia in depth

Saudi Arabia is where Palmar's coverage runs deepest: 12 public sources connected today. Etimad's main tender grid, Forsah for RFQs between major buyers and SMEs, Furas for municipal and real-estate investment opportunities, NUPCO, Sharakat (SWPC), Saudi Post, Tanafos for the non-profit sector, Health Holding and NCNP — plus the Islamic Development Bank and the GCC Secretariat-General, both procuring from the Kingdom. Award history comes from Etimad's own open-data record, so you can see what was won before you bid.

Every source above is one Palmar actually crawls. Saudi portals that require a login or pre-registration are tracked in our source directory, not listed here as covered.

Transparent matching

Every saved search blends semantic understanding (Voyage embeddings) with sector, region, keyword and budget signals into a single 0–100 match score. Sparse profiles aren't penalized — the weights normalize — and nothing below 40 clutters your feed. Each result carries plain-language reason chips, so you see why it matched, not just that it did.

Bilingual EN / AR

Arabic portals publish in Arabic; Palmar translates each notice to English at ingest and stores both — title, buyer and description in each language. Read the feed in whichever you prefer: English bidders can compete for Arabic-only tenders, and Arabic teams get the entire product in Arabic, right-to-left, with numbers correctly isolated. The /ar experience is first-class, not an afterthought.

The control room

Semantic search across the full GCC feed with the filters that matter — country, sector, status, deadline window and budget. Every tender is deduplicated to a single row across portals. Save the promising ones; dismiss the rest with a reason, and Palmar learns — dismissed tenders never resurface. Power users triage entirely from the keyboard, and 'More like this' finds neighbours by the tender's own vector.

Deadlines & freshness

When a portal states a closing date, Palmar tones it by urgency — red inside three days, amber inside seven. When the deadline lives in the tender document, it says exactly that: 'On document.' No invented 'no deadline'. A 'Last updated' line shows how fresh each record is.

Discovery → response

Turn a discovered tender into a Palmar opportunity that carries its Discovery provenance — source portal, URL, country and sector — resolves the currency, and drops you straight into the AI Studio proposal editor with requirements and evidence ready. It uses the same monthly RFP quota as a bid you create by hand.
