CIDB e-Tender & N3C vs ePerolehan (Government eProcurement)

Two Malaysia lead generation options, compared side by side for Malaysia trades.

Which should you choose?

ePerolehan (Government eProcurement) edges ahead on our Malaysia tiering (Tier S vs A), but both are workable — the right pick depends on your trade, region, and the Malaysia-specific notes below.

CIDB e-Tender & N3C

Tier A · Workable

CIDB's national construction tender portal + cost-data centre

CIDB (the construction-industry regulator) runs a dedicated e-tender portal where major works tenders from bodies like JKR/PWD are advertised to CIDB-registered contractors, plus N3C (the National Construction Cost Centre) with a Tender Price Index.

Pros

+ Construction-only focus
+ Aligned to CIDB G1–G7 grades
+ Authoritative cost-index data (N3C)
+ National coverage of works tenders

Cons

− Government portal UX
− Overlaps with ePerolehan
− Primarily public/major works
− Not a polished SaaS alert product

Malaysia note

A construction-specific lead source aligned to CIDB grading — it complements ePerolehan for works tenders, and the N3C provides Malaysian construction cost benchmarks (the Tender Price Index) useful for bidding.

Typical Malaysia pricing: Free (government portal); N3C data products vary.

ePerolehan (Government eProcurement)

Tier S · Recommended

Malaysia's official federal e-procurement portal for government tenders

The mandatory federal eProcurement system — all federal supply/service procurement runs through it, and ministries and agencies advertise tenders, quotations and contracts here. The single largest public source of government work for contractors.

Pros

+ Authoritative, mandatory source of federal contracts
+ Free entry tier
+ Transparent award trail
+ Huge volume

Cons

− Government UX / bureaucracy
− MOF Account + registration overhead
− Federal-only (state/private tenders elsewhere)
− Not a curated "alert" tool on its own

Malaysia note

Suppliers register by category (including Contractor), and CIDB-graded contractors bid on works here — though major construction-works tenders are also routed via CIDB's own e-tender portal.

Typical Malaysia pricing: Free Basic Account (transacts up to RM20,000); MOF Account RM450 / 3 years for more.
