EU + UK Public Procurement Notices

One feed for public tenders across Europe: TED (Tenders Electronic Daily, every EU/EEA country), UK Contracts Finder and UK Find a Tender, normalized into the same columns. Filter by publication date, keywords, CPV codes, buyer country and stage (tender, award, planning) and get title, buyer, deadline, estimated value, procedure, CPV codes and a link to the notice.

All three sources are official government APIs. No browser, no proxies, no account.

Pricing

Pay per event: $0.003 per notice saved ($3 per 1,000), plus Apify's standard Actor start fee. Filters are applied before saving, so you pay only for notices that match. TED alone publishes roughly 2,000–3,000 notices per working day; a CPV- or keyword-filtered daily run is usually 20–200 notices, i.e. a few cents to under a dollar.

Use cases

• Bid monitoring: daily schedule + keywords/CPV → Slack, email or Google Sheets via Apify integrations.
• Sales intelligence: which public buyers are procuring your category, and when awards are announced (stages: ["award"]).
• Market research: contract values and procedure types by country and CPV.
• AI agents: array inputs, flat output, PPE pricing; call it through the Apify MCP server.

How it works

• TED: POST https://api.ted.europa.eu/v3/notices/search with an expert query built from your filters (publication-date, notice-type, buyer-country, classification-cpv, FT~ full text), iterated with TED's pagination token.
• UK: the OCDS release endpoints of Contracts Finder (/Published/Notices/OCDS/Search) and Find a Tender (/api/1.0/ocdsReleasePackages), paged with their next cursor links. Keyword and CPV filters are applied to each release.

Requests are rate-limited and retried with back-off. Only organisation-level data (buyers, notices) is returned; contact persons are not extracted.

FAQ

Why do TED titles come in English even for a German notice? TED publishes machine-translated titles in all EU languages; the Actor prefers English, then falls back to the original.

Deadline missing? Award and planning notices have none; some tender notices only publish it inside the documents.
