Global Government Contracts & Tenders Scraper

Scrape official public procurement notices from government sources and export normalized contract opportunity data for B2B research, tender monitoring, procurement analytics, and vendor sales workflows.

This Actor currently supports:

• UK Contracts Finder via the official OCDS API
• EU TED via the official TED Search API
• SAM.gov via the official Get Opportunities Public API when you provide your own SAM.gov API key

It saves clean records to the Apify Dataset and charges only after a valid contract/tender record is saved.
