Typical uses

• Bid teams and suppliers: every open tender in your CPV codes, above a minimum value, with the deadline and the documents link.
• Consultants and market research: who is buying what, at what base price, with which procedure.
• Alerts: schedule the Actor daily and keep only the new notices in your own workflow.

Input

All filters are optional and combined with AND; several values inside one filter are OR.

• openOnly (default true): only notices whose bid deadline is today or later, Lisbon time.
• cpvCodes: prefix match (72 = IT services, 45 = construction, 33600000-6 = pharmaceuticals and sub-codes).
• keywords: searched in title, lots and buyer name; case and accents ignored.
• contractingAuthorities: 9-digit NIF (most reliable) or part of the name.
• minBasePrice, maxBasePrice (EUR): notices without a base price are excluded when set.
• procedureTypes, contractTypes: part of the Portuguese name is enough.

• includeAmendments (default true): include amendment and correction notices.
• maxResults (default 1,000).

Source, freshness and limits

• Source: IMPIC – Portal BASE, dataset «Contratos Públicos - Portal Base - IMPIC - Anúncios de 2012 a 2026» on dados.gov.pt, licence declared as public domain. The Actor reads the file list from the dados.gov.pt API on every run, so it always uses the latest weekly file.
• Freshness: IMPIC updates the file weekly; a notice published a few days ago may not be in it yet. For same-day alerts, check the official platforms too.
• Years: IMPIC publishes the current year as JSON; earlier years are only in XLSX and are not read in this version.
• No personal data: every notice is published by a public body.
• Not affiliated with or endorsed by IMPIC or the Portuguese State.

Pricing

Pay per result: you pay for each tender notice saved to the dataset. Set a maximum cost per run in the run options if you want a hard limit.
