# EU Tenders API — TED Procurement Deadlines (`ikoles/eu-ted-tender-deadline-radar`) Actor Search active EU public procurement notices from the official TED API. Filter tenders by keyword, buyer country, CPV code, publication date, submission deadline, and minimum value. Export clean JSON/CSV rows for bid pipelines, sales teams, alerts, dashboards, and AI agents. - **URL**: https://apify.com/ikoles/eu-ted-tender-deadline-radar.md - **Developed by:** [Ilya Kalesnichenka](https://apify.com/ikoles) (community) - **Categories:** Business, Lead generation - **Stats:** 2 total users, 0 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $4.00 / 1,000 tender results This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## EU Tender Shortlist — TED Opportunity Ranking Turn the official TED procurement feed into a ranked sales shortlist. Filter active European tenders by keyword, country, CPV code, publication date, minimum value, and submission deadline; every result receives an explainable `fitScore`, concrete `fitReasons`, and actionable `riskFlags` before export to JSON or CSV. ### Why use this Actor? - Returns only notices with a tender deadline in the future when the run starts. - Produces one normalized row per notice, using its nearest eligible tender deadline. - Ranks by best fit, nearest deadline, or highest published value. - Explains every score and flags short deadlines or missing estimated values. - Requires no API key, proxy, or browser. ### Quick start ```json { "keywords": ["software", "server"], "countries": ["DEU", "FRA"], "cpvCodes": ["72"], "minValue": 100000, "rankingMode": "bestFit", "maxResults": 100 } ```` ### Input All date defaults are calculated from the run start in UTC. Dynamic UTC dates are applied at runtime rather than stored in the input schema. | Field | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `keywords` | `string[]` | `[]` | Up to 10 terms. A notice can match any term through TED full-text search. | | `countries` | `string[]` | `[]` | Up to 30 unique ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 buyer country codes, such as `DEU`, `FRA`, or `POL`. | | `cpvCodes` | `string[]` | `[]` | Up to 20 unique CPV codes or prefixes, each containing 2–8 digits. | | `publishedAfter` | `string` | UTC date 30 days before run start | Inclusive earliest publication date in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. | | `publishedBefore` | `string` | Not set | Inclusive latest publication date in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. | | `deadlineAfter` | `string` | UTC date of run start | Inclusive earliest tender deadline date in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. | | `deadlineBefore` | `string` | Not set | Inclusive latest tender deadline date in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. | | `minValue` | `number` | Not set | Nonnegative minimum procedure-level estimated value in each notice's native/source currency, with no currency conversion. Cross-currency values are not economically normalized; combine this filter with a narrow country or use case, or inspect the output `currency`. Notices without a numeric value are excluded when this is greater than zero. | | `rankingMode` | `bestFit \| deadlineSoonest \| highestValue` | `bestFit` | Sort the shortlist by explainable fit, the nearest eligible deadline, or the highest published estimated value. Unknown values sort last in `highestValue` mode. | | `maxResults` | `integer` | `100` | Maximum number of eligible rows to collect, from 1 to 5,000. A run charge budget can reduce the number actually written. | ### Output Each default-dataset item follows the `TenderRow` contract. The values in this example are illustrative and do not identify a verified procurement notice: ```json { "noticeId": "412345-2026", "title": "Framework agreement for software development and support services", "buyerName": "Illustrative City Digital Services Agency", "buyerCountryCodes": ["DEU"], "cpvCodes": ["72000000", "72200000"], "estimatedValue": 2500000, "currency": "EUR", "publicationDate": "2026-07-10", "deadline": "2026-08-31T15:00:00.000Z", "daysToDeadline": 47, "fitScore": 100, "fitReasons": [ "Keyword match: software", "Buyer country match: DEU", "CPV match: 72", "Estimated value meets minimum: 2500000", "Deadline is active: 47 days remaining" ], "riskFlags": [], "sourceUrl": "https://ted.europa.eu/en/notice/412345-2026/html" } ``` ### Pricing $0.004 per item written to the default dataset. Empty results and notices filtered out before the final dataset write do not create dataset-item events. A run-level `maxTotalChargeUsd` can cap the rows written below `maxResults`. The final status reports the actual submitted count and, when budget-limited, the eligible count as well. ### Data source and limitations This Actor queries the official TED Search API. Procedure-level estimated value can be absent from a notice, so `estimatedValue` and `currency` can be `null`. The deterministic fit score uses the requested keyword, country, CPV, minimum-value, and deadline evidence; it is a prioritization aid, not an eligibility decision. Keyword matching uses TED full-text search and is not semantic matching. Verify the source notice for the complete procurement record and current requirements. ### Disclaimer This independent tool is not affiliated with or endorsed by the European Union or TED. Users are responsible for verifying procurement details on the linked official notice before acting. # Actor input Schema ## `keywords` (type: `array`): Find notices matching any of these terms through TED full-text search. ## `countries` (type: `array`): ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 buyer country codes, for example DEU, FRA, or POL. ## `cpvCodes` (type: `array`): Two- to eight-digit CPV codes or prefixes. ## `publishedAfter` (type: `string`): Earliest publication date, inclusive.
