Public Tenders & Contract Awards Feed - EU, UK, NL

Public Tenders & Contract Awards Feed — EU, UK, NL

Get public procurement tenders and contract awards from official government sources in one clean, consistent format: TED (EU-wide), UK Find a Tender, UK Contracts Finder and TenderNed (Netherlands). Filter by CPV code, country, value, keywords and deadline. Schedule it and receive only what is new or changed since the last run.

Built for people who want to build their own tender alerts: bid managers, consultancies, suppliers to the public sector, market researchers, and n8n / Make / Zapier / AI-agent workflows. Uses official open data APIs only — no website scraping, no proxies, no login.

What you get

• One schema for four sources. Every record has the same fields, whatever the source: title, buyer, country, CPV codes, contract type, procedure, value, publication date, deadline, link, and more.
• Tenders and awards. Planning notices, open tenders, contract awards (with winners and awarded value where the source publishes them), amendments, cancellations.
• Alerts without extra tooling. Incremental mode remembers what it already delivered: schedule the Actor (hourly, daily) and each run returns only new or updated notices, each marked changeType: "new" or "updated".
• Precise filters. CPV prefix (for example 72 for IT services), buyer country, value range with currency, keywords, exclude keywords, deadline within N days.
• English titles for EU notices. TED notices include an English title next to the original.
• Predictable cost. You pay per delivered notice and you stay in control with a hard item limit and your own maximum charge per run.

Sources

Pricing

Pay per delivered notice (see the Pricing tab for the current prices):

• Tender notice: every delivered notice except awards.
• Award notice: every delivered contract award notice.

You are only charged for notices that are actually delivered to your dataset: filtered, unchanged and failed notices are free. The run stops cleanly when your maximum charge per run is reached, and the next run continues with the rest.

Using the data

• Schedule the Actor and connect a webhook, an n8n / Make / Zapier integration or the Apify API to be notified of new notices.
• Use it as a tool in an AI agent through Apify's MCP server.
• Call the API directly: POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/<your-username>~tenders-awards-feed/runs with the input as JSON body.

Good to know

• Sources publish at different times; weekends are quiet.
• Values are exactly as published. Some notices have no value; filters on value drop those notices.
• Joint procurements can have buyers in several countries; a country filter matches if any buyer matches.
• procedureType uses the EU vocabulary (open, restricted, …) for TED and TenderNed, and the OCDS vocabulary (open, selective, limited, direct) for the UK.
• Keyword filters are applied after fetching: combine them with country or CPV filters on large result sets.
• Incremental state is kept for 14 days per monitor (same State key and same filters) in a key-value store in your account. Changing a filter starts a fresh monitor.
• To check that all sources are reachable, run the Actor with Run health check enabled. It delivers no notices and costs nothing.
