EU Tenders Scraper (TED) & Tender Monitor

What does EU Tenders Scraper (TED) do?

This actor collects EU public procurement notices from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the EU's official tender journal, through the official TED Search API (api.ted.europa.eu/v3). It returns one flat row per notice: contract notices (open tenders) and contract award notices (who won, for how much).

You can filter by buyer country, CPV code, keywords, notice type, publication date, estimated value and deadline. Turn on monitor mode and schedule the actor daily to get only notices you have not seen before.

Data can be exported from Apify as JSON, CSV, Excel or via the API, and runs can be scheduled or connected to integrations.

How to use it

1. Enter one or more buyer countries as ISO-3 codes (for example NLD, BEL, DEU). Leave empty for all countries.
2. Optionally add CPV code prefixes (for example 72 for IT services) and keywords.
3. Pick notice types: cn-standard for open tenders, can-standard for contract awards.
4. Set Published in the last N days.
5. Run it. For alerts, turn on monitor mode and add a daily schedule.

How much does it cost to scrape TED tenders?

You pay per notice delivered: $3.00 per 1,000 notices, with no start fee. With monitor mode on, notices from earlier runs are skipped, so you are not charged for them again. You can set a maximum cost per run in Apify; the actor stops when it is reached. The $5 monthly credit on the Apify free plan covers about 1,650 notices.

In monitor mode, the first run (empty memory) is a free baseline: it stores the notices that exist today and returns nothing, so it costs nothing. Later runs return and charge only new notices. Turn off "Monitor: first run is a free baseline" if you also want the existing notices.

Limits

• Data is what buyers publish on TED. Estimated value, deadline and award value are often missing (null).
• estimatedValue is the sum of the lot values; deadline is the earliest lot deadline.
• title and buyerName are in English only when TED provides an English version; otherwise another language is used. description is often in the original language.
• The value filter does not convert currencies.
• Monitor mode remembers up to the last 100,000 publication numbers per memory name.
• Maximum 50,000 notices per run.

Legal and terms

The actor uses the public, official TED Search API, not HTML scraping. TED notices are published by the EU Publications Office. Notices may be reused freely, including commercially, under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU: see the TED legal notice and Decision 2011/833/EU. You are responsible for how you use the data, including any personal data that may appear in notices (for example contact names).

FAQ

Is there an official TED API?

Yes. This actor uses the official TED Search API and turns the results into flat rows.

How do I get contract award notices and winners?

Set notice type to can-standard (or can-social, can-modif). The winners and awardedTotalValue fields are filled when the notice contains them.

How do I set up daily tender alerts?

Turn on monitor mode, keep the same monitor memory name, and schedule the actor daily in Apify. Each run returns only new notices.

Why are some values empty?

Buyers often do not publish an estimated value. Turn on "Require an estimated value" to keep only notices that have one.

Which countries are covered?

Any buyer country on TED. Filter with ISO-3 codes, or leave the field empty for all.

Can I use the data in Google Sheets, Slack or my CRM?

Yes, through Apify integrations, webhooks or the Apify API.
