UK Tenders Scraper - Find a Tender + Contracts Finder
Pricing
from $3.50 / 1,000 tender notices
UK government tenders, contract awards and pipeline notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder via the official OCDS APIs. Filter by keyword, CPV, region, buyer, deadline, value and SME flag; monitor daily. Clean JSON with buyer contacts, values, deadlines and winning suppliers.
Find a Tender = above-threshold notices (Procurement Act 2023 and legacy regimes), all four UK nations. Contracts Finder = lower-value English public sector opportunities and awards. Default: both.
tender = opportunities (calls for tender, including updates/amendments); award = contract awards and contract notices (who won, for how much); planning = pipeline, planned procurement and early engagement notices. Empty = all.
Words or phrases matched (case-insensitive) against the notice title and description, e.g. "software", "cloud", "road maintenance", "catering". Narrow keywords over many days mean more pages to read (Find a Tender allows about one request per 10 s), so combine them with a short date window or a monitor name.
Match notices containing ANY of the keywords, or ALL of them.
Common Procurement Vocabulary codes. Full 8-digit codes match exactly; shorter prefixes match the whole group, e.g. 72 = IT services, 45 = construction, 33 = medical, 79 = business services, 90 = environmental.
Delivery region: a NUTS/ITL code prefix (UKI = London, UKE = Yorkshire, UKM = Scotland, UKL = Wales, UKN = Northern Ireland) or part of a region name used by Contracts Finder ("London", "North West", "South East", "Yorkshire"). Matched against delivery regions and the buyer's region.
Only notices whose contracting authority name contains one of these texts, e.g. "NHS", "Council", "Ministry of Defence", "University".
Earliest publication date, YYYY-MM-DD. Default: 7 days ago. Up to 400 days per run.
Latest publication date, YYYY-MM-DD. Default: today.
How many days (ending at 'Published before') to scan when 'Published after' is empty. Default 7. Use 1-2 with Find a Tender and narrow filters: that API allows about 12 requests per 2 minutes, so each day of Find a Tender costs about a minute.
Only tender notices whose submission deadline has not passed yet.
Only notices with a tender deadline on or after this date, YYYY-MM-DD.
Only notices with a tender deadline on or before this date, YYYY-MM-DD.
Only notices with an estimated (or, for awards, awarded) value at or above this amount. Notices without any value are dropped when a value filter is set.
Only notices with an estimated (or awarded) value at or below this amount.
Only notices the buyer flagged as suitable for small and medium enterprises.
Drop releases that only change, amend or cancel an earlier notice, so you get each opportunity or award once. Keep them when monitoring deadlines and cancellations.
OCDS procurement method: open, selective, limited, direct.
Maximum number of notices to return (newest first).
Set any name, e.g. 'it-tenders-london', and schedule the task: each run then returns only notices not delivered under this key before. Leave empty to disable.
