## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### 🚀 TED EU Tenders Scraper — Notices, Lots & Awards

Export EU public procurement notices from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) as clean, structured records. The **TED EU Tenders Scraper** gives you each notice together with its **lots**, **submission deadlines**, **estimated values**, **award results with winning companies and prices**, **no-award outcomes** and **change references**, so you can find tenders to bid on, monitor competitors' wins and analyse public spending.

### ✨ Features

- 🏛️ **Notice data**: title in English and the original language, description, notice type, procedure type, contract nature, publication and dispatch dates, buyer names, countries and cities, CPV codes, place of performance (NUTS), estimated and total awarded values.
- 📦 **Lot-by-lot breakdown**: lot title and description, main and additional CPV codes, estimated value, tender deadline, participation-request deadline, submission and procurement-document links, contract start/end or duration, EU funding and SME suitability.
- 🏆 **Award results**: for every lot, the outcome (winner selected, no winner, not yet decided), the reason when nothing was awarded, number of tenders received, and each winning tender with its price, rank, contract ID, conclusion date and winning companies (name, national registration ID, country, city, company size). Consortium winners are all listed.
- 🔁 **Changes and corrections**: which earlier notice a correction or modification refers to, with the justification and description of the change.
- 🔍 **Flexible search**: filter by keywords, buyer country, CPV codes (a code includes everything under it), notice kind and publication date range — or fetch exact notices by number or URL.
- ✅ **Honest completeness**: every record carries a `detailsStatus` field and each run writes a summary, so you always know which notices include the full lot and award breakdown.

### 🛠️ How It Works

1. **Set your filters** – e.g. buyer country `DE` and CPV `72000000` (IT services), optionally keywords, notice kind and a date range. Or paste specific notice numbers such as `599749-2026`.
2. **Choose how many notices** – `Max notices` limits the run (default 50). The newest notices are saved first.
3. **Run the scraper** – each notice is saved as one record with its lots and awards nested inside. Download it as JSON, CSV, Excel or connect it to your tools via the API.

#### Useful inputs

| Goal                                                  | Input                                                                                      |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Open IT tenders in Germany and Austria                | `countries: ["DE", "AT"]`, `cpvCodes: ["72000000"]`, `noticeKind: "competition"`           |
| Who won medical supply contracts in Poland last month | `countries: ["PL"]`, `cpvCodes: ["33100000"]`, `noticeKind: "result"`, `dateFrom`/`dateTo` |
| Everything mentioning a technology                    | `keywords: "SAP S/4HANA"`                                                                  |
| Refresh specific notices                              | `publicationNumbers: ["599749-2026", "648801-2026"]`                                       |

**Good to know:** the full lot and award breakdown of a notice usually becomes available a few days after publication. Notices from the last few days are still saved with all notice-level fields (title, buyer, CPV, deadlines, values, winner names) and marked `detailsStatus: "pending"`; run them again later by notice number to get the breakdown.

### 💰 Pricing

Pay only for the notices you get:

| Event                                                                                         | Price   |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| Notice with lots and awards (`detailsStatus: "complete"`)                                     | $0.003  |
| Notice without the lot breakdown (`detailsStatus: "pending"`, published in the last few days) | $0.0015 |

1,000 fully detailed notices cost $3.

Values are reported exactly as the buyer published them, with their currency: an empty value is `null`, never `0`, and the lot-level award prices can differ from the notice total. A run summary (`RUN_SUMMARY`) lists how many notices matched, how many were saved with and without the lot breakdown, and why the run stopped.

### ⚖️ Source and attribution

Data comes from TED, the official journal of EU public procurement, which allows reuse of procurement notices. This scraper restructures that data into lots and awards; it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the European Union or the Publications Office. Personal contact details (e-mails, phone numbers, contact names) are not collected.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
