## What's an Apify Actor?

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.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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.

# README

## Austria Tender Scraper — Austrian Public Procurement

Extract Austrian public **tenders and contract award notices** from the official **USP Ausschreibungssuche**. This Austria tender scraper is built for Austrian public procurement monitoring, CPV tender search, public-sector lead generation, and data pipelines.

### What you get

- Tender and award notice titles
- Public buyer / contracting authority
- Publication dates and tender deadlines
- Notice type: `tender` or `award`
- CPV codes and CPV descriptions
- Contract values and award dates where available
- Procedure type, contract type, offer counts
- Reference numbers, buyer register numbers
- Official USP detail URLs and source URLs

### Why use this Actor?

Austria's public procurement portal contains valuable B2B buying signals, but manual searching is slow. This Actor turns USP notices into clean structured data for spreadsheets, CRMs, BI tools, APIs, and AI agents.

### Example input

```json
{
  "query": "photovoltaik",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "includeDetails": true,
  "fromDate": "2026-01-01",
  "noticeKinds": ["tender", "award"]
}
````

### Useful searches

```json
{ "query": "software" }
{ "query": "photovoltaik" }
{ "query": "sanierung" }
{ "query": "cybersecurity" }
{ "query": "wärmepumpe" }
{ "query": "elektroarbeiten" }
```

### Output example

```json
{
  "title": "Abruf aus Rahmenvereinbarung",
  "buyer": "ÖBB Business Competence Center GmbH",
  "publishedDate": "2026-07-03",
  "noticeKind": "award",
  "cpvCode": "72000000",
  "contractValue": "69.360,00 €",
  "procedureType": "Verhandlungsverfahren mit vorheriger Bekanntmachung",
  "detailUrl": "https://ausschreibungen.usp.gv.at/..."
}
```

### Source

- Use small `maxItems` values for testing and larger runs for monitoring.
- Data availability depends on the official USP public portal.
