Scrape UK public procurement notices from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender in one Actor. Filter by CPV code, region and contract value. Run once for a bulk extract, or use monitor mode to alert on new notices since the last run. Optionally pull award and incumbent data and flag contracts nearing expiry for recompete planning.
No contact names or emails are collected. Buyer organisation details and notice metadata are returned; personal contact fields on notices are omitted by design.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
What it does
- Combines Contracts Finder (OCDS API and daily CSV feeds) and Find a Tender (OCDS API) into a single dataset.
- Searches and filters public notices by keywords, CPV codes, region/location, notice type, and value band.
- Date filters differ by source: Contracts Finder uses published date; Find a Tender uses last-updated date (not published date).
- Find a Tender regions are UK NUTS/ITL codes (e.g.
UKF22), not region names. - Every result includes the official notice ID from the source portal.
- Monitor / alerts mode: keep only notices that are new since the previous run (ideal for scheduled Apify runs + webhooks or email integrations).
- Optional award and incumbent enrichment where the source publishes it.
- Optional recompete signals: surface contracts approaching end date so bid teams can plan ahead.
- Structured JSON/CSV output ready for CRM, BI, or bid-management tools.
- Uses official public OCDS endpoints — no proxy required for normal API reads.
Who it's for
Built for UK bid teams and bid consultants.
- UK bid teams inside SMEs and mid-market suppliers chasing public contracts
- Bid consultants (and bid-writing agencies) monitoring multiple buyers or sectors — primary audiences with UK bid teams
- B2B sales teams selling into UK central government, local authorities, NHS, and other public bodies
- Procurement-intelligence and market-research workflows that need clean, repeatable UK tender data

Date filters: Contracts Finder filters by published date (
publishedAfter/publishedBefore). Find a Tender filters by last-updated date (updatedAfter/updatedBefore), not published date.Regions: For Find a Tender, pass UK NUTS/ITL codes such as
UKF22— region names are not accepted by that source.Privacy: The Actor does not collect or store buyer contact names or emails, even when those fields exist on the source notice. Do not request them via input — they are not available as output.
