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/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Procurement Award Winner Tracker Track public procurement award notices with buyer, winning vendor, contract title, value, date, duration, category, and sales intelligence. Procurement Award Winner Tracker is built for one focused job: turning public source pages or pasted research snippets into usable award result records. It does not try to be a generic webpage scraper. The parser, fields, examples, and dataset schema are shaped around this actor's specific business question. Use it when you already have public pages, listings, announcements, reviews, directories, or copied snippets and want a repeatable way to extract the information that matters without manually filling a spreadsheet. ### Who Uses It GovTech sellers, public-sector sales teams, procurement analysts, competitive intelligence teams, and bid-monitoring agencies. ### What It Finds The actor looks for signals connected to track public procurement award notices with buyer, winning vendor, contract title, value, date, duration, category, and sales intelligence. It keeps the output focused on fields a buyer can review, filter, enrich, or send into a CRM, spreadsheet, product backlog, procurement workflow, or research database. The extraction method is specific to this actor: Award-notice extraction with buyer/vendor split, value/date capture, duration parsing, service categorization, and incumbent-market signal. ### How It Works 1. The actor accepts public URLs or pasted snippets in `awardSources`. 2. Public URLs are fetched when possible and converted into visible text. 3. Pasted snippets are processed directly, which is useful for pages that block automated fetching or require manual browsing. 4. Actor-specific parsing logic extracts only the fields listed below. 5. Empty or low-information inputs are skipped safely, with clean logs instead of noisy failed rows. ### Input Use `awardSources` for the sources you want to process. Each item can be a public URL or a focused text snippet. ```json { "awardSources": [ "City of Austin awarded BrightData Systems a $1.2M contract for cloud migration services on July 8, 2026. Duration 24 months.", "NHS Trust procurement result: SecureLayer wins cyber risk assessment framework worth £450,000, awarded 2026-06-30.", "State Education Office award notice selects LearnGrid for digital curriculum platform implementation valued at $875,000." ], "maxResults": 3 } ```` ### Output Fields - `buyerOrganization` - Public buyer or organization awarding the contract. - `winningVendor` - Vendor selected in the award notice. - `contractTitle` - Contract, project, or service title. - `awardValue` - Disclosed award value. - `awardDate` - Award date. - `contractDuration` - Contract term or duration. - `serviceCategory` - Procurement service category. - `incumbentSignal` - Why the winner matters for market tracking. - `salesIntelligence` - How sales or competitor teams can use the award signal. - `awardUrl` - Award notice URL. ### Example Output ```json { "buyerOrganization": "City of Austin", "winningVendor": "BrightData Systems", "contractTitle": "cloud migration services", "awardValue": "$1.2M", "awardDate": "July 8, 2026", "contractDuration": "24 months", "serviceCategory": "cloud services", "incumbentSignal": "winner identified from public award notice", "salesIntelligence": "Track vendor activity, renewal windows, and competitor wins", "awardUrl": "https://example.com/award" } ``` ### Best Use Cases - Build a focused spreadsheet from repeated source pages. - Review public signals before sales, partnership, product, procurement, or market research work. - Monitor a category over time using the same output fields. - Turn copied notes from newsletters, communities, directories, review pages, or search results into a structured dataset. ### Tips For Better Results - Use source pages that visibly contain the signal you want this actor to extract. - For hard-to-fetch sites, paste the relevant public text snippet directly into the input. - Keep each input item focused on one page, listing, announcement, review, or profile. - Review extracted rows before making high-stakes business, legal, procurement, or security decisions. ### Limitations - The actor does not bypass logins, paywalls, private systems, CAPTCHA, or anti-bot walls. - The actor extracts from visible text and may miss information hidden behind scripts or user interactions. - Some fields may be empty when the source does not contain that information. - Output quality depends on source quality, so focused source text produces the strongest rows. # Actor input Schema ## `awardSources` (type: `array`): Add public URLs or paste focused text snippets. Use one source per row. The actor extracts only signals that match its specific purpose. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of useful dataset rows to save. ## Actor input object example ```json { "awardSources": [ "City of Austin awarded BrightData Systems a $1.2M contract for cloud migration services on July 8, 2026.
