EU Procurement Award Radar — Who Won Which Tender

Most procurement scrapers show you open calls — tenders you could still bid on. This one shows you the opposite: who already won. Give it a country, a sector (CPV code or keyword), and a lookback window, and it returns real AWARD notices from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) — buyer, winner, award value, currency, CPV code — and, where the winner's country has a matching registry in our fleet, its official registration number and status.

This is a lead-generation feed, not a bidding tool. If you sell to companies that just won public contracts (subcontractors, insurers, financiers, competitors doing market intelligence), this is the list of who just got the money.

What it does

• Only award notices, never open calls. The actor queries TED for eForms notice types can-standard and can-social — genuine "Contract Award Notice" documents — not cn-standard (open call for tenders) or pin-standard (prior information). A tender that's still open never shows up here.
• Real winner identity, not a buyer-only feed. TED's search API exposes winner-name, winner-country, winner-city, and winner-decision-date fields for award notices, but none of our five existing procurement scraper actors (TED, Belgian, Dutch, Norwegian, EU Funding & Tenders) request or output them — verified by reading their source before building this. This actor queries TED directly for the fields that actually carry the winner's name.
• Registry-enriched where cheap. For each award lead, the actor optionally calls our own eu-dealer-counterparty-check meta-actor with the winner's name and country, and attaches the winner's official registration number, registry status (active/dissolved/insolvent/unknown), and match confidence. Covers winners in DE, FR, GB, PL, IT, ES, CH, NO, SE, CZ, NL — the countries our registry fleet supports.
• Pan-EU/EEA coverage from one source. TED covers every EU/EEA member state plus the UK for above-threshold public contracts, so this actor doesn't need a separate scraper per country.
• Multi-lot notices handled honestly. When a notice has more than one winner (common for framework agreements split into lots), the first winner becomes winner and the rest land in additionalWinners — nothing is silently dropped, nothing is faked into a false 1:1 alignment TED's own flat API doesn't actually guarantee.

How to scrape EU procurement award data

1. Leave every filter empty to get the broadest feed: all EU/EEA + UK award notices published in the last 21 days, most recent first.
2. Narrow by countries (buyer's country — the contracting authority, not the winner) to focus on one or a few markets.
3. Narrow by CPV code (e.g. 72000000 for IT services, 45000000 for construction) to focus on a sector, or by searchQuery for a free-text keyword match on the notice title/description.
4. Set daysBack — TED publishes thousands of award notices a week across the EU, so 14–21 days is usually plenty of volume even for a narrow filter.
5. Leave enrichWinners on (default) to get the winner's registration number and status where available. Turn it off for a faster, cheaper run if you only need the raw TED data.
6. Run it. Each row is one award lead: who won, from whom, for how much, and (where enriched) their registry status.

Input options

Field	Type	Description
searchQuery	string	Free-text filter on notice title/description. Empty = all sectors.
countries	array	Buyer (contracting authority) country filter, ISO2 codes. Empty = all EU/EEA + UK.
cpvCode	string	CPV sector code filter, e.g. 72000000. Empty = all sectors.
daysBack	integer	Award-notice publication lookback window. Default 21.
maxResults	integer	Max award leads to return. Default 20.
enrichWinners	boolean	Registry-enrich each winner via eu-dealer-counterparty-check. Default true.
maxEnrichments	integer	Cap on how many winners get enriched per run (bounds cost/runtime). Default 3.
timeoutPerEnrichmentSecs	integer	Timeout per registry-enrichment call. Default 60.
proxyConfiguration	proxy	Only needed as a fallback — TED's v3 API is a public, open endpoint queried directly by default.

Cost estimate

Priced at $0.02 per award lead (pay-per-event, plus a small actor-start fee). Registry enrichment is included in that price where it succeeds — there is no separate enrichment charge.

Zero results is sometimes correct

If your filter (a rare country + narrow CPV + a keyword) genuinely matches zero award notices in the lookback window, the actor does not fail. It pushes a single run_status row documenting the filter and the fact that TED was reachable and scanned successfully. A run only fails when TED itself couldn't be reached — that's the real "something is broken" signal, not a narrow query returning nothing.

Limitations

• Winner identity depends on what TED itself received from the buyer. A small share of award notices are published without a machine-readable winner name (direct-award justifications, redacted notices) — those are skipped, they never appear as a lead. Roughly a handful in every hundred scanned, based on live testing.
• Registry enrichment only covers 11 countries (DE, FR, GB, PL, IT, ES, CH, NO, SE, CZ, NL) — the same set eu-dealer-counterparty-check supports. Winners elsewhere (e.g. Croatia, Poland's neighbors outside that list) come back with winnerRegId: null.
• Multi-lot notices are not perfectly lot-aligned. TED's search API returns winner-name/winner-country/winner-city as flat arrays per notice, not grouped per lot — when a notice has multiple winners, only the first is guaranteed correctly paired with its country/city; the rest are listed in additionalWinners by name only. Getting exact lot-level pairing would require parsing each notice's full XML, out of scope for this feed.
• Award value can be missing for notices where TED's result-value-notice field wasn't published (falls back to total-value, the pre-award estimate, when available — otherwise null).
• This actor calls a child actor (eu-dealer-counterparty-check) for enrichment — a Store account restriction on that actor would degrade enrichment coverage but never breaks the core award feed, which is 100% TED-direct.
