FPDS Contract Awards Scraper

What does FPDS Contract Awards Scraper do?

FPDS Contract Awards Scraper pulls federal contract award and modification records straight from the Federal Procurement Data System, the US government's system of record for federal contracting. Each result includes the vendor, the awarding agency, the dollar amount, the NAICS industry code, the place of performance, and the contract number. Filter by signed date, NAICS code, or vendor name to keep runs small. You pay only for the results you get.

Data source

Reads the public FPDS-NG ATOM feed at fpds.gov, the same feed the government publishes for anyone to query without a login, and reflects contract actions as soon as the contracting officer signs off, typically same day to a few days.

Why use it?

• Sales and business development: find recently awarded contracts in your NAICS code to identify buyers, teaming partners, and incumbents.
• Market research: track spending by agency, vendor, or industry over time without building an FPDS query by hand.
• Competitive intelligence: watch a specific vendor's or agency's contract activity.
• Replaces manually paging through fpds.gov search results or paying for a subscription analytics tool just to get raw award data.

How to use it

1. Open the Actor and set a date range, NAICS code, or vendor name, or leave the filters blank for the last 7 days across all agencies.
2. Click Start. Download results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read them through the API.
3. Add a Schedule and an Integration (Slack, Google Sheets, webhook) to get new awards automatically.

Pricing

Pay per event: a small fee when a run starts, then a fixed price per result returned. You only pay for records that pass your filters. Set maxResults to cap any run.

Limitations

• Covers only what FPDS itself reports; contracting offices sometimes report awards a few days after signing.
• Individual transaction records only (awards and modifications). IDV and BPA master agreements are not included since they do not carry a single NAICS code or dollar amount.
• No coverage of grants, loans, or other non contract federal spending.

FAQ

Is this legal? The Actor reads the public FPDS-NG feed the government publishes for anyone to query without a login, and stores only contract data the government already publishes. You are responsible for how you use the data.
