What They Buy open tender finder

What do you make?(00000000)

Governments buy almost everything, and they publish what they want to buy, but they file it under number codes. Tell us what you supply in your own words and we'll find the codes and search the official portals for you. Then follow your search by RSS, and new tenders come to you for free, with no account, no need for you to provide your email address, and no questions asked.

Why these results

    Where we look

    Every search shows which portals answered. If one is down, we say so, and data more than two days old is marked as stale. Live sources are searched the moment you ask. The others are copied once a day, and the last column shows how many open notices each copy holds. Countries not listed here are covered only by TED, the EU's official journal, which carries contracts above the EU threshold.

    Why this exists

    Public contracts are open to anyone, but most small suppliers never see them because the notices are filed under codes they don't know. This is a free translation layer. No account, no cookies, no ads.

    What we keep

    We count searches. When a search matches nothing in our dictionary, or finds no open tenders, we keep the words typed (cut to 60 characters, and dropped if they look like an email address or a long number) so we can add the missing trade. We keep nothing that identifies you: no IP address, no cookies, no browser details. The one exception is the suggestion form below: our host records the sender's IP address and browser details with each message. Fonts are served from this site, and tender links take you straight to the official portal.

    Read before you bid

    Closed notices are removed and each result links to its official notice. Australian notices have no deadline in the source feed, so we show them as undated rather than guess. Brazilian tenders usually ask foreign bidders to register locally (SICAF) or appoint a representative. Always confirm details on the official notice.

    Improve it

    The word-to-code dictionary is one plain JSON file that we edit by hand. If your trade is missing, suggest it below or email us. The code is MIT-licensed; each notice belongs to the portal that published it and is shown under that portal's terms (sources).

    Missing your trade?

    Tell us what you make or do in your own words. We read every suggestion and add the trade to the dictionary by hand.

    No name or email needed. The form is handled by our host, Netlify, which also records the sender's IP address and browser details with each message; we delete suggestions once we have dealt with them.
