Where the data comes from
BidSonar aggregates publicly available procurement and grant feeds. We do not buy private data, we do not scrape behind logins, and we credit every source under its own licence. Click through to the original record at any time — every opportunity page links back.
Contracts Finder
UK Cabinet Office — Contracts Finder
England, Wales, Scotland. Threshold > £12k.
Note — Northern Ireland not covered here — see Find a Tender below.
Find a Tender
UK Find a Tender Service
All UK including Northern Ireland (via NUTS UKN).
Note — Replaced the older NI eTenders feed in May 2026.
eTenders Ireland
eTenders — Republic of Ireland public procurement (below-threshold national notices)
Republic of Ireland — below-EU-threshold national notices (above-threshold Irish notices arrive via TED).
Note — Scoped to below-threshold notices only, the slice that never reaches TED — so nothing here double-lists against our TED feed.
TED
Tenders Electronic Daily — EU procurement journal
EU member states plus UK pre-Brexit notices. Above-threshold OJEU procurement.
Innovate UK
Innovate UK — Apply for Innovation Funding
Open Innovate UK competitions on the apply-for portal.
Note — Calls only — winners are not yet ingested. We pull historical and live awards via Gateway to Research separately (planned).
What BidSonar adds on top
- Cross-source normalisation — country codes, sector classification, deduplicated organisations, consistent value formatting.
- AI matching — vector embeddings of opportunity descriptions, scored against your business profile.
- Buyer and sector aggregates — denormalised counters refreshed on every ingest.
BidSonar's derivative content (matches, summaries, aggregates) is provided alongside the upstream data, which remains under its original licence. The original record is always one click away.
