How to get government tenders & procurement data (EU TED, World Bank, IDB)
Public bodies and development banks publish billions in tenders every week. Here's how to pull RFPs, expressions of interest and awards — with buyers, values and deadlines — as clean JSON for B2G lead generation and tender alerts.
Where does tender data come from?
The reliable open sources are official: EU TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) covers public procurement across EU member states; the World Bank publishes global development procurement; and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) covers Latin America & the Caribbean. All are free public data — the value is in normalising them into one feed.
What data can you get?
- Notice — title, description, type (tender / expression of interest / award).
- Buyer — contracting authority, country and sector / CPV code.
- Value & dates — contract value, publication date and submission deadline.
- Documents & contacts — bid-document links and, on some sources, contact emails.
The easy way (keyless, scheduled feeds)
Instead of monitoring three portals by hand, run the foXLabs tender scrapers and filter by your country, sector or keywords — exportable to JSON / CSV / Excel and schedulable for daily alerts:
EU TED Tenders — European public procurement. World Bank Tenders — global, 100+ countries, with contact emails. IDB Tenders — Latin America & Caribbean.
