Contract Finder Pro – Search UK public sector tenders

An overview of Contract Finder Pro

The Basics December 30, 2020

Our offer at CFP is relatively straightforward.  Our bespoke system hoovers up all the open tenders released by the UK government (about 120,000 in 2018) and presents them in a searchable format in one easy-to-access website. Our users set up searches for terms they are interested in – which could be both topics, ‘cyber’ or organisations, ‘DCO’ or ‘NCSC’. Every morning we send out an email to subscribers which includes information on all the new tenders meeting their criteria released in the past 24 hours.

We also have a sophistcated research function, enabling our users to research previous contract awards, identify buyer behaviour and work out who their competitors are.

The best way to test our service is to sign up for a free trial. We offer 14 days as that’s generally enough to try all the features and gauge the effectiveness of the results.

Finding opportunities is of course only the first (if most essential) step on the journey to winning business. Scroll down to find articles on how to use CFP, but also how to winning business once you’ve found those opportunities.

I hope you find this useful and would love to hear your feedback.
