Contracts Finder remains the statutory source, but it was never designed for high-volume SME bid teams. It lacks saved searches, multi-user workspaces, AI scoring, and template automation. TenderIQ synchronizes Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, and regional feeds every three hours, cleans corrupted CPV tags, and enriches notices with buyer history and estimated value bands.
Use Contracts Finder when you need legal provenance. Use TenderIQ when you need speed, collaboration, and actionable intelligence. The most effective teams keep both tabs open: verify details on Contracts Finder, then manage the entire pursuit lifecycle inside TenderIQ—alerts, bid/no-bid decisions, template bundles, and outcome tracking.
