National feeds + TED
Public tenders in Germany
Tanax Edge tracks public tenders in Germany from oeffentlichevergabe.de, the federal publication service that exposes procurement notices as open OCDS and eForms data, plus TED above-threshold notices. Together these cover federal contract notices and award releases. Germany's fragmented below-threshold layer, the Laender-level and commercial platform portals, is not included.

tender notices tracked in Germany. Live aggregate from our database, refreshed hourly; not a count of open deadlines.
Which sources does Tanax Edge track in Germany?
- oeffentlichevergabe.de (Datenservice Öffentlicher Einkauf)National portal
Federal publication service for procurement notices. Ingested daily via its open-data OCDS and eForms API (CC0 licensed). Carries both contract notices and award releases.
- TED (Tenders Electronic Daily)TED (EU above-threshold)
German above-threshold notices from the EU-wide TED layer, including award notices.
What is covered and what is not
Covered
- Federal procurement notices from oeffentlichevergabe.de via its open OCDS and eForms data API, pulled daily
- German above-threshold notices published on TED
- Contract award releases from both the federal feed and TED
- Buyer region (Bundesland) extracted deterministically from notice data where the release carries it
Not covered
- Below-threshold Laender-level and platform portals (DTVP, evergabe-online.de, state portals) are out of scope; Germany has no single below-threshold portal
- The foerderdatenbank.de federal grants database is behind bot protection and is not ingested
- German commercial register lookups (handelsregister.de, unternehmensregister.de) are not integrated; competitor company data is shown as unverified, never fabricated
Coverage notes, stated plainly
- Below-threshold Laender and platform portals are intentionally out of scope; coverage comes from the federal feed and TED.
- The oeffentlichevergabe.de open-data export carries no structured submission deadlines, so many German notices show no deadline rather than an estimated one.
- German company register lookups are deferred, so competition results for Germany are marked unverified.
Frequently asked
- Which portals does Tanax Edge track in Germany?
- We ingest oeffentlichevergabe.de, the federal Datenservice Öffentlicher Einkauf, through its open-data OCDS and eForms API, plus German above-threshold notices from TED. Both feeds contribute contract notices and award releases.
- Does Tanax Edge cover below-threshold tenders in Germany?
- Not the fragmented long tail. Germany has no single below-threshold portal, and the Laender-level and commercial platforms such as DTVP and evergabe-online.de are currently out of scope. What we show comes from the federal publication feed and TED.
- Is Germany on TED?
- Yes. German above-threshold tenders are published on TED, and Tanax Edge ingests those notices alongside the national oeffentlichevergabe.de feed.
- Where does award or competitor data for Germany come from?
- Award releases come from the oeffentlichevergabe.de OCDS feed and from TED award notices. German commercial register lookups are not integrated, so competitor company profiles are marked unverified rather than filled with guessed identifiers or financials.
