find_a_tender_recent
Pack: uk-contracts · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/uk-contracts/mcp
Recent HIGH-VALUE UK government tenders and contract awards from the Find a Tender Service (find-tender.service.gov.uk) — the UK’s above-threshold procurement portal (the post-Brexit replacement for EU TED, for larger public contracts). Use for “high value UK tenders”, “above threshold UK government contracts”, “Find a Tender notices”, “large UK public sector contract opportunities”. Returns recent notices newest-first; an optional keyword filters them by title/description (client-side, since the FTS feed has no server search). For lower-value / general UK notices use search_notices (Contracts Finder). Keyless.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
keyword | string | no | Optional keyword to filter recent notices by title/description, e.g. “cloud”, “construction”. Omit to list all recent. |
stage | string | no | Notice stage: “tender” (open opportunities, default), “award” (results), or “planning”. |
days | number | no | How many days back to scan, 1–30 (default 7). |
limit | number | no | Max notices to return, 1–100 (default 20). |
