search_notices

Pack: uk-contracts · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/uk-contracts/mcp

Search UK government procurement notices (open tenders + awarded contracts) from Contracts Finder, published as OCDS by the Cabinet Office. Filter by stage and an optional published-date range; results are newest-first. Keyless. The UK complement to EU tenders. Note: there is no server-side keyword filter — pass a keyword to filter client-side over title/description of the returned window.
