Bid on fewer defense contracts and win more of them

A typical defense supplier sees hundreds of open notices a week across SAM.gov, Find a Tender, TED and the NATO agencies, and can write maybe two or three good proposals a month. The work is deciding which ones to skip. A plan scores every open notice against your capability profile and explains the score, so your bid or no-bid meeting starts from a short list instead of a spreadsheet of keyword hits.

Notices that fit but close too soon still have value: they tell you which buyer is spending in your field and which incumbent to watch when the work comes back as a recompete. Teams comparing tools before they buy can read how we stack up as a GovWin alternative and a GovTribe alternative.

Questions about open defence opportunities

Where are defense contracts for bid published?
US opportunities are posted on SAM.gov, UK ones on Find a Tender and Contracts Finder, EU ones on Tenders Electronic Daily, and NATO agencies publish on their own sites. We read all of them and keep the link to each original notice.
Can I bid on these as a foreign company?
Some notices are open to any supplier, others are limited to companies from the buying country, the EU or NATO members, or to holders of a security clearance. The eligibility rules are in the full notice.
How do I find the ones that fit my company?
Describe what you supply in the form below. We score every open notice against it and explain each score, so you read ten relevant notices instead of hundreds.
Why do you show only 25 rows?
The public page shows the newest notices so you can see the data. A plan opens every open notice, the full history, filters, daily alerts and exports. The match below is a one-time demo.
