Sources & Data Coverage

Source approach

WinIntel reviews relevant public-source context where available. Coverage depends on jurisdiction, procurement route, threshold, source availability and whether the procurement falls under current or legacy rules.

Sources that may be reviewed

• Find a Tender — the central publication service for above-threshold and transparency notices under the Procurement Act 2023 for England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
• Contracts Finder — central government and arm's-length body contracts above the relevant threshold, published for England.
• Public Contracts Scotland — Scottish public-sector procurement opportunities.
• Sell2Wales — the national advertising portal for Welsh public-sector opportunities.
• eTendersNI / eSourcing NI — Northern Ireland government procurement portals where relevant.
• Buyer documents and source notices — where publicly available from the contracting authority.

Coverage limits

WinIntel does not claim complete coverage of all UK public-sector opportunities. Official source data can be incomplete, delayed, corrected, jurisdiction-specific or affected by legacy procurement rules. Coverage for any specific opportunity depends on what is available in public sources at the time of review.

Coverage may be affected by: jurisdiction (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland); procurement route (above-threshold, below-threshold, framework, dynamic purchasing); commencement date (Procurement Act 2023 applies to procurements commenced after relevant commencement dates; legacy regimes continue for earlier procurements); and source-document availability at the time of review.

Payment Visibility

Any Payment Visibility Indicator is based on lagged, organisation-level public information where available. It does not predict payments, assess credit, or give a view on whether a specific buyer will pay a specific supplier on time for a specific contract.

OGL attribution
