Public-sector procurement source coverage

Geographic gaps in the registry

These gaps describe the registry's source remits only. They do not indicate whether relevant announcements exist, and they do not claim comprehensive Tender Trail coverage.

England: local-authority areas outside the 36 registered English council remits.
Wales: local-authority areas outside the 5 registered Welsh council remits.

Selected issuer-domain roster: 84 local authorities, including the configured 36 English councils, all 32 Scottish local authorities, all 11 Northern Ireland local authorities, and the selected Welsh councils Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Wrexham and Rhondda Cynon Taf, plus 52 social-housing providers. Welsh council procurement searches use publicly indexed Sell2Wales notices; council-specific portals and private invitations remain documented gaps. Scottish council news searches use verified council websites where available and procurement searches use Public Contracts Scotland; linked pages document a source starting point, not complete coverage. Daily selected-source searches run in ten shards from 08:15 to 09:45 UTC, followed by opportunity reclassification at 10:30 UTC. The same job also runs category-level painting and decorating notice scans on Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI, plus indexed public Delta eSourcing tenant notice pages and Lancaster University’s public In-Tend current-tender listing; registration-gated documents, Q&A and tender actions are not collected. The full scheduled sourcing system also covers configured tier-one publishers, public LinkedIn company updates, NHS and university announcements, Stotles painting tenders, Find a Tender painting terms, government funding, council and planning notices, and contractor announcements. These are selected-source searches and imports, not direct provider feeds or exhaustive coverage. Matching records retain their original URLs, discovery URLs where applicable, and source-reported dates separately from the source check date. Unsupported feeds remain unsearched, and run-budget and indexing limits mean coverage is not exhaustive or real time.

Known source gaps

Search indexing and ranking can miss relevant pages even on a selected issuer website.
Unlinked third-party procurement portals, login-only notices, PDFs, unindexed pages and other unselected council or social-housing websites are outside this scan.
This is selected-source coverage and is not exhaustive or real time.
A linked official page documents a source starting point, not complete coverage. Dedicated feed pages are not verified for every provider; results are retained only when the HTTPS URL matches the configured search host and the title or snippet passes housing-work and feed-specific checks.
Radius Housing and Clanmil have no dedicated supplier tender listing confirmed; their procurement checks stay on their official domains and matching items remain leads to verify.
Choice Housing documents eTendersNI as its supplier route. CPV-profile alerts and specialist non-construction invitations below £30,000 are not guaranteed to appear in a general search.
Pobl Group’s official poblgroup.co.uk domain was checked on 2026-10-12 and redirects to https://codigroup.co.uk/ for Welsh operations. Separate Pobl-specific news and procurement sources remain unsupported; the Pobl coverage row shows the dated channel gaps, and current Codi evidence remains attributed to Codi.
The owner-listed Gentoo and Wrekin domains are retained for traceability, while searches use provider-branded gentoogroup.com and wrekin.com pages; those domain mappings still need owner confirmation.
Welsh local-authority coverage is selected to Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Wrexham and Rhondda Cynon Taf. Their dated source-page checks and authority remit are shown on each feed row. Newsroom searches do not ingest separate planning registers; procurement searches use public Sell2Wales pages only, while the council-specific eTenderWales, PROACTIS, Find a Tender workflows, downloads, direct invitations and Quick Quotes recorded in the destination notes remain outside this path.
Scottish council procurement checks use the shared Public Contracts Scotland register and retain results only when the council name appears in the result. Quick Quotes, account-specific alerts, unlinked portals, login-only notices and other unindexed pages may not appear; Scottish housing-provider checks retain their separate configured source rules.
Delta eSourcing uses buyer-specific tenant subdomains. The scan searches indexed public notice detail pages on delta-esourcing.com and does not enumerate every buyer portal; unindexed notices, private invitations, registration-gated documents and tender actions may not appear.
For Glasgow City, City of Edinburgh, Aberdeen City, Dundee City and Fife Council, the dated official planning registers or weekly lists are recorded in their source notes as gaps because the existing collector supports news and procurement feeds but has no planning feed. Glasgow City news is unsupported because its official pages returned HTTP 403 when checked on 2026-10-12; the source remains explicitly marked unsupported.
For Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside, Oldham, Rochdale and Rotherham, the dated official planning registers and local procurement channels are shown as gaps in the admin coverage view. The configured ingestion path searches their council News pages and Find a Tender only; it does not ingest planning registers or the separate council e-tendering/contract-register channels.
A feed with no configured authoritative source is marked unsupported; a failed selected-site search is marked unavailable.
The 136 selected issuers create 272 issuer/feed checks. News and procurement checks sharing an issuer search domain use one combined search; results still pass each feed's own validation. Each of the ten scheduled shards has a 240-second search budget, so some checks may still be marked not reached and receive priority by oldest attempt on the next daily run; results may also use a one-hour web-search cache.
A current status confirms a successful selected-source search with a matching item, not an open notice or complete coverage. The original result URL is retained; publisher dates are kept only when clearly labelled published or updated, separately from the source-search check date.

Uses each opportunity’s recorded value and basis. No amounts are inferred.

Contract value range

Minimum contract value (£)

Maximum contract value (£)

Matches only eligible GBP amounts recorded against the cited source. Recorded value ranges match when they overlap this range; unrecorded or ineligible values do not match.

Planning leads and live procurement notices

Use the original source link on a card when a source URL is recorded. Procurement notices are leads to investigate, not confirmation that the buyer will proceed or that work remains available; planning applications surface proposed activity but do not confirm a live tender, award or available contract.

Specialist work-type evidence coverage

Counts require a published opportunity with a valid cited source and a recorded matching work type. Zero means no matching source-backed opportunity is currently published.
