Built for every side of manufacturing
Machinery manufacturers and dealers
Find equipment tenders that match your product range, with the technical specifications, installation and training obligations read out of the documents.
Component and equipment suppliers
Spot pump, compressor, drive and spare part frameworks early, and see the conformity and warranty requirements before you commit stock.
Instrument and laboratory equipment makers
Match analysers, measuring devices and testing equipment against the requirement annexes, and catch calibration and service contracts alongside the supply.
Contract manufacturers and fabricators
Find fabrication, assembly and custom production contracts, with the drawings, tolerances and acceptance tests summarised for you.
Machinery tenders are won or lost in the details
Relevant contracts are difficult to find
Equipment scopes hide inside broader tenders: a production line inside a plant renovation, machinery inside an EU-funded programme. Titles alone rarely tell you.
Tendly matches on your products, services and markets, and its AI search reads past the title into the tender's own documents, so buried equipment scopes still reach you.
Requirements are spread across many documents
Technical specifications, standards, installation and training obligations and the draft contract arrive as separate attachments, and any one can contain a dealbreaker.
Tendly reads the attachments from the source portal and answers questions across the whole pack, so requirements stop hiding in annex eight of twenty.
Eligibility hinges on conformity and references
CE conformity, harmonised standards, comparable installations and a service network in the buyer's country: miss one mandatory criterion and the bid is out before evaluation starts.
Tendly's requirements analysis lists what the buyer demands and what evidence proves it, so you know whether you qualify before anyone prices the machine.
One contract clause can change the bid decision
Delivery schedules and penalties, acceptance tests, warranty periods and spare part availability obligations sit in the draft contract, not the tender notice.
Tendly's risk analysis reads the contract conditions and lists the clauses that affect margin and delivery risk, before you decide to bid rather than after you win.
Incumbents quietly win the renewals
Many equipment tenders extend an installed base: whoever supplied the last machines has the compatibility advantage. Without the award history you cannot tell an open race from a formality.
Buyer and competitor intelligence shows the buyer's previous suppliers and contract values, so you can pick the tenders where a challenger has a real chance.
Everything you need to assess a machinery tender
Find contracts that match your company
Tendly matches new machinery tenders against the products and services your company actually supplies, and alerts you when something relevant is published or a deadline approaches.
Check whether you qualify
Tendly reads the eligibility requirements out of the tender documents and shows what evidence your company needs, and where you would need a partner.
Analyse specifications and technical annexes
Tendly reads the technical specifications and annexes in the tender pack, including the attachments on the source portal, and answers questions across all of it.
Understand contract and margin risk
The risk analysis reads the draft contract and conditions and lists the clauses that decide whether the margin survives delivery and the warranty period.
Learn from previous awards
Buyer and competitor intelligence shows who has equipped the buyer before, at what values, and how crowded the field usually is.
Prepare the tender
Generate response documents, fill the buyer's official forms in their original format and run a compliance check, or hand the whole bid to a Tendly tender expert.

Tendly's chat reads the tender's own attachments, fetched from the source portal, and answers in your language. These are the kinds of questions equipment suppliers ask it every day.

Machinery tender questions, answered
How can I find public machinery and equipment tenders?
Tendly monitors more than 150,000 public tenders across 23 countries and updates daily. You can browse live machinery tenders by category and country, or make a company profile so matching and email alerts bring relevant contracts to you, including equipment scopes inside broader tenders.
Can Tendly analyse the technical specifications?
Yes. Tendly reads the tender's attachments, including the technical specification, drawings lists and standards references, and answers questions about specific requirements in your language.
Can Tendly check the conformity requirements?
The requirements analysis lists the eligibility criteria out of the documents: CE conformity, harmonised standards, comparable references, service network requirements and submission documents, so you know before anyone prices the machine.
Does Tendly show acceptance tests and performance guarantees?
Yes, they live in the tender documents and the chat reads them out: how acceptance is measured, over what period, and what happens if the guaranteed performance is missed.
Can Tendly tell us who equipped the buyer before?
Buyer intelligence shows a contracting authority's award history: who has won its equipment contracts, at what values, and whether the same supplier wins repeatedly, which matters when an installed base gives the incumbent a compatibility advantage.
Are service and maintenance obligations covered?
Yes. Ask the chat and it reads the service scope out of the draft contract: response times, spare part availability periods, maintenance schedules and how service prices are fixed or indexed.
Can Tendly help prepare the complete equipment bid?
The AI tools generate response documents, fill the buyer's official forms in their original format and review the pack for gaps. If you would rather hand it over completely, a Tendly tender expert can prepare every document in the bid for you: technical proposals, financial offers, forms, CVs and the compliance checks. You approve everything before submission.
Can Tendly help if we have never entered a public tender before?
Yes. The chat explains how public procurement works in plain language, the requirements analysis shows exactly what a specific tender demands, and the expert service can carry a first bid end to end so your team learns the process on a real contract.
Can Tendly help us bid in another country?
Tendly covers 23 countries and answers in your language even when the tender documents are not. For a first bid in a new market, the tender expert handles the local portal, language and paperwork.
Do we need to speak the local language to bid?
You can research any tender in your own language: Tendly reads the original documents and answers in the language you write in. The submission itself usually must follow the buyer's language rules, which the documents state, and the tender expert can prepare it for you.
