Who it serves

Built for every kind of IT company

Software development companies

Find development, migration and integration projects that match your references and capacity, including software scopes hidden inside broader digitalisation programmes.

IT service and consulting firms

Spot support and maintenance frameworks, consulting mandates and capacity agreements early, and see what evidence the buyer expects before you commit a team.

SaaS and product vendors

Match your product against the functional and security requirements in the tender pack, and catch licence renewals and replacements as they are published.

IT infrastructure and hardware suppliers

Find equipment, network and data-centre contracts, with the technical specifications and delivery terms read out of the documents for you.

The problem

IT tenders are won or lost in the details

Relevant work is difficult to find

IT scopes hide inside broader tenders: a software module inside a modernisation programme, an integration inside an equipment purchase. Titles alone rarely tell you.

How Tendly helps

Tendly matches on your services, references and markets, and its AI search reads past the title into the tender's own documents, so buried IT scopes still reach you.

Requirements are spread across many documents

Functional requirements, integration lists, security annexes, data-protection terms and the draft contract arrive as separate attachments, and any one can contain a dealbreaker.

How Tendly helps

Tendly reads the attachments from the source portal and answers questions across the whole pack, so requirements stop hiding in annex nine of twenty.

Eligibility hinges on references and certificates

Comparable project references, ISO certificates, named experts and their CVs, minimum turnover: miss one mandatory criterion and the bid is out before evaluation starts.

How Tendly helps

Tendly's requirements analysis lists what the buyer demands and what evidence proves it, so you know whether you qualify before anyone writes a proposal.

One contract clause can change the bid decision

Service levels and penalties, intellectual property transfer, liability, exit and handover obligations sit in the draft contract, not the tender notice.

How Tendly helps

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 IT tenders are re-procurements of a running system. Without knowing who built it and at what price, you cannot tell an open race from a formality.

How Tendly helps

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.

FAQ

IT tender questions, answered

How can I find public IT and software tenders?

Tendly monitors more than 150,000 public tenders across 23 countries and updates daily. You can browse live IT and software tenders by category and country, or build a company profile so matching and email alerts bring relevant projects to you, including IT scopes inside broader tenders.

Can Tendly analyse the requirement specifications?

Yes. Tendly reads the tender's attachments, including the requirement specification, integration lists and security annexes, and answers questions about specific requirements in your language.

Can Tendly check whether we qualify for a tender?

The requirements analysis lists the eligibility criteria out of the documents: comparable references, certificates such as ISO 27001, named experts, minimum turnover and submission documents, so you know before anyone writes a proposal.

Does Tendly cover framework agreements and dynamic purchasing systems?

Yes, frameworks and dynamic purchasing systems appear alongside ordinary tenders, and the chat can explain the call-off and admission rules from the published documents of a specific procedure.

Can Tendly tell us who the incumbent supplier is?

Buyer intelligence shows a contracting authority's award history: who has won its IT contracts, at what values, and whether the same supplier wins repeatedly, which is often the single most useful fact when deciding whether to challenge a re-procurement.

Can part of the delivery be subcontracted?

Subcontracting rules live in the tender documents, and they differ per procedure. Ask the chat and it reads the rules out of that tender's own conditions, including any limits and declaration requirements.

Can Tendly help prepare the complete IT 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 project.

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.
