Save a search as a monitor when the results are close enough that you would want Tendify to keep checking for similar opportunities in the future.

A monitor does not need to be perfect on day one. You can improve it over time as you learn which results are useful and which should be excluded or narrowed.

No. CPV codes can help in procurement search, but you do not need to know them before using Tendify. Start with plain language and let the search help you shape the market you want to monitor.

If your team already uses specific CPV codes, you can use them as part of a more precise search setup where supported.

If the results are too limited, try using a broader phrase or removing overly specific terms. Some tenders describe the same work in different ways, so a very narrow search may miss relevant opportunities.

Start broader, review the results and then refine the search only after you understand the market volume.

If the results include too many irrelevant tenders, narrow the search. Try adding a more specific service area, buyer type, country, keyword or project type.

You can also split one broad search into multiple more focused searches. For example, instead of one monitor for “IT services inEurope,” create separate monitors for “cybersecurity services in Germany” and “software maintenance tenders in France.”

A good search result set does not need to be perfect. It should contain enough relevant opportunities that your team would realistically review them.

When reviewing results, ask yourself:

• Are the countries right?
• Are the tender topics relevant?
• Are the buyers or sectors interesting?
• Are the values and deadlines realistic?
• Would my team consider moving any of these into the pipeline?

A good search phrase should describe what you sell, where you want to find tenders and what kind of buyer or project you care about.

• Include the service or product you provide.
• Include the country or region if relevant.
• Use business language, not only procurement language.
• Avoid being too narrow on the first try unless you know exactly what you need.

Tender Search helps you turn business intent into tender criteria. You can start with onboarding inputs and a search phrase, then review the results that Tendify finds for your market.

A good search is not only about finding as many tenders as possible. It should produce opportunities that are close enough for your team to review, save as a monitor or move into the pipeline.
