Open navigational, measuring & control instruments tenders

Shading is the number of open solicitations, on a log scale.

273 open notices publish no place of performance, so they are in no state above. They are still findable — by keyword, by agency, or by the buying office below.

Grouped by NAICS sector. Pick a sector on the left, then an industry group.

Windows do not overlap, so each one is a different set of notices. Deadlines are UTC, and notices whose deadline the source never published are in none of these windows.

Or by when the buyer posted it. One state register (Washington) publishes no posting date, so its notices are in none of these.

The system that published the notice. Federal work comes from SAM.gov; everything else is a state or city procurement portal.

What kind of notice this is, in one vocabulary across federal, state and city portals.

• Open for bids272 A live solicitation you can respond to now.
• Coming soon24 Announced ahead of the solicitation — time to get ready before it opens.
• Market research29 The buyer is asking the market how to write the requirement. Answering one is how you get in front of them before the bid exists.
• Announcement19 An announcement rather than an invitation — often an intent to award without competition.

The body doing the buying. Federal notices show their sub-agency; state and city boards show their own name.
