# Coverage - Title: Coverage — the procurement sources Sinal reads - URL: https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/coverage - Language: en - Updated: 2026-11-06 - Alternate (pt-PT): https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/pt/cobertura (markdown: https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/pt/cobertura.md) - Alternate (es-ES): https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/es/cobertura (markdown: https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/es/cobertura.md) Coverage The table lists 22 sources. 19 are read on a schedule (the Cadence column says how often) and 4 of those are samples: they read only a small part of what the source publishes, and the row says how much. The “In Sinal” column says where each source's data appears in the product: alerts and Your week cover Portugal and Spain, alerts also cover the rest of Europe, and the other regions can be browsed. 3 are marked “Coming soon” and are not read yet. PLACSP is one row and is read from 5 of its feeds.

ASIA · Coming soon ## Which tenders and awards are kept For tenders and awards, Sinal keeps what falls inside the nine sectors below and drops the rest. For most sources, some codes count only when the text of the notice also mentions the topic. - IT services, software and business consultancy: IT services, software packages, and business and management consultancy, including procurement consultancy - Resilient communications and power: radio, satellite and network equipment, telecom services, backup power and batteries, generators, and security and fire-safety equipment - Industrial automation and telemetry: control systems, telemetry, metering and monitoring - IT hardware: computers and their maintenance - Water and wastewater: supply, treatment, pumps and related works - Agricultural services and irrigation: farm services and irrigation works - Renewable energy and energy efficiency: solar, wind, hydrogen, district heating, and energy-management and efficiency consultancy - Mobility and rail: electric vehicles, rolling stock, railway works and traffic systems - Engineering and architecture: design, planning and construction supervision The filter applies in Iberia and Europe, to TED, PLACSP, PSCP, KPE, BASE PT, BASE PT API and BASE PT Anúncios. TED in Europe is filtered by CPV code when it is queried, without the per-code exclusions or the text check, so it keeps some records that would be dropped from the other sources. It does not apply to World Bank, IDB, PNCP Contratações, PNCP Contratos, SECOP and GeBIZ, which are read without a sector filter, nor to funding calls, contract amendments and the entity registry, which carry no sector code. ## How each source is doing today This page says how each source is read, not how it is doing today. The app shows each source's latest run and whether it is healthy. [Open the app →](https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/app?lang=en) ## Known limits - Below-threshold direct awards (ajustes diretos, contratos menores) are published inconsistently and sometimes late. We surface what is published; we cannot surface what is not. - Annex documents behind an authenticated platform login cannot be read. - Regional platforms' open tenders reach Sinal through PLACSP's aggregation feed (Catalunya, Euskadi, Andalucía, Madrid, Galicia, Navarra, La Rioja). Their contratos menores do not: Catalonia's and Euskadi's are read directly (PSCP, KPE); Andalucía's, Madrid's and Galicia's are not covered. - Our records from World Bank, IDB and GeBIZ carry no link to an original page. - Notice text in Catalan, Basque or Galician is read, but our matching quality there is lower than in Portuguese, Spanish and English. The sources above also feed dated counts of our own. [Field notes](https://sinal-pme.babete.pt/field-notes) publish them with their period, sample and limits, so you can see what a figure covers and what it does not.
