How this page is compiled

Aggregated by ENKII from the complete eForms-era notice stream on Tenders Electronic Daily — every European above-threshold notice published since December 2023, reduced to monthly figures per country and CPV category. Award values are converted to EUR at ECB monthly reference rates, with per-notice totals outside €500–€5bn excluded as data errors. Refreshed monthly.
