01 / THE PROBLEM

Federal award data is public.
Useful signals are buried.

Searching one award at a time is slow. Raw records are dense. Commercial databases are expensive. Award Scout gives you a practical middle path.

A

Know the incumbent

See which company currently holds the work, alongside the recipient UEI and source award.

B

Find the timing

Calculate days until the listed contract end date and surface likely renewal-window signals.

C

Build your list

Filter by keyword, NAICS, agency, recipient, award value, activity date, and contract status.

02 / HOW IT WORKS

From public records to a usable lead list.

1

Define your market

Enter the keywords, NAICS codes, agencies, value range, or recipient names that matter to you.

2

Run the scout

The Actor queries USAspending, normalizes the records, and applies your timing and status filters.

3

Use the intelligence

Download JSON, CSV, Excel, or connect the dataset to your CRM, spreadsheet, or agent workflow.

03 / BUILT FOR ACTION

One dataset.
Several ways to win.

Designed for GovCon teams, consultants, researchers, and builders who need structured evidence—not another dashboard to babysit.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Prioritize contracts approaching their listed end date.

Find the agency, incumbent, value, NAICS code, and timing signal you need for focused account research.

COMPETITIVE INTELLIGENCE

Track who is winning in your market.

Build evidence-backed competitor lists from recent contract activity.

AUTOMATION

Use Apify datasets and API access to power spreadsheets, CRMs, or AI agents.

05 / QUICK ANSWERS

Before you run it.

Is this an official government product?+

No. Award Scout is an independent Apify Actor that uses the official public USAspending API. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. government.

Does a contract-ending signal guarantee a recompete?+

No. It is a research signal based on the listed award end date, not a prediction or procurement notice. Confirm opportunities through agency forecasts, SAM.gov, and primary acquisition sources.

Do I need technical skills?+

No coding is required for a basic run. Use the Apify input form, review the dataset, and download it in your preferred format.

Where does the data come from?+

Records come from the public USAspending API. Every saved row includes the award ID and a direct USAspending source link for verification.
