Daily Tender Volume and Value Overview

This significant new tender value indicates robust procurement activity across both public and private sectors, suggesting strong investment and development initiatives moving forward in the new year.

This closure rate of approximately 15.7% of new tenders suggests a steady pipeline of opportunities moving through procurement cycles. The awarded tender count remained relatively low at just 6 awards, totaling $50,521,760.00 USD in contract value. This modest award activity may indicate either careful evaluation processes or seasonal factors affecting final decision timelines.
The average bid window of 15.56 days provides suppliers with slightly over two weeks to prepare and submit responses for new opportunities. This timeframe represents a standard preparation period in many procurement markets, balancing the need for thorough proposal development against procurement efficiency requirements.

South Africa contributed 63 new tenders (7.7%), representing important procurement activity in the African market.
Canada's relatively low count of 4 new tenders (0.5%) suggests either regional reporting variations or specific market conditions affecting tender publication on this particular date. The geographic concentration in English-speaking and Middle Eastern markets indicates potential language accessibility factors or regional economic cycles influencing tender publication patterns.

Sector Analysis and Procurement Categories
The 'Other' category dominated sector distribution with 503 tenders (61.3% of total), indicating a diverse range of procurement activities that don't fit neatly into standard classification categories. This substantial majority suggests either broad procurement needs across multiple specialized areas or potential classification system limitations in capturing specific procurement types.
Non-Consulting Services represented the second largest category with 95 tenders (11.6%), reflecting continued demand for operational, maintenance, and specialized service contracts. Direct Purchase opportunities accounted for 88 tenders (10.7%), indicating procurement activities focused on straightforward acquisition of goods and standardized services without complex bidding requirements.
Public Competition tenders numbered 33 (4.0%), representing formal competitive bidding processes typically associated with government procurement. Works contracts accounted for 28 tenders (3.4%), covering construction, engineering, and infrastructure development projects. The sector distribution highlights the predominance of service-oriented and direct procurement over major capital works projects on this particular date.

Award Activity and Market Implications
Only 6 tenders were awarded on January 15, 2026, with a total value of $50,521,760.00 USD. This modest award activity represents just 0.73% of new tenders published on the same day, suggesting either delayed award decisions from earlier publication dates or careful evaluation processes extending beyond typical timelines. The awarded value represents approximately 2.16% of the new tender value published, indicating that larger-value opportunities may still be under evaluation.
The winning suppliers were distributed across five different companies, each receiving one award. Ready Data Inc (140 W End Avenue), Therapy Pros, Prutech Solutions, Show the Good Consulting LLC (495 Henry Street), and Flywheel Film LLC (57 Turner Place) all secured single contracts. This distribution suggests diverse procurement needs across technology, healthcare services, consulting, and creative sectors rather than concentration in any single industry.
The limited award count against substantial new tender publication creates a growing pipeline of opportunities under evaluation. Suppliers should monitor both new publications and potential award announcements from previously closed tenders. The geographic and sector patterns from January 15, 2026, suggest continued opportunities in U.S. and U.K. markets, particularly in service categories and specialized procurement areas classified under the broad 'Other' sector.
