How to Use CPV Codes to
Find Best-Fit Tenders

CPV Codes are a critical component of finding your best-fit tenders!

Tenders, that are aligned to your business strategies, goals, products and services. And giving you the best chance of compiling higher scoring tender responses and improving your win rates.

But are your targeting strategies and sourcing methods working?

CPV (common procurement vocabulary) codes are a complex classification used for public procurement of products and services within the EU and UK.

Choosing the correct codes as part of your search criteria on Public Procurement Portals (e.g. TED EU/FTS UK) is vital. But they are often misunderstood and incorrectly used by both Procuring Agencies and Bidding Organisations.

So, it’s really important that your Sales and Bid Teams have a deeper knowledge of CPV classifications and hierarchy and how best to use them.


Smarter CPV use can:

  • Filter out unnecessary tender opportunities to review and qualify.
  • Reduce the risks of missing relevant best-fit tender opportunities.
  • Help prioritise opportunities with the better matched CPV codes.
