After you enter your keyword(s), you can choose how the system should search for them:
-
Mentions: Shows tenders where your keyword appears anywhere in the text.
-
Exact Match: Shows tenders where the exact phrase you typed appears exactly as written.
-
Any: Shows tenders that contain any of the keywords or phrases you entered.
â—‹ Mentions
Returns results containing all the words you searched for. For instance, searching 'hospital management system' will return results that include 'hospital', 'management', and 'system'. The presence of both words is essential, either adjacent or dispersed throughout the text. Typically, when conducting a tender search focused on a specific topic, you can utilize a combination of these words as desired.
â—‹ Exact Match
Ensures an exact match of the word or phrase. For example, the phrase 'public procurement' must appear exactly as specified. It focuses on finding the exact words as they are written within the text. This method is commonly used to search for technical terms or exact phrases of two or three words, as they appear.
â—‹ Any
Ensures that any word from the phrase matches. For example, either 'public' or 'procurement' must appear. The objective here is to list procurement opportunities in fields of interest using keyword groups. At least one of the specified words must appear within the text, and if you've listed 10 words, any combination of two, three, or all 10 words may appear in the text. The aim is to list results containing any of the specified words present, irrespective of which ones exactly, in order to generate comprehensive results. This method is typically employed to maximize result listings.

Filtering by Single Organizations or Organization Groups
From the dropdown list, choose the exact organization you want to follow (for example, a specific Ministry of Energy), then apply the filter.
Type a keyword (e.g. energy) in the Organizations field to search among all buyer organizations that match this term.
💡 Sample Information Note
In the sample screen shown in the image, the Organizations filter is used to narrow the results to specific buyers. By typing a keyword such as “energy” in the Organizations field, TendersGo searches all buyer names and displays a list of matching institutions (for example, different Ministries of Energy and related agencies). You can then select one or more organizations from this list and apply the filter so that the results table shows only tenders published by the selected buyers, while still respecting all other filters such as country, language, NAICS, CPV, or UNSPSC.
​
If you keep the Organizations filter empty, the search remains general, and results will include tenders from all buyers that meet your other criteria. When you add one or more organizations, the scope becomes focused, turning the same search into a targeted view of tenders issued only by your priority institutions (e.g. all “energy” ministries worldwide), which is ideal for account-based or buyer-focused business development.
.
Targeting Multiple Organizations in a Single Keyword-Based Search
In the Active Filters bar, the chip Organization Name: Energy, steel confirms that your search is now limited to organizations whose names match any of these reference keywords. All results on the page are filtered according to this combined organization basket.
Organization Keyword Basket
In the Organizations field, enter one or more reference keywords (for example: energy, steel). Each keyword acts as a “bucket” and includes all organizations whose names contain that term. Separate multiple keywords with commas to target several organization groups in a single search.

Results from All Matching Organizations; The tender list displays only notices published by organizations whose names include Energy or Steel (for example: national energy agencies, rail energy companies, steel authorities, etc.). Different buyers are grouped into one unified result set based on your organization keywords.
💡 Sample Information Note
In the sample screen, the Organizations filter is used to target a basket of buyers using reference keywords. In the Organizations field, the user has entered energy, steel. TendersGo scans all buyer names and automatically includes every organization whose name contains Energy or Steel (for example, energy ministries, rail energy companies, steel authorities, etc.). The results table then shows tenders published by all organizations that match any of these keywords.
​
If you leave the Organizations field empty, the search remains general and includes tenders from every buyer that matches your other criteria. When you enter one or more organization keywords, the same search becomes focused, turning it into a consolidated view of tenders issued only by your priority institution groups (for example, all “energy”-related organizations worldwide) within a single search.

Create a Tender Email Alert from Your Search

Enter one or more keyword groups in the Search field (for example: "diesel generators";"scada system";"solar energy").

💡 Sample Information Note
In the sample alert setup shown in the image, the keyword groups "diesel generators", "scada system", and "solar energy" are entered in the Search field, and the match method “Any” is selected while the Region is set to Europe. This means the system will create a single tender alert that monitors all European tenders and sends you an email whenever any of these keyword groups appears in the tender title or details. The Any method is broader and more flexible, helping you capture all opportunities related to any of the selected topics within your chosen region. If you want to combine multiple keyword groups in a single alert, enter each group separately as shown in the example, so all tenders matching any of them are included in the same email notification.
