Coverage and method
TED covers awards above the EU thresholds; national registers (France DECP/BOAMP, Spain PLACSP, Germany, Netherlands) add some below them. Price, SME and contract-end details come mainly from TED eForms, so each figure gives the number of awards behind it. Sources of the projects on this page (open and awarded): TED 852, BOAMP 1.
