Bid for French public contracts without losing your evenings
The monitoring finds the tenders that match you and tells you why. The buyer’s documents are read for you, and the French forms reuse what your profile already knows about your organisation. The app itself is in French.

Sunday, 10 pm
The tender rules run to thirty pages. The deadline is Tuesday noon. You still have to find the award criteria and the list of documents, copy your SIRET number into three forms, and your social security certificate is seven months old.
With Ngento, you upload the buyer’s documents and they are read straight away: the deadline, the documents required and the criteria appear, each with the page it comes from. Anything missing becomes a question, asked once.
Day to day
What you won’t have to do any more
Trawl through notices every morning
The monitoring reads French and European notices and announced purchasing plans, and keeps only those matching your profile.
Hunt for the deadline on page 17
Dates, documents, criteria and how to submit are picked out of the documents, with their source.
Type your SIRET for the tenth time
The DC1, DC2 and the contract form come out pre-filled; the DUME has its own answer sheet.
Start from a blank page
The technical proposal outline follows the award criteria, from the heaviest weighting down.
Find an expired certificate too late
Your certificates are stored with their expiry date; the screen flags those about to expire.
Submit at 11:58
A notification 7, 3 and 1 day before each deadline of the tenders you follow.
How it works
The steps of a bid
Find the tender
Each tender gets a score out of 100, and every point is explained in one sentence.
Read the documents
You download them from the buyer’s platform and upload them here: PDF, Word (.docx) or .zip archive.
Write the proposal
The outline follows the criteria; you write, you approve.
A score that explains itself
Why this tender, and not another
A score on its own says nothing. Here each point has its sentence: your keyword is in the title, the place is in your département, the deadline is in 23 days. For a purchasing plan, which announces an estimated value, your turnover is compared with the cap French law sets for buyers: as a rule, they cannot require more than one and a half times that value. Ngento does not take amounts from BOAMP or European notices.
You see at a glance where to go, and what might be a problem.
Submitting
We prepare, you submit
Buyers' platforms expect you to submit yourself. Ngento does not log into them: it gives you the list of files, named and ready, the details to copy and the direct link.
If the tender rules accept an answer by email, the file can be sent from Ngento; if the uploaded rules require the platform, sending by email is blocked, so your bid is not thrown out.
