# Where do medical equipment suppliers find public tenders?

Medical suppliers watch CPV division 33, medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, and the hospital buyers who publish outside the national portal. In the measured Portuguese market, division 33 carried 3,063 opening announcements in 2026, and the platform concentration is extreme: Vortal hosted the large majority of everything the health system announced. Hospitals and central purchasing agencies are mapped as their own sources by TRINTA precisely because the national portal under-covers this sector.
