The national channels

These are the public, national-level sources: anyone can find them in one search. They carry a large share of the notices, not all of them.

SECOP II

Colombia's national electronic procurement system, run by Colombia Compra Eficiente.

And everything that publishes beside them

Beyond the national channels, 9 more sources in Colombia publish their own notices. We count them by category without naming them: the complete source map is what sets the radar apart, and it is not published.

SECOP's completeness creates its own problem: volume. Hundreds of thousands of processes a year, a fraction of which is genuinely contestable. Reading it daily and scoring for fit is precisely the work a radar exists to do.

What TRINTA does on this market

TRINTA reads these sources every day so the company does not have to. The radar is built per client: it starts from the company's real catalogue, builds a multilingual keyword profile, then scores every notice 0 to 100 against what the company actually sells, with the reasoning shown. Procedure documents are retrieved and attached, and a short scored list arrives each morning.

The same radar covers 153+ countries and 1,539 mapped official platforms, plus the multilateral lenders. A company selling in Colombia rarely sells only in Colombia.
