Costa Rica's integrated public purchasing system.
The market around it, Costa Rica
SICOP is one of the named national channels in Costa Rica. Beside them, 6 more sources publish their own notices; they are counted by category on the country page, never listed, because the complete source map is what sets the radar apart.
Opening 9 pages every morning is feasible for a week, not for a commercial year. That is the cost this fragmentation imposes on every supplier that takes the market seriously.
What TRINTA does with it
SICOP is read on the TRINTA daily scan. 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.
