Methodology & sources
Records on this page are aggregated daily from TED (EU/EEA), Doffin (Norway), NSPA and NCIA (NATO supranational), SAM.gov (US DoD), and the four other Nordic national portals: e-Avrop/FMV.se (Sweden), udbud.dk (Denmark), HILMA (Finland), and Ríkiskaup (Iceland). Each record is verified against a curated buyer allowlist of 258 NATO defense entities and a defense-relevant CPV taxonomy before being tagged is_defense=true. Awards without disclosed contract values are flagged value_disclosure_status and excluded from average-value calculations.
