2. Deepbloo Business Development Solution
⬆️ To access to the business interface with tenders and business opportunities, go on the section “Tenders/RFQ’s”.
There are two main views:
1. See all tenders which display all tenders of the platform which are live or expired (less than 6 months). The tenders expired for more than 6 months are archived and not accessible any more. However we keep the data available for BI purposes
- My Pipeline of tenders which display the tenders corresponding only to your business preferences: Your pipeline is built to display only the opportunities which correspond to your CPV (type of activities and products you are interested in – click here to know more on CPV’s) and in the geographical areas defined by you. To see how to set-up your business preferences on your Profile, click here
🚀 This pipeline is updated every day with new coming opportunities. We scan +40 000 sources on a daily basis, any tender matching your CPV codes and geographical areas will be added to your pipeline.
🔎 The search bar is based on a powerful search engine technology:
- Spelling mistakes are accepted
- Synonyms are managed (1)
- The system will search on the tender title, tender description
- The system will show first the most relevant results based on the algorithm (exact word matching, publication date…)
To know more about how we return results to you query, click here.
(1) We use synonyms to make your search easier and more relevant. For example, if you type “microgrid”, we will return you results of tenders related to “microgrid” but as well “nanogrid”, “minigrid”, “micro-réseau”, etc.
If you want us to create synonyms for you, we do this for free. Just make your request here.
Example: typing “solar” on the search bar ⬇️
The number of results will be displayed on the top right side of the screen. It will correspond to all tenders of the platform which are live or expired (less than 6 months).
2.3.1 Use of filters
On the left side, you will find the filters when you can refine the search.
Today, we have 13 different filters :
• Some simple filters such as: Bid deadline, publication date, notice type, procurement method, ect.
• Advanced filter : such as scope of work, segment, brands, ect…
If for example, I would like to search tenders which are not expired in Africa, I select the filters.
• The system will display the results on the right
• Selected filters will be recorded on the top
2.3.2 “Notice type” filter
We do not display only tenders but other businesses such as contract award, procurement plan, ect.
To select the type of information, you like to see, use the filter “Notice type”.
2.4.1 Choose table or pipeline view
On the top right side, the number will indicate the number of tenders corresponding to the filters.
The results can be displayed on 2 forms :

2.4.2 Table view
2.4.3 Pipeline view
On the pipeline view, you can select/unselect the columns you like to display.
You will have access to the same filters as the ones in the left part of the screen and you can use both to refine the pipeline.
We have developed advanced filters where the Deepbloo algorithm recognizes the context of a tender in order to identify relevant business opportunities.
2.5.1 Scope of work
- You can filter to select tenders depending on the type of jobs (installation, maintenance, supply, repair, commissioning, ect…)
- In the example below, only installation projects with SOLAR keywords will appear. If another scope of work is identified, it will appear too (for example maintenance)
2.5.2 Segment
We have as well the possibility to identify in which segments (residential, commercial, rural elec…) the tenders is. In the below example, if I select Rooftop, the system will select tenders in Africa with Solar keyword in the rooftop segment which have been identified in title or description.
2.5.3 Brand
Deepbloo algorithm has the capability to identify brands of manufacturers. This will allow you to identify tenders requiring specific brands. In the example below, I can select various brands for the word “Transformer”
2.5.4 Long term agreement identification
The filter “contract Type” will enable you to identify tenders requiring long term agreement.
In the example below, the result table will display the tenders for the word “Transformer” in India which are requiring a frame agreement or a long term contract.
We are currently working to propose more filters on the next release such as amount of tenders, funding organization, metrics (KW, ect…)
