`doffin_search`

Pack: doffin · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/doffin/mcp

Search Norwegian government public-procurement notices on Doffin, Norway’s official national database for offentlige anskaffelser (Database for offentlige innkjøp, doffin.no). PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for Norway public tenders / anbud, kunngjøringer, contract notices, contract award results (tildelinger), dynamic purchasing schemes, and intention announcements from Norwegian state and municipal buyers. Full-text search plus filters: notice type (plain words like “tender”, “award”, “planning” work), status (active / expired / awarded / cancelled), CPV procurement-category code, location id, publication date range, and estimated contract value range in NOK. Sortable by publication date, deadline, relevance, or estimated value. Each hit gets a public doffin.no notice URL attached. Requires a free Doffin API key via _apiKey when a platform key is unavailable.
