Monitor Public Awards

Pick a public award register and a time window and it returns the companies that won public work in it, one flat row per winning company rather than one per award, with award count, total value, largest award, awarding body, award date, a deep link to the source record, and a resolved company domain. Five registers are covered: US federal contracts and US federal grants from USASpending, NIH SBIR and STTR from NIH RePORTER, and UK Contracts Finder and UK Find a Tender. This reports awards that have already been made, so it is not a tender feed and will not tell you what is open to bid on. US federal data lags about two days, so a one day window on a US register returns little or nothing. Winners are sorted by total award value and max_entities is the hard cap on billed rows. Requires an APIFY_TOKEN and consumes Apify credits. Read only.

Input parameters:

- `domain_confidence_floor` (string): How sure the actor has to be before it gives you a domain. Strict returns fewer domains and almost no wrong ones. Loose returns the most domains and about a third of them are wrong. Default: "standar…
- `exclude_government_recipients` (boolean): Drops winners that are themselves government, universities, or public authorities. Leave this on for the grant registers or you get state departments of education instead of companies. Default: true.
- `max_entities` (string): Hard cap on billed rows. 1 to 1000. Winners are sorted by total award value, and the run log says how many were dropped. Sent as a string so it works from Clay. Default: "100".
- `min_award_value` (string): Drops awards below this amount in the register's own currency. Set to 0 to keep everything. Sent as a string so it works from Clay. Default: "100000".
- `register` (string, required): Which award register to read. US federal contracts and grants come from USASpending, NIH SBIR and STTR from NIH RePORTER, and the two UK registers from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender. Default: "u…
- `resolve_domains` (boolean): Looks up each winner's website. Turning it off makes the run roughly 20x faster and returns recipient_domain as null with domain_status not_attempted. Default: true.
- `window_days` (string): How many days back from today to read awards for. 1 to 90. US federal data lags about two days, so do not use a one day window on the US registers. Sent as a string so it works from Clay. Default: "7…
