## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

## MCP tools (3)

### `simap_search` (~532 tokens)

Search Swiss public procurement notices on simap.ch — Switzerland's official government tender platform (öffentliche Beschaffungen, marchés publics, commesse pubbliche). PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for Swiss government tenders, RFPs, award decisions, and WTO/GPA notices; Switzerland is non-EU so its tenders live on simap rather than TED. Filter by free-text search, CPV codes, Swiss canton (ZH, BE, VD, GE, TI, ...), process type (open/selective/...), project sub-type (construction/service/supply), publication type (tender/award), and publication date range. Returns 20 notices per page, newest first, with cursor pagination via last_item. Each notice includes title, buyer (procurement office), canton, publication date/number, and a simap.ch URL. Prices in awards are CHF.

Input parameters:

- `cantons` (string): Swiss canton code(s) of the order address, comma-separated, e.g. "ZH", "BE", "VD", "GE", "TI", "VD,GE".
- `cpv_codes` (string): CPV procurement classification code(s), comma-separated, e.g. "45000000" (construction works) or "72000000" (IT services).
- `lang` (string): Language for titles and labels: "de" (default), "fr", "it", or "en". Falls back de→fr→it→en when a notice lacks that language.
- `last_item` (string): Pagination cursor. Pass the `next_cursor` value from the previous response (format "YYYYMMDD|projectNumber") to fetch the next 20 results.
- `process_types` (string): Procedure type(s), comma-separated. Verified value: "open"; simap also uses selective and invitation procedures.
- `project_sub_types` (string): Project sub-type(s), comma-separated: "construction", "service", "supply".
- `pub_types` (string): Publication type(s), comma-separated: "tender" for open calls, "award" for award decisions.
- `published_from` (string): Earliest publication date, YYYY-MM-DD. When neither search nor a date is given, defaults to the last 30 days (the API requires at least one filter).
- `published_until` (string): Latest publication date, YYYY-MM-DD.
- `search` (string): Free-text search over notices, e.g. "Software", "Brücke", "photovoltaïque". Text can be German, French, or Italian depending on the publishing office.

### `simap_recent` (~219 tokens)

List the most recent Swiss public procurement notices from simap.ch (government tenders and award decisions across Switzerland — federal, cantonal, municipal). Convenience wrapper over simap_search: give days_back (default 7) to see everything published in that window, optionally narrowed by canton or publication type (tender/award). Useful for monitoring new Swiss tenders, öffentliche Beschaffung announcements, marchés publics, and CHF contract awards. Newest first, 20 per page with cursor pagination.

Input parameters:

- `cantons` (string): Swiss canton code(s), comma-separated, e.g. "ZH", "VD,GE".
- `days_back` (number|string): How many days back to look (1–90). Default 7.
- `lang` (string): Language: "de" (default), "fr", "it", or "en".
- `last_item` (string): Pagination cursor (`next_cursor` from the previous response).
- `pub_types` (string): Publication type(s), comma-separated: "tender", "award".

### `simap_project` (~189 tokens)

Fetch the full detail of one Swiss public procurement publication from simap.ch by project_id + publication_id (both UUIDs returned by simap_search / simap_recent). Returns the shaped notice: title, description, CPV classification, procedure and order type, procurement office with full address/email/phone, and for award publications the winning vendor(s) with CHF price, number of submitted offers, and award justification.

Input parameters:

- `lang` (string): Language: "de" (default), "fr", "it", or "en".
- `project_id` (string, required): Project UUID, e.g. "feca42bc-5ef4-492f-88c6-e6622940026c".
- `publication_id` (string, required): Publication UUID, e.g. "3d50c790-644c-4aa1-9fd2-ac7207bdcdcd".

## Common questions

### What is the Simap MCP server?

Simap is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/simap. simap MCP, Swiss public procurement tenders and awards (keyless). This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-simap).

### Is the Simap MCP server safe to use?

Simap scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Simap MCP server expose?

Simap exposes 3 tools: simap_search, simap_recent, simap_project. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 940 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Simap MCP server still maintained?

Simap is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Simap MCP server under?

Simap declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
