Procurement Insights Desk

Every company bids under a hundred names.
We resolve them to one.

Name a target. We resolve its full public-sector footprint from 52 million open contract records — every name-spelling variant collapsed into one legal identity — then surface the buyers, the concentration, and the competitor map a vendor deck never shows. On request, from a real desk.

How the desk works

Not a database login. A brief, answered by people.

AqlData isn't a self-serve data dump — anyone can pull a CSV of contract IDs. The value is the resolution and the read on top of it: the analyst-weeks a deal team doesn't have before a deadline.

What you get

A resolved picture — not a raw list.

01 / One identity

We collapse name-variant chaos into a single legal identity, then roll up subsidiaries into one group footprint across borders.

“Thales” → 985 spellings · “Magirus” → 235 → 1

02 / Footprint & buyers

Every public buyer the target sells to, its country reach and award history — the dependency a glossy CIM smooths over.

buyers · single-buyer share · award-size distribution

03 / Competitor map

Who else bids for the same lots, at the contract level — plus a cross-border sanctions overlay flagging third-party exposure.

FILE 02 — STATE CAPITAL36→4
Thirty-six names, four owners
36 differently-named Chinese firms across five African countries resolve to four SASAC state holdings — ~$1.56B in awards, invisible to single-country analysis. CRBC held 27% of Rwanda's roads agency for eight years.

FILE 03 — SANCTIONS128 awards
Winning contracts after designation
How sanctions-linked entity groups kept winning EU/UK public contracts after designation — a third-party-exposure gap conventional screening misses. 128 post-designation awards traced to the Lukoil group across five countries.
