What PSIP is
PSIP (psip.co.uk) describes itself as UK public sector contract intelligence. According to its website, it aggregates tenders from all five UK national procurement portals: Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI. It is aimed at suppliers bidding for UK public sector work, with solution pages for IT and cybersecurity, facilities management, professional services, construction, NHS and healthcare, and bid consultancies.
What PSIP does well
PSIP is a capable product with a clear focus on UK national-portal data. From its own site, its strengths include:
- AI relevance scoring. Tenders are scored from 1 to 10 against your business profile, with explanations.
- Contract expiry tracking. It identifies contracts expiring within 12 months.
- Buyer and incumbent intelligence. It offers historic buyer spend and incumbent supplier data, with incumbent tracking from the Growth plan.
- Competitor tracking. It lets you monitor competitor contract wins.
- Delivery and integrations. Email on every plan, Slack and Teams from Growth, and CRM connections (Salesforce, HubSpot, Zapier, Make) on Professional.
- Agency options. A Bid Agency plan offers multiple client workspaces, and an Enterprise plan adds white-label branding.
It also offers a 14-day free trial on its Growth plan with no card required, and monthly billing with no long-term contracts.
How TenderSignal approaches the same job
Coverage beyond the national portals. TenderSignal covers the UK (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) and the Republic of Ireland. We include the national portals, with eTenders in Ireland alongside the UK ones, and then check 600+ buyer portals directly: councils, NHS bodies, housing associations, universities, utilities and more, on platforms such as In-Tend, Delta eSourcing, ProContract, Atamis and Jaggaer. Around one in four live tenders we carry is not on any national portal, so a feed built only from the national portals may not show them.
Buyer contacts on Pro at £39 a month + VAT. Pro gives you the buyer contact name, email and phone, every match delivered daily, unlimited saved searches, matches not on the national portals, and renewals coming up in your sectors. The AI relevance score and its reasoning are included. Pro is £39 a month + VAT, billed monthly, cancel any time, or £390 a year + VAT.
A free plan, with no card. Free (Discover) lets you browse and discover: browse every live tender, search, filter and sort, use award history and competitor profiles, and keep one saved search with its matches in your account, with a weekly email of how many new tenders it found.
Teams can move to Business at £99 a month + VAT for up to 20 seats, adding shared notes on tenders, competitor intelligence, CSV export, and expiring contracts in every sector with go-live alerts. Registered charities receive 30% off. VAT is added at checkout.

Who each product suits
PSIP suits suppliers and bid consultancies whose work is mostly on the UK national portals and who want AI scoring, incumbent tracking and CRM or Slack connections in one platform, with agency and white-label options if they bid for clients.
TenderSignal suits businesses that sell to councils, housing associations, universities, NHS bodies and utilities, where many opportunities sit on the buyer's own portal, and businesses that also work in Ireland. It also suits anyone who wants a free plan to search with, no card, and a Pro price of £39 a month + VAT that includes buyer contacts.
Because PSIP offers a trial rather than a free plan, a practical way to compare is to run its trial alongside a free TenderSignal account, searching on the free plan for a few weeks, and see which tenders each surfaces for your sector.
