Official accredited member of Prozorro and Prozorro.Sale, the largest platform of commercial tenders by the number of open online trades every day

History and achievements

Our story began in 2013, with a small team burning with the idea of ​​creating a cloud-based solution that would simplify procurement for private companies. At the start, we had about ten people who simultaneously performed the functions of support service, sales department, and testers and assigned tasks to developers. Since we started with several dozen registered customers, at first all tenders announced on SmartTender.biz were processed "manually": we independently searched for tender participants who could supply the goods or services required by the customer. We also constantly traveled to different parts of Ukraine to present the advantages of our site and attract new procurement organizers and suppliers.

Gradually, the number of SmartTender.biz users grew and currently exceeds 110,000. With our help, Ukrainian business representatives were able to transfer their purchases online and began to spend much less time on them compared to paper tenders, and thousands of suppliers gained easy access to such purchases.

In 2015, when the Prozorro public procurement system was created, our team took an active part in its development and launch. At that time, we already had considerable experience in supporting the online platform and could offer the best solutions for implementing the procedure of transparent tenders. After the successful launch of Prozorro in 2016, SmartTender.biz became one of its official platforms.

In the same year, we were among the first to start cooperating with another electronic trading system – Prozorro.Sale. At that time, only auctions for the sale of assets of the Individual Deposit Guarantee Fund were placed in it. They were gradually joined by objects of state property and small privatization, permits for the use of the subsoil of Ukraine, and the rental of wagons. And a little later – the lease of state and communal property and land plots. With the appearance of new types of auctions on Prozorro.Sale, we immediately develop the necessary functionality.

In 2018, we went even further and created Signy – our electronic document management system. And a little later, in 2020, it was integrated with the platform so that our users could sign documents with an electronic signature right away on the SmartTender.biz page.

We are proud that the value of our work was noted by the All-Ukrainian Industry Analytical Center – in 2020, SmartTender was recognized as the company of the year for its significant contribution to the development of the region's economy, achieving leadership in the industry and excellent dynamics of the company's development.

In February 2021, our site became one of the first to receive all five possible levels of Prozorro accreditation. Thanks to this, SmartTender.biz can be used not only by procurement organizers and suppliers but also by Centralized Purchasing Organizations that carry out aggregated procurement.

We are constantly working to make the site convenient and functional for users. For example, in 2021, we radically updated the interface of the commercial organizer Smart Procurement's office, as well as launched a tool for analyzing competitors in procurement.

Today, SmartTender consists of more than 100 experienced specialists, including representatives of the following areas: support, lawyers, marketing, developers teams, and the Signy electronic document management team.
