115 tenders, 28 in one CPV division, 79.5 million manats — Azerbaijan's next deadline cluster

AZTender's data cut of 17 October 2026 shows 115 screened open Azerbaijani tenders closing 17-22 October 2026, worth 79,463,894.43 AZN; CPV division 72 (IT services) leads with 28 tenders worth 47,875,334.82 AZN, about 60% of the total.

AZTender's data cut of 17 October 2026 (03:21:49 UTC) shows 115 screened open tenders on Azerbaijan's state procurement portal (etender.gov.az) with submission deadlines in the five days from 17 to 22 October 2026, worth an estimated 79,463,894.43 AZN (≈79.5m AZN) after this site's standing exclusion for security, defence and law-enforcement-linked buyers is applied. Grouped by the registry's two-digit CPV division code, the leading group is division 72 (IT services), with 28 tenders worth a combined 47,875,334.82 AZN (≈47.9m AZN) — about 60% of the total.

What the number is not

None of these 115 listings is an award, a signed contract or money paid: each carries only an announced ceiling value, and no winner exists because every row is still open for submission. Rows under this site's standing buyer exclusion for security, defence and law-enforcement bodies are removed before the count is taken, and those rows are out of scope for this post. The CPV-72 label is a registry classification code, not a verified sector tag for every row it covers, so the thinner divisions here should not be used for price-cohort comparisons against division 72. Deadline timestamps run on the registry clock, roughly four hours ahead of true Baku time, so these figures are a point-in-time snapshot that will not reproduce exactly on a later re-run. No bidder-count attaches to any of the 115 — Azerbaijan's open procurement data does not carry that field.

Why it is a signal

  • How many of the 115 screened tenders convert into signed contracts before their deadlines, and at what share of the published ceiling?
  • Does division 72 keep leading successive five-day windows at a similar roughly-60% share, or is this specific to this cut?
  • Why do divisions 60 and 25 each carry eight tenders at different combined values, while division 39's five tenders (7,165,965.46 AZN) outweigh both?

What AZTender shows

AZTender's tender-matching module tracks open announcements by CPV division and submission deadline, letting a bidder preparing this week's submission see all 115 screened listings grouped by division and deadline on one screen, instead of checking each etender.gov.az notice individually. The entity-report view lets a reviewer isolate one buyer's listing from the rest of its division, and the price-assessment view puts a division-72 ceiling alongside comparable recent IT-services listings. More detail is at aztender.ai.

A signal is not a verdict. A cluster of deadlines and value inside one CPV division is an ordinary feature of a public procurement register, and no conclusion about any buyer, sector or supplier is drawn here.
