AI intelligence for Moldova's public procurement

Two MCP servers make Moldova's official public-procurement data accessible to AI agents and investigative journalists: ANSC appeals and decisions, plus MTender tenders and contracts in OCDS 1.1.5 format. Both extract PDFs, expose curated prompts (supplier audit, single-bid investigation), and run with one npx command.

Why this matters

Moldova's public-procurement data is officially open — but scattered across two systems with UIs that are heavy to navigate by hand. ANSC publishes appeals, decisions, hearings, and suspension orders; MTender publishes tenders, contracts, plans, and budgets in OCDS 1.1.5 format (Open Contracting Data Standard). For someone who wants answers to real questions (who wins single-bid? which supplier has the most appeals? how many direct awards crossed the threshold this year?), the UI isn't enough.

These two MCP servers close the loop. ansc-mcp-server exposes 12 tools plus 3 curated prompts (decision summary, supplier audit, appeals comparison) and extracts PDFs with vision-OCR fallback. mtender-mcp-server exposes 17 tools plus 8 prompts (supplier audit, single-bid investigation, pipeline overview), aggregates by buyer or supplier, and flags red flags such as single-bid awards.

Typical use: investigative journalists running fast supplier audits; compliance officers monitoring new tenders by category; civic NGOs tracking aggregate statistics; analysts building private dashboards. Every scenario runs through Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client — your data stays yours, never sent anywhere outside your local flow.

How to start

  1. 01
    Install a server: npx -y mcp-ansc-server for appeals/decisions, or npx -y mtender-mcp-server for tenders/contracts.
  2. 02
    Wire an MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Zed, VS Code) — the exact snippets are on each project's install page.
  3. 03
    Start with a curated prompt: for ANSC try “summarize decisions from the past week”, for MTender try “audit supplier X over the last 12 months”.
  4. 04
    Validate results against the source URLs every tool returns — both servers keep the official document links from ansc.md and mtender.gov.md.

The data stays public and open. These two servers just make it accessible programmatically and to AI agents. No proxy, no external cache — every call goes straight to the official source.
