Where GovSpend Meets Your Tech Stack

Your team doesn’t work in just one system and your data shouldn’t either. With GovSpend’s integrations, you can bring key data directly into the tools you already use, helping your team take action faster, stay aligned, and keep workflows moving without changing how they work.

 

Here's what's improved:

  • CRM Integration: Sync GovSpend data directly into Salesforce or HubSpot to keep your pipeline accurate and up to date.

  • Coming in June! Native Slack App: Access data, get alerts, and take action—right where your team communicates.

  • API Access: Integrate GovSpend data into your systems to power automation, reporting, and applications.

  • MCP Server: Connect GovSpend to your internal tools, copilots, and workflows for flexible, custom use.

Meet Your New Federal Power Tools

design-256x256-1581656

On April 17th, we introduced two new ways of engaging with federal award data - Contract Search and Spending Analytics - to deliver clearer visibility and more precise insights into federal contracting data. With enhanced search across FPDS and SAM.gov, streamlined contract snapshots, and powerful analytics for market mapping and transaction-level filtering, you can uncover and act on opportunities with greater confidence.

 

Here's what's improved:

  • More potential opportunities: Search across FPDS + SAM.gov for broader opportunity discovery

  • Deeper visibility: View every contract modification as its own transaction

  • Richer insights: Access solicitation context and built-in analytics

  • Smarter tools: Use Spending Analytics for trends & dashboards, or Contracts Search for research

Bottom line: More visibility, more context, and better results—without extra work on your end.

The Transition from FPDS to SAM.gov
The federal government officially decommissioned FPDS.gov on February 24, but this change has zero impact on the data or service you receive from us. While contract award searches have moved to SAM.gov, the underlying data remains the same trusted source. No action is required on your end.
