Hi,

that's correct, the source is finances.wb.org (
https://finances.worldbank.org/Procurement/Major-Contract-Awards/kdui-wcs3?
).

We are now doing small improvements like the search by Company/Vendor and
we should include Tender Notices pretty soon too.
Let me know if you have other questions, best,
Francesco
