Action

Get Prime Contract Awards

Tool to retrieve prime contract awards. Use when you need a paginated list of prime contract awards optionally filtered by last modified date or saved search ID.

Why this helps

Award research is easy to postpone when the details are scattered across conversations and procurement tools.

  • Turn a lead into an award research starting point.
  • Review prime award activity relevant to a buyer or market.
  • Keep market research attached to the original conversation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Highergov to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one plain-language instruction asking Notis to retrieve relevant Highergov prime contract awards when you send a lead or market question.
  • 4Choose Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real buyer or market you want to understand.
