opportunities

search_opportunities

Search active federal construction and renovation contract opportunities from SAM.gov. Filter by US state, NAICS code, keyword, or contract value tier. Returns up to 50 results ordered by most recently published. This is a per-query search, not a bulk export.

opportunity

get_opportunity

Get details for a specific federal opportunity by its SAM.gov notice ID: scope summary, deadline, location, agency, NAICS, set-aside, and value. Incumbent contractor, past-offer counts, contract ceiling, and win-probability scoring require a RenovationRoute account.

states

list_states

List the US states with the most active federal construction opportunities on RenovationRoute, ranked by volume, with the count per state. Returns the top states, not an exhaustive list of all 50.

stats

get_stats

Get a real-time snapshot of active federal construction opportunities tracked by RenovationRoute. Returns total count, top states by volume, and breakdown by contract value tier.

Federal Opportunities — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Federal Opportunities do?

It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_opportunity, get_stats, list_states, search_opportunities. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Federal Opportunities working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 69 of 69 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 490 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Federal Opportunities?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Federal Opportunities need an API key?

No. Federal Opportunities completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Federal Opportunities?

It answers our handshake in 490 ms on average, which is faster than 32% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
