Tactics

When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually only one or two bids came in. A solid bid has a real chance here. (Based on 464 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 49 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 34 (median of 3,181 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.

The deadline falls on a Monday — your last full working day is the Friday before. Have evidence and guarantees together by Thursday.

Foreign bidders

In Belgium · Laboratory & optical equipment, 316 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 772 recorded awards) — mostly from Germany, France, Netherlands.

Submission language: French.

Measured from linked award data; foreign winners bidding through a local subsidiary count as domestic — the true share is higher.
