Tactics
When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually about 3 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 1,800 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 22 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 20,496 procedures). Much tighter than usual: the first week counts.
Foreign bidders
In Germany · Mining & construction machinery, 15 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 1,887 recorded awards).
Measured from linked award data; foreign winners bidding through a local subsidiary count as domestic — the true share is higher.
