When comparable contracts were last awarded here, usually just a single offer was on the table — a solid bid has real chances.
References and certificates from your home country count fully across the EU — that is what European procurement law is for.

What the buyer is looking for

Temporary transfer of ReadyAPI test licenses including maintenance and support As part of the IT strategy, reusable Representational State Transfer (REST) services are continuously being developed. Before they are used in production, they must always be quality assured beforehand. The software "ReadyAPI Test" is currently used as a standard tool for this process in the BA-IT system house. Currently, licenses for the "ReadyAPI Test" tool are available via a framework agreement. However, this framework contract expires on 10.12.2026. For a seamless availability of the software "ReadyAPI Test" a new framework contract "ReadyAPI_Test_2026" is necessary. 15 floating licenses "ReadyAPI Test" are currently in use. The need still exists, but only with a number of 4 licenses for one year and another optional license during the performance period. The software "ReadyAPI Test" will also be available to the BA beyond 10.12.2026 to the extent required. For more information, please refer to the terms of reference.
