Tactics

When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually about 3 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 2,996 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 49 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 1,471 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 Finland · IT services, 51 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 4,856 recorded awards) — mostly from France, United States, Germany.

Submission language: Finnish.

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