Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually about 4 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 169 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 41 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 20,071 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 Germany · Construction work, 687 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 244,229 recorded awards) — mostly from Austria, France, Poland.

Submission language: German.

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