Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually about 3 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 7 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 41 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 30 (median of 352 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.

Foreign bidders

In Croatia · Transport equipment, 38 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 1,287 recorded awards) — mostly from Poland, Germany, Denmark.

Submission language: Croatian.

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