The aim of the project is to analyse mobility chains in rural areas by means of method triangulation and, in particular, to examine the role of rail passenger transport (SPV). One focus is on the comparison and linking of objective traffic data with subjective information on the use and perception of the different means of transport. In addition to collecting and collecting data in selected focus regions, complementary, experimental studies serve to make causal statements about the effectiveness of measures to promote the benefits of sustainable mobility chains in rural areas. · The project aims to analyse mobility chains in rural areas by means of method triangulation and in particular to examine the role of rail passenger transport (SPV).

Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually about 3 bids came in. A normal field for this market. (Based on 270 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 101 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 20,496 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.

Foreign bidders

In Germany · R&D services, 161 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 4,002 recorded awards) — mostly from Netherlands, Italy, Spain.

Submission language: German.

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