In comparable contracts in this sector nationwide (5,574 with a known bid count), usually only 2 offers came in — 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.

Tactics

When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually only one or two bids came in. A solid bid has a real chance here. (Based on 5,574 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 55 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.

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 · Electrical machinery, 225 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 5,970 recorded awards) — mostly from Italy, Austria, Netherlands.

Submission language: German.

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