Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually 7 or more bids came in. Many compete here — price and references decide. (Based on 160 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 15 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 32 (median of 20,496 procedures). Much tighter than usual: the first week counts.

Foreign bidders

In Germany · IT services, 597 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 22,964 recorded awards) — mostly from Switzerland, Netherlands, Austria.

Submission language: German.

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