Details

Germany does not have a unified set of public procurement regulations for tenders that fall below the EU thresholds. As a result, the publication and monitoring is decentralised at the federal state level and different local procurement portals exist. Bund.de is the main access point to the electronic information and administrative services of the German public administration and contains tenders from the federal, state and local governments as well as of vacancies in the public administration.

Reviewer comments

While the data is far from complete, it is open and available. Updated the entry to that regard.
