Procurement management

Procurement management aims to organise and carry out the procurement of goods and the commissioning of services for a public sector institution.  

Procurement projects in the public sector are subject to a whole range of formal and legal provisions. Public contracting authorities are obliged to consistently adhere to the principles of competition, equal treatment and transparency. The digitalisation and optimisation of public administration often requires complex procurement projects through which modern systems and external services are (or should be) acquired. These projects tie up additional human resources both within the contracting authorities and in the relevant specialist departments, which can often lead to overloads and impair efficiency in other areas. 

With our ‘Procurement Management’ consulting and service offering, we take a holistic approach. We advise and support you with a high level of understanding of the framework conditions and the performance of the supplier market in all processes from determining requirements to awarding the contract. In this way, we relieve the pressure on your scarce resources and manage award procedures in line with the client's interests.  

As part of preliminary projects, we work together with your contracting authority and the specialist departments involved to develop the subject of the procurement, the objective of the tender, your requirements in terms of quality and budget as well as the tender documents. Thanks to our extensive service portfolio, we can also offer you sound advice on the content of your procurement project. This expertise is used in all areas - from analysing the current situation and considering cost-effectiveness to defining requirements and needs. The knowledge gained flows into further documentation, such as a target concept, a specification sheet and other tender documents. In the process, we ensure the deliverability and feasibility of the project on the market for you as part of market research. On this basis, we then plan your tendering procedure and all the necessary tender documents. After publication, we continue to accompany and support you, whether in answering bidder questions, conducting negotiations or evaluating offers. You can count on us.

News from the public sector

Review

From 18 to 19 March 2025, more than 3,000 experts from administration, business and science came together in Berlin to discuss innovative solutions for the digitalization of administration under the motto “Digital administration goes on air”.

Interview

Digital twins create virtual representations of real systems - such as cities or industrial plants - in order to evaluate data in real time and carry out simulations. In the public sector, it is used to optimize urban processes, such as traffic planning or environmental monitoring, and thus improve the quality of life.

Consider the scenario of a panel discussion or a question-and-answer session featuring a group of experts in the relevant field. While these participants possess significant knowledge, they may also exhibit a degree of bias due to their established perspectives. Introducing an artificial intelligence (AI) as one of the participants could provide a refreshing dynamic.

Interview

Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) serves as key for optimizing of IT infrastructures through transparency, strategic planning and efficient communication. The central tasks of EAM are the collection, documentation and planning of the IT landscape to ensure an efficient and sustainable IT architecture.
