IT Consulting — Public Tenders
IT consulting is a central component of the digitalisation of public administrations and institutions. Public clients regularly award consulting contracts for strategy development, technology selection, and project management — both in classical IT contexts and as part of comprehensive management consulting projects. Framework agreements are used alongside project-specific single awards.

- Strategic IT consulting on the digitalisation of a state administration
- Framework agreement for IT project management and quality assurance
- Consulting services for the introduction of a new ERP system

Challenges in finding tenders
IT consulting is awarded under a wide variety of labels in public tenders — from "IT consulting" and "digital transformation strategy consulting" through to "technical support services". In addition, IT consulting is often a sub-element of larger procurement procedures, such as software rollouts or infrastructure projects, and is therefore not always recognisable as a standalone lot.
The boundary with classical management consulting is blurred in many tenders. The same service may be classified under either IT or management consulting. A comprehensive search must therefore cover both areas to avoid missing relevant procedures.
