Tax Consulting — Public Procurement
Tax consulting for the public sector covers advice to municipalities, state-owned enterprises and public undertakings on tax matters. With the introduction of § 2b UStG (German VAT Act) and the increasing commercial activity of municipalities, demand for advice is growing in areas such as VAT, corporate income tax, trade tax and tax-driven restructuring.

- Framework agreement for tax advice to a municipal group
- Preparation of tax returns for municipal enterprises

Challenges in tender discovery
Tax consulting is tendered under terms such as "tax advisory", "tax advisory services", "fiscal advice" or "§ 2b advice". The area of specialisation (VAT, income tax, charitable status law) is often only apparent from the tender documents.
Many tax advisory mandates are awarded as professional services and are therefore subject to simplified procurement rules. Visibility of available mandates is correspondingly limited.
