Real Estate Procurement Tenders
Frequently Asked Questions — Real Estate EU Tenders
What is a Real Estate EU tender?
A Real Estate EU tender is a public procurement contract published by a government authority in one of the 27 EU member states. Above EU thresholds, these contracts must be published on TED (Tenders Electronic Daily). They cover goods, services, and works in the Real Estate sector and are open to suppliers across the EU.
How do I find Real Estate procurement opportunities in the EU?
EU Real Estate tenders are officially published on TED Europa (ted.europa.eu). TenderMetric aggregates and filters live Real Estate tenders from all 27 member states in one place, with live deadlines, contract values, and daily updates directly from TED.
Who can bid on Real Estate EU contracts?
Any company or consortium registered in an EU member state can bid on Real Estate EU tenders. Non-EU suppliers may also be eligible under certain trade agreements. Each contracting authority sets qualification criteria in the tender documents via the ESPD (European Single Procurement Document).
What are the typical contract values for Real Estate EU tenders?
Real Estate EU tenders published on TED exceed the EU procurement thresholds — typically €140,000 for central government supplies/services and €5.4 million for works contracts. Actual contract values vary widely by sector, country, and complexity.
What procurement procedures are used for Real Estate tenders?
The most common procedure for Real Estate EU tenders is the open procedure, where any qualified supplier can submit a bid. Restricted procedures, competitive dialogue, and negotiated procedures are used for more complex Real Estate contracts requiring pre-qualification.
Are Real Estate EU tenders open to companies from all member states?
Yes. EU procurement law prohibits discrimination based on nationality. Any company from any EU member state may bid on Real Estate tenders regardless of the contracting authority's country. This cross-border access is a core principle of the EU single market.
