Public procurement: everything you need to know to work with the Administration

[Aklima@4]

Finding new opportunities to expand your business is one of the main challenges facing any SME. Being open to change and innovation, making a good business plan, applying for loans and/or retaining your current customers are some of the tips you can follow. But what about preparing to win a public tender? In this sense, the tenders called by the Public Administration are an important way for small and medium-sized companies to increase their activity.

When choosing a public tender, it will be necessary to carefully analyse the conditions, types of contracts, the tendering process, advantages and disadvantages and other relevant aspects. To advise you on this, Novicap , in collaboration with Sage, has prepared the guide “Public Contracting. Everything you need to know before starting to contract with the Public Administration”. Content that briefly, completely and simply addresses everything you need to know to work with the Public Administration.

An important feature is that, since the Public Administration handles different sectors, one can filter the offers by type of contract, depending on the specialization of the company or the nature of the contract one is looking for. The most common types of public contracts are divided into:

Special administrative
Works Contract
Public works concession
Public services management
Private
Public-private collaboration
Services
Supplies
If your company specializes in any of these hotels and motels email list services (explained in detail in this guide ), the next step you should take is to familiarize yourself with the platform and understand how the bidding process works:

Navigating the Public Sector Contracting Platform
Before starting to search for tenders on the state contracting website, we recommend that every company ensure that it meets the conditions and requirements to be contracted by the Public Administration, as indicated in the guide .

On the Public Sector Contracting platform we can find different pages that provide help to search for tenders, register, use the services that facilitate the execution of the contract, etc. The key pages are:



Tenders : the latest tenders that have been uploaded or modified are published here in real time, sorted by date.
Search for Tenders : The search page is divided into two, the guided search, in which tenders are searched by criteria and by setting filters and the search form
On the recruiter profile page , the company can search what type of recruiter they are looking for, where they are located and what activity they perform.
