Software and platforms
The public sector procures software, SaaS, and digital platform services every year through complex, requirement-dense tenders.
Alongside functional requirements, software tenders commonly address security, data protection, accessibility, integrations and exit from the service.
A software tender's requirements follow its intended use
The emphasis changes between a cloud service, a citizen-facing service and a cybersecurity solution.
Common procurement categories include:
- Case management and administrative systems
- Citizen-facing digital services and portals
- Data platforms, integration, and interfaces
- Cloud hosting and managed operations
- Licences, subscriptions, and support agreements
- Implementation, migration, and configuration projects
- Accessibility auditing and remediation
- Information security testing and monitoring
- Continuous development and maintenance capacity
SaaS and cloud services to public administration
The buyer's real question is not whether the software works, but where the data sits and who is contractually responsible for it. In the EU and EEA, GDPR Article 28 requires a written processing agreement wherever a supplier processes personal data on a public buyer's behalf.
Citizen-facing digital services
For citizen-facing services, accessibility may be a mandatory requirement. The bidder must demonstrate compliance in the form requested by the tender.
Cybersecurity products and services
A cybersecurity tender may request evidence on incident handling, reporting, staff competence and service continuity.
