How to win their contracts

Measured from Régie de l'Eau Bordeaux Métropole's own published record — no estimates, no generic advice.

• Plan for about 31 days to prepare a bid — that is the median gap between publication and deadline across 23 of their tenders.
• They publish about 2.9 tenders a month, measured over 24 months of history.
• Half of their 36 awarded contracts are worth €1.2m or less — size your bid to that range.
• Most of their buying falls in architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services, electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting.
• Their most frequent suppliers are SARP SUD-OUEST (3), FAYAT ENTREPRISE TP (2), SAFEGE (2) — expect to bid against incumbents who already know this buyer.
