How to win their contracts

Measured from Westdeutscher Rundfunk Köln'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 8 of their tenders.
• They publish about 3.6 tenders a month, measured over 5 months of history.
• Half of their 25 awarded contracts are worth €1 or less — size your bid to that range.
• Most of their buying falls in business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, security, radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment, architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services.
• Their most frequent suppliers are Convit GmbH (7), Controlware GmbH (4), Mediatec GmbH (3) — expect to bid against incumbents who already know this buyer.
