aumass eVergabe is a German platform for electronic public tendering. Contracting authorities run their procedures digitally: publishing contract notices, providing tender documents online, communicating with bidders, receiving electronic bids and keeping a digital procurement file. According to the vendor, all procedure types under VgV, SektVO, UVgO, VOB and KonzVgV are supported, including design contests. Bidders can search tenders and submit bids electronically, which the vendor says is free of charge. On request, a service team runs procedures on behalf of the authority. The platform is delivered as a web service.
The provider, aumass GmbH & Co. KG, is based in Regensburg, Germany; no foreign parent company is named. According to the vendor, all data is hosted exclusively in German data centres and stored encrypted. For European public bodies and companies this means tender data stays within the EU under German and European law. Ask about the contractual terms for processing and sub-processors.
