HHV-Bau: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

HHV-Bau is software from Dittrich Software GmbH of Ottobrunn near Munich for budget execution in public construction projects. According to the vendor, it is the standard software for state and federal building authorities. It records, manages and controls public construction measures, from funds management and planning through tendering and award to invoice processing, cost control and budget monitoring. Modules include master data, budget, cost control, award, invoice processing and information management. It has interfaces to treasury systems and e-procurement, and a separate product, HHV-BeWi, supports the management of public-sector properties.

Dittrich Software GmbH is based in Germany, and its website names no parent company. The vendor does not say whether the software is installed on the customer's own systems or run as a service, nor where data is stored. Ask for this, especially for public-sector data. Because the company is based in Germany it falls under EU data-protection law, and no foreign owner is named.

HHV-Bau is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.
