Estimate order value
Estimate order value
Tender scope
Do you have to tender EU-wide or nationally? Your order value will decide this. This is because threshold values apply in this respect, which you can view at the BMWK. Is your estimated value above or below this limit?
Determine the correct award procedure
There are various forms of procurement: public, open, non-open, restricted or negotiated. Read our guide to find out which type of procedure is suitable for you.
Define service catalogue
To prepare the final tender, you also need to compile and define a catalogue of services. Think about the joint bidder declaration, interest escalation clauses, the general leasing conditions, insurance and services as well as communication and training requirements.

Your service catalogue: What should not be missing from your tender?
Bidding consortium declaration
As a rule, bicycle leasing is offered as a joint service by a service provider and a leasing company. We recommend that you request a corresponding declaration in the tender.
Interest escalation clauses
Look into interest escalation clauses with standard market specifications in order to obtain an optimised offer. Why? They regulate how the leasing factor offered can be adjusted during the term of the contract.
General leasing conditions & all contracts
In order to achieve a legally secure contractual basis, you should request the general leasing conditions as well as all necessary contracts within the tender.
Insurance and services
In order to select the best possible company bike leasing provider for your employees, we recommend that you get a comprehensive impression of the product on offer in advance. Have benefits such as insurance and service explained to you in detail.
Communication & training
If you offer company bike leasing, your employees should be fully informed and be able to obtain the necessary information at any time. It is therefore important to define your requirements for the leasing provider's support in terms of communication and training on the product in advance.
