Public Procurement Is Germany's Next Growth Engine. AI Unlocks That Revenue Opportunity.

Germany's public sector spends up to €500 billion a year on goods, services, and infrastructure. Roughly 15% of GDP. That number is about to step-change.

The new Sondervermögen Infrastruktur (SVIK) will deploy up to €500 billion into roads, rail, schools, and energy. The €100 billion defence fund is already largely committed. Add digitalization of public administration, the energy transition, and a €216 billion municipal investment backlog, and the picture is clear: Germany is entering a historic public procurement cycle.

Note: estimates based on public sector spend 2022-2025

For the Mittelstand, this is the revenue opportunity of the decade.

Private-sector demand is softening. Order books are thinning. Financing conditions remain tight. Meanwhile, government contracts offer what's increasingly rare: large-scale, reliable revenue backed by public budgets. The public sector is actively looking for suppliers in construction, IT, consulting, engineering, facility management

The problem: capturing that demand is brutal. Hundreds of portals from 30.000+ contracting authorities. Dense requirements documents. Weeks of manual work per bid. Most companies either lack the capacity to compete or leave money on the table because they can't move fast enough.

This is what Forgent solves.

Forgent's AI platform finds relevant tenders across hundreds of portals, analyzes requirements, and develops compelling proposal concepts. In hours, not weeks. Our customers experience an efficiency gain of up to 90% .

Not by replacing human expertise. By removing the repetitive work that buries it.

The result: companies bid more, bid better, and win contracts they would have missed entirely.
