Attend our public procurement training

Contracting authority, public buyer or project manager? Managing a Tender in compliance with the Swiss legal framework requires rigour, transparency and expertise. Our public procurement training gives you the tools to master these procedures, ensure fair competition and optimise your processes through an approach combining theory and practice. Four sessions are scheduled in Geneva and Lausanne—do not miss this opportunity!

Managing public procurement can quickly become challenging due to the complexity of regulations and procedures. Training helps you develop the right reflexes and ensure a transparent and effective competitive process.

Master the different procedures and their application criteria

Apply best practices to structure and analyse a Tender

This first part will give you a clear overview of the fundamentals of public procurement:

  • Applicable legislation – familiarise yourself with the legal and regulatory frameworks governing public procurement in Switzerland.
  • Types of procedures – explore the different procedures depending on threshold values: from direct award to open procedure.
  • Award criteria – learn to identify and define objective and transparent criteria for evaluating bids.
  • Stages of a Tender procedure – master each phase, from preparing the file to the final award of the contract.

Share a moment of discussion and relaxation with our specialists and the other participants over lunch (included in the training fee). A great opportunity to meet peers, share your experiences and expand your professional network.

Put the concepts covered in the morning into practice through concrete, interactive exercises, guided by our experts:
