When a government agency wants to have a contract fulfilled, it announces a call for tenders. In the Netherlands, you will find these announcements on TenderNed. Here you can submit your offer for a specific project. Please be aware of the various steps you have to take before you can submit an offer. For more information, you can also read the Tenderned six steps to bidding public procurement contracts or contact TenderNed (in Dutch).
