What Germany Gesetz gegen Wettbewerbsbeschränkungen (GWB) Part 4 - Public Procurement (§§97-184) requires
Part 4 (Teil 4) of the Gesetz gegen Wettbewerbsbeschränkungen (GWB) establishes the legal framework for award of public contracts (Vergabe öffentlicher Aufträge) above EU thresholds in Germany, transposing the EU public procurement directives. Sections 97-114 set out the principles and scope, including §97 (Grundsätze der Vergabe — principles of competition, transparency, equal treatment, proportionality and economy), §§98-105 (definitions of öffentliche Auftraggeber and types of contracts), §106 (thresholds), and §§110-112 (mixed procurement). Sections 115-135 cover award of public contracts, with §119 prescribing the procedure types (offenes Verfahren, nichtoffenes Verfahren, Verhandlungsverfahren, wettbewerblicher Dialog and Innovationspartnerschaft), §122 setting qualification requirements, §123 listing mandatory exclusion grounds and §124 listing discretionary exclusion grounds. Sections 136-154 contain sector-specific rules for utilities (Sektorenauftraggeber), defence and security (§§144-147) and concessions (§§148-154). Sections 155-184 establish the Nachprüfungsverfahren (review procedures), centred on the Vergabekammern (procurement review chambers) under §156 with immediate appeal to the higher regional courts under §§171-182.
