Procurement unit of Finnish government selects Cloudia as supplier of procurement lifecycle services with €10 million offer

The decision confirms Cloudia’s status as the market leader in providing digital procurement and contract management solutions.
Cloudia has been selected as the supplier of procurement lifecycle services for Hansel during 2019-2025 (2028) after a successful competitive bidding process. With a comparison value in the single supplier framework agreement that exceeded 10 million euros, Cloudia was selected as the supplier for the second time in a row.

Hansel Ltd put out the tender for procurement lifecycle services during the summer of 2019. The groundwork for the process was performed in cooperation with the customers of KL-Kuntahankinnat Ltd and is based on their specific needs. As a result of the corporate merger between Hansel Ltd and KL-Kuntahankinnat Ltd, the procurement process will be seen through by Hansel Ltd.

”Our customers were delighted with the news that Hansel renewed the agreement with Cloudia. Feedback from our customers suggests that Cloudia was their number one choice as the service provider, and we have already received a wealth of congratulations from many of them,” notes Are Saarinen, the CEO of Cloudia.

The aim of the procurement system is not only to provide a solution for the publication of calls for tender or tender notices that comply with the Public Procurement Act, but to also develop processes and working methods with contracting entities.
