zuschlagr
This page describes a product we are currently validating with selected awarding authorities. It is not a live product on sale. No demo, no licence, no pricing — a structured pilot conversation instead.
The problem
Evaluating construction bids and writing the Vergabevermerk are two separate manual workstreams for German public-sector awarding authorities today. Formal compliance, suitability, soundness, award criteria: every assessment must be documented to VOB/A, every decision justified.
Our approach — in validation
What zuschlagr is meant to do, stated honestly from the current state of validation:
zuschlagr turns evaluation and Vergabevermerk into a single artefact. The assistant proposes structured assessments along the VOB/A evaluation stages — every proposal is reviewed, every rationale flows directly into the Vergabevermerk. The award decision rests with the awarding authority.
The award decision rests with the awarding authority.
The pilot partners we are looking for
We are looking for a small number of pilot partners, not a marketing wave. Public-sector construction awarding authorities that procure regularly and can invest a short pilot period together with us. The format: a first conversation, a clear pilot scope, mutual commitment.
