Garan Territoires, procurement

A bidder who reads the specification.

We answer adapted and formal procedures for websites, online services, hosting and maintenance. Our administrative file is ready, so a short deadline is not a reason for us to skip your procedure.

Procedures

However you choose to buy.

Adapted procedures

The most common route for a commune website. We respond to adapted procedures at any size, including short deadlines, because our administrative file is kept current.

Formal procedures

Open and restricted procedures for larger platforms or multi-site estates, including bids submitted as part of a grouping.

Framework agreements

Multi-year framework agreements with purchase orders, for authorities who prefer to commission work in increments over the mandate.

Direct award

Below the applicable threshold, a simple quotation is enough. We provide a priced proposal in the same structure, so it stands up to a later audit.

How it goes

From your notice to the first workshop.

01

You publish, we see it

We monitor the national notice service and the main buyer profile platforms for website, online services, hosting and maintenance procedures. You can also send the notice to us directly.

02

We qualify in 48 hours

We read the specification and tell you quickly whether we are the right fit. If we are not, we say so rather than filing a bid that wastes your evaluation time.

03

We ask the useful questions

During the question period we ask what genuinely changes the proposal: existing content volume, integrations, accessibility target, who maintains the site afterwards.

04

We file a complete bid

Technical memorandum, administrative documents, priced schedule and commitments, submitted on your platform in the required format, before the deadline.

05

We present in person

If your procedure includes a presentation or negotiation, the people who would actually run your project come, not a sales team that hands over afterwards.

06

We start on the agreed date

Once notified, the framing phase starts on the date in the schedule. Your named project manager is the person you met during the procedure.

The bid file

What lands on your desk.

Complete, in the order your specification asks for, with the price schedule split so you can compare our bid against the others line by line. No annexes that answer a different question, no pricing that hides the maintenance cost in year two.

Technical proposal

A full technical memorandum answering the specification point by point, with methodology, planning and team.

Company documents

European Single Procurement Document, company registration, tax and social security clearance certificates.

Insurance

Professional indemnity and civil liability certificates, current for the contract period.

Priced schedule

Completed price schedule, split between build, hosting, maintenance and optional items, so you can compare like for like.

References

Comparable projects, public or private, with scope, budget bracket and a contactable reference where the client allows it.

Commitments

Written accessibility, security, data location and reversibility commitments, contractual rather than declarative.

For the evaluation grid

Why shortlist us.

Stated plainly, so you can weigh them against the other bids rather than decode marketing language.

One supplier for the whole chain

Design, development, hosting and security are all in-house. No subcontracting chain to arbitrate when something breaks, and one contact who owns the outcome.

Sovereign hosting, contractually

We operate our own infrastructure division. Data location, jurisdiction and reversibility are written into the contract, not promised in a slide.

Accessibility treated as an obligation

RGAA 4.1 conformity, the accessibility statement and the multi-year plan are part of the delivery, at no extra cost and with an audit to prove it.

No lock-in

You own the source code, the content and the data. Reversibility is planned from day one, including if you leave us at the end of the contract.

A team that answers

A named project manager and a direct line to the people who built your site, not a ticket queue and a first level script.

Built for the mandate, not the demo

Maintenance, security patching and evolutions are budgeted from the start, so the site is still current at the end of the contract.

Before you publish

Writing the specification.

A weak specification produces bids you cannot compare. Whether or not you end up working with us, these four clauses will save you trouble later.

Name the accessibility target

Ask for RGAA 4.1 conformity, an audit before go-live and the accessibility statement as a deliverable. Otherwise you will receive bids that price none of it, and they will look cheaper.

Ask where the data sits, and who operates it

Location alone is not enough. Ask for the operator's jurisdiction and its parent company, otherwise an EU datacenter can still sit inside a foreign legal perimeter.

Require a reversibility clause

Source code, database, media and documentation, in open formats, on request and at the end of the contract. This single clause is what protects your next procurement.

Price the whole contract, not the build

Ask for hosting, maintenance, security patching and support priced per year over the full term. A cheap build followed by expensive maintenance is the oldest trick in the sector.

Send us the file.

A published notice, a draft specification, or just the intention to launch a procedure. We will tell you honestly whether we are the right supplier for it.
