Coverage: the ECB publishes most of its tenders on its own e-tendering portal, not on TED (it is not bound by the EU procurement directives). This page shows only the part that reaches TED, so it understates the ECB's consulting work.

## Method and source

Arquestra Consulting Market Radar, built 2026-10-30 from TED (eForms) and national registers (France DECP/BOAMP, Spain PLACSP, Germany, Netherlands): public consulting awards from EUR 15,000 up of the last 24 months, classified by kind of work; work outside consulting left out. Spellings of the buyer's name are merged within one country and, for this page, the departments named in the note. Spending: the published value of each award other than a framework, values of EUR 150 M or more left out; frameworks are counted apart (their value is a ceiling). An award with several winners counts once for each firm.
