In proportion
All public purchasing in Lithuania — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €9.55 billion in 2025, 11.2% of GDP (Eurostat). Award notices on TED cover only the contracts above the EU thresholds, so they show who wins, not the whole of that spending.
General government spending on goods, services and investment for health in Lithuania came to €2.42 billion in 2024 (Eurostat, COFOG). How much of it reaches suppliers through tenders depends on how the country organises the sector — for example whether statutory health insurance is classified in government.
