Software package utilities market in Netherlands: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Netherlands awarded 25 supply contracts for software package utilities through award notices on TED; the 12 of them that state a value (48%) add up to €18.8 million, a floor rather than the full contract value.

  • Since November 2023, 41 companies have won 58 public supply contracts for software package utilities in Netherlands, in 52 award notices from 47 public buyers.
  • 93.1% of these awards went to companies registered in Netherlands; the most frequent foreign origin is United States.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Netherlands — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €242 billion in 2025, 20.7% 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.
