Engineering services market in Romania: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Romania awarded 204 supply contracts for engineering services through award notices on TED; the 165 of them that state a value (80.9%) add up to €152 million.

  • Since November 2023, 185 companies have won 432 public supply contracts for engineering services in Romania, in 134 award notices from 77 public buyers.
  • 95.8% of these awards went to companies registered in Romania; the most frequent foreign origin is Türkiye.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 31.9% of all awards.
  • 44.7% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Romania — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €47.7 billion in 2025, 12.5% 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.

Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
