EVB-IT contracts
The EVB-IT system for the successful management of all IT contracts
The Supplementary Contract Terms for the Procurement of IT Services (EVB-IT) provide a structured basis in public administration for the effective and transparent drafting of contracts in the area of IT procurement.
