Case Study: City of Helsinki saves over €3 million with Cloudia Sourcing

Apartment block renovation contract saved over three million euros

The Urban Environment Division of the City of Helsinki faced the challenge of procuring a contractor for a major apartment block renovation. Their primary goal was to ensure high quality work on the over 140-home project while managing a cost estimate that exceeded 19 million euros. To achieve this, they utilized Cloudia Sourcing to help them qualify experienced contractors and guarantee a rigorous selection process.

By using Cloudia Sourcing to manage the EU open procurement procedure, the City of Helsinki clarified detailed warranty requirements for bidders and ran a highly competitive tender. The solution implemented by Cloudia resulted in a contracted value of less than 16 million euros. This created direct and substantial savings of over three million euros from the original estimate for the city.
