The public sector remains a prominent force in business as well as a primary source of orders across various industries.

While the stakes in public procured services and products can be high, procurement processes can be overly formal and require a substantial time investment from a bidder. The COVID-19 pandemic does not seem to have affected the infrastructure development pipeline, and the Czech government announced that it remains committed to investing in infrastructure.
