The planned law for faster procurement in the Bundeswehr is to be passed on 16.

Cabinet wants to accelerate Bundeswehr procurement on 16 July
July and bundle numerous measures for this purpose.
"The second acceleration law will shorten the legal process," Annette Lehnigk-Emden, President of the Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw), whose proposals were incorporated into the draft law, told the "Tagesspiegel" newspaper.
"If it is judged in the first instance that our procurement procedure was fair, it will no longer have a suspensive effect in the future if the losing manufacturer goes to the second instance." Furthermore, she stated that simpler and faster procurement rules should apply to all "Bundeswehr requirements" and not just to "military equipment" as before, since "civilian goods are also being purchased, which are subject to stricter procurement criteria."
In the future, even smaller expenditures would no longer have to be specifically budgeted before the Bundeswehr Procurement Office could approach companies: "This restriction will no longer apply in the future." Lehnigk-Emden pointed out that even with the measures taken so far—an initial law, decrees from the ministry, and the halving of internal regulations from 160 to 80—"procurement procedures are now up to 30 percent shorter."
According to the office, a total of 12,142 new purchase contracts with a total volume of 36.7 billion euros were concluded last year - an average of 33 per day.
