The contract value indicated under II.1.7) and V.2.4) is incorrect and is based solely on the fact that the form requires one entry in each case. Pursuant to Section 39 (6) Nos. 2 to 4 VgV, the contracting authority is not obliged to publish individual details if their publication would be contrary to the public interest, prejudicial to the legitimate commercial interests of an enterprise or prejudicial to fair competition between undertakings. The total value of the procurement and the value of the contracts awarded are not communicated because this would harm the legitimate commercial interests of the respective contractor. In addition, publication of the procurement or contract value would be contrary to the public interest and impair fair competition between companies in future award procedures, as conclusions about the contents of tenders and competition would be possible from such information.
