Finances
Our operations continued to grow in 2024. The use of joint procurement exceeded the limit of EUR 1.7 billion, which contributes to achieving savings in public administration. The Finances section of the Annual Report contains the report of Hansel’s Board of Directors.
Operations of the joint procurement unit
Hansel’s aim is to arrange tendering and maintain joint procurement contracts that bring significant benefits in the form of prices, quality and process cost savings. Hansel also offers procurement tendering and development services.

In 2024, the total value of joint procurement used was EUR 1,718 million. The use of many joint procurement procedures continued to grow strongly compared to the previous year, although the savings in public administration started to affect the operations midway through the year.

Review of events in 2024
2024 marked the start of the second year of the implementation of the Growth Strategy. The strategy is based on added value provided to customers, and the vision is to be the customers’ preferred procurement partner. The company’s mission is to boost performance through procurement that affects Finnish public administration.
Risks and the management of risks
Hansel’s operative risks involve tendering related to joint procurement and contractual management. Risks are reduced by ensuring good knowledge of procurement legislation and by following the company’s tendering process.
