What is CPV Code 79?

CPV Code 79 in the Common Procurement Vocabulary stands for Business Consulting & Services. Business and management consulting, legal, marketing and human resources services. This code is part of the EU's standardized classification system for public procurement, enabling consistent description of contract subjects across all member states.

Typical Products and Services

CPV Code 79 covers the following areas among others:

  • Management consulting
  • Legal advice
  • Recruitment
  • Marketing services
  • Accounting

The full CPV nomenclature includes numerous sub-groups under the main code 79, allowing for precise classification of specific goods and services. Contracting authorities typically use more detailed sub-codes to accurately describe the subject of their contracts.

Public contracting authorities at all levels use CPV Code 79 when publishing tenders:

  • Municipal administrations regularly award contracts in this area
  • Regional authorities and ministries tender larger projects
  • Federal agencies use this code for central procurement
  • EU institutions employ the code for Europe-wide procurement procedures
  • Public enterprises such as utilities also award contracts under this code

Contract volumes vary significantly - from smaller municipal procurements below EU thresholds to large-scale European projects worth tens of millions of euros.
