Alstom, the losing bidder, cited the Berlin Regional Court's March 2024 ruling that found key aspects of the tendering process to be unlawful. The court noted several breaches of procurement law, although Alstom did not raise these objections in time.

What role did management decisions and external factors play in Stadler's current economic difficulties?

Stadler's crisis stems from a combination of external factors (supply chain disruptions, rising costs) and internal issues (optimistic cost calculations). The company's request for employee concessions, including salary cuts and longer working hours, has led to conflict with the IG Metall union. The Berlin Senate, which previously granted Stadler funding, was reportedly unaware of the severity of the situation.
