## About this market
Public administration is where Spain's longest institutional memories sit. The Instituto de Ingeniería del Conocimiento has sold machine learning, language technology and predictive analytics from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid since 1989, which makes it a research institute operating commercially rather than a consultancy with a research page attached. Knowmad Mood has traded since 1994 and runs its AI, IoT and data practice at over a thousand staff, naming public-sector work beside banking and telecom. Sngular is the other group-scale option, a Madrid digital engineering business whose published work spans AI, data platforms and MLOps for public-sector as well as commercial clients. Performanze is the small end, a Madrid consultancy building custom software, data models and agents for public bodies as well as B2B companies. Bismart, from Barcelona, is the only listing outside Madrid, with public-sector clients named beside healthcare and tourism.

Spanish public procurement asks its questions before it asks about capability, and they are the ones to ask first. Which EU AI Act risk tier does your use case fall into, who holds the human-oversight duty, and what documentation did the supplier produce last time? A firm that has cleared a Spanish tender answers from the file rather than from the architecture, and the listings here with institutional history are the likeliest to have that file. Then ask what the administration could operate once the supplier left—model documentation, evaluation records, runbooks—because a system only its builder understands becomes a renewal you cannot decline. Knowmad Mood is the only entry publishing an hourly band, at €20-40, and it tells you little about tendered work, which prices on scope and documentation rather than on hours.
