aufteilung in lose
allocation of partial contracts


Explanation:
Yes, a literal translation of the German is "division into lots". However, the context is the awarding of a contract. These are not divided into "lots" - no more than in German, by the way. In business terms one would speak of allocating or awarding partial contracts.
