Public procurement forms the foundation for transparent, fair and compliant purchasing, particularly within the public sector. It provides organisations with a structured way to select suppliers while adhering to legal requirements.
Public procurement is the process by which organisations invite suppliers to compete for contracts based on predefined procedures and rules, often derived from national legislation and EU directives. The aim is to select the best supplier in an objective and transparent manner.
Applying public procurement requires a structured approach in which the organisational need is clearly defined, the appropriate procedure is selected and transparent criteria are established for supplier selection and contract award. Throughout the process, it is essential to communicate clearly with the market, ensure equal treatment and document all steps carefully, enabling both legal compliance and effective procurement outcomes.
