Procurement planning

Deficiency:

There are frequent and large-scale changes in the approved plans of the state procurement. Moreover, a large amount of unplanned procurement takes place at the beginning of the year. This fact, itself creates the risk of uneconomical management of budgetary funds

Determination of specifications

Deficiency:

Certain budgetary organizations cannot properly define the technical and qualitative characteristics of the goods/services, which causes the cancellation of the tenders, lengthening the tender procedures and/or the purchasing of the goods/services with the motive of urgent necessity, as long as it is impossible to have electronic tender procedures because of time constraint. As a result, the risk of uneconomical usage of budget funds increases

Market research

Deficiency:

In some cases, the preliminary research of the market is not properly done, the technical and qualitative characteristics of the procurement object are not studied and the estimated market value of the procurement object during the current period is not defined. As a result, cancelled tenders or significant economies arise in the procurement process. This indicates to the deficiencies in the determination of the estimated value of the procurement object and increases the risk of uneconomical usage of budget funds in the absence of competition

Receiving applications

Deficiency:

Gaps in communication between the structural units of budgetary organizations causes termination of tenders and/or delay in procurement of goods and services, which increases the risk of inefficient spending of budgetary funds.

Evaluation of pretenders

Deficiency:

In certain cases, while identifying the tender winner, procuring entity does not scrutinize if the submitted bidding documents fully satisfy the bidding requirements and also, in case of delayed or incomplete submission of documents the applicants are not disqualified

Determination of needs

Deficiency:

In case of some budget organizations, tenders are announcement on those type of goods/ services, which are not needed. Mostly, this is discovered after the completion
