Искусственное дробление закупок как способ ухода от конкурентных процедур
The article is devoted to the study of the problem of artificial fragmentation of state and municipal procurement as a way to avoid mandatory competitive procedures. The authors analyze the contradictory nature of judicial practice and positions of supervisory authorities on issues of qualification of procurement fragmentation, revealing the absence of unified criteria and a legislatively established definition of this violation. The work systematizes the main approaches to understanding artificial procurement fragmentation, formulated in decisions of arbitration courts and acts of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of Russia. Based on the analysis of law enforcement practice, the authors propose their own definition of artificial procurement fragmentation and substantiate the necessity of its legislative consolidation in Article 3 of Federal Law No. 44-FZ. The study contains recommendations for improving the system of preventing procurement fragmentation, including the development of automated monitoring systems and the implementation of international methods for assessing corruption risks.
