Cost of procurement for Russian regional public customers: estimation and analysis
НИУ ВШЭ

2016.
Public procurement procedures prescribed by legislation not only enhance transparency and competition
but also entail certain transaction costs for both customers and suppliers. These costs are important
to the efficiency of the procurement system. However, very few previous studies have focused on
estimating procurement costs. This paper proposes a methodology for public procurement cost evaluation.
We show how procurement costs can be calculated using a formalized survey of public customers.
This methodology was tested with a representative group of public customers operating in one region
of the Russian Federation. We formulate the policy implications of our study as they relate to the improvement
of public procurement regulations and argue that this methodological approach can be applied
in other developing and transitioning economies.

Disputes over penalties for breaching a contract are often resolved in court.

В статьи описываются взаимосвязанные циклы государственных, стратегических, хозяйственных и финансовых планов. Это вместе можно рассматривать как особый хозяйственно – финансовый календарь, создание которого позволит связать воедино стратегические планы и прогнозы с бюджетным процессом и государственными закупками. В таком календаре заложено несколько ритмов. Создание гармоничного «календаря публичного хозяйства» позволит уменьшить рисксингулярности хозяйственных процедур, связанной с политическими ...

Set aside procedures in public procurement are those reserved for a sub-class of bidders, such as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) only, as a tool of the preferential treatment of SMEs by many governments. Prior studies and our results indicate these setasides reduce costs of government contracting. If they are cheaper, why should regulations enforce them, and why do ...
