Non Profit Organizations

Non-profit organizations deliver a wide range of meaningful resources to communities in such diverse areas as education, arts, social services, etc. However, compared to the private sector, their funding potential is much more limited. The increasing social and economic impact of the non-profit sector is a reason why there is a need to persistently enhance these opportunities. State contracts have the potential to be regarded as one of the most essential sources of funding for non-profit organizations in the social sphere. In Russia, recently passed laws ensure substantial benefits for 'socially oriented' non-profit organizations that participate in public procurement. Nevertheless, despite the existence of norms allowing socially oriented NPOs to be granted preference in tenders, the presence of the non-profit sector in the Russian public procurement market is still insignificant. This study seeks to analyze the peculiarities of Russian public procurement legislation. The main question of the study is why state procurement failed to become a driver for the development of the non-profit sector in Russia? To answer this question, firstly we consider the functioning mechanisms of socially oriented NPOs in the public procurement market. Then, we analyse the results of expert interviews, which let us identify the following barriers limiting the participation of NPOs in public procurement: economic, financial, social, and organizational. Finally, we draw the conclusion that, for the majority of non-profit organizations, state procurements are an optional source of funding in view of the barriers identified above. This study is relevant for government and public authorities as it can serve as a starting point for improving the mechanisms of attracting the non-profit sector to the sphere of public procurement.

The Way

The socioeconomic changes that many countries have been experiencing in recent decades, caused by structural factors or by specific circumstances, where the pandemic crisis of COVID-19 is only the most recent example, have posed challenges to organizations, which present themselves more and more and in various forms as threatened by the possibility of fulfilling their mission. Public and private sectors increasingly present themselves as insufficient to respond effectively to day-to-day requests. This context of instability and the resulting impacts for non-profit organizations pose serious problems to the way in which governance is exercised and served as a motivation for carrying out a study that aimed to understand the influence of strategy and human resources on the governance of these organizations. A review of the literature on the variables under study made it possible to identify the sub-dimensions associated with each one of them and the respective indicators. Thus, for a quantitative study, it was possible to apply a questionnaire to 242 Holy Houses of Mercy in Portugal to understand the direct and indirect influences of strategic management and human resources management on the governance of these institutions. The results obtained show the existence of a positive relationship between the variables under analysis, confirming that not only do these variables influence, by themselves and directly, the governance of the institutions studied, but also the strategy influences human resources policies, which in turn have implications for the way the Holy Houses of Mercy deal with aspects associated with governance. It is concluded that, in general, for these organizations to be more effective in efforts to improve their governance processes, they must focus on strategic management and human resources management instruments.
