Abstract Research background: Public procurement for innovation has increasingly been the subject of EU policy makers. A lot of changes in the European directives and Polish law have been observed that facilitate the process required for the public procurement of innovation. Purpose: The purpose of the paper is an attempt to study a functioning public procurement system as a sourcing mechanism for innovative products and services in Poland. Research Methodology: Review of the existing legislation concerning public procurement especially the Public Procurement Law in Poland after its amendment of 2016 and analysis of the results of a survey conducted among contracting entities and contractors of public procurement. Results: The empirical study suggests that there is a deficit of knowledge of both contracting entities and contractors, concerning awareness and application of legal provisions facilitating procuring innovative products. The existing scale of innovative solutions’ application by contracting entities is very low, resulting from a lack of needs or due to the business profile, which does not contribute to increasing the demand for innovative products. Novelty: There is a lack of similar investigations in the Polish and European literature. It is worth stressing that public procurement viewed as a special case of innovation which is distinct from the procurement of a regular market. The empirical results are based on a study conducted in 2018 by the Public Procurement Office in Poland.

Procurement System

Public procurement has been the subject of research for a long time in the work of scientists from both the economically developed countries and those undergoing the transformation of public finances. Their research comes from different points of view, namely from the essence of the definition, the process of their conduct, the problems of the legislative framework to their effective implementation. In addition, the issue of electronic public procurement, which can greatly enhance the transparency of this process and reduce the level of corruption inherent in this area in all countries without any exception, is becoming increasingly relevant in recent times.Based on the conducted analysis, the article proposes the definition of the term of public procurement, defines the principles of public procurement as a controlled subject in the electronic environment of their conduct, and systematizes the basic indicators characterizing the effectiveness of public procurement. Based on the Granger causality method, an analysis of efficiency was performed and the basic indicators determining the level of savings in the public procurement system were determined. It is established that the use of Granger causality in changing the amount of savings in the system of public procurement gives only a quantitative characteristic. For a more complete picture quantitative analysis is supplemented with qualitative parameters.

Weak Independence

Abstract. Introduction. Any political system exists as a set of institutions and organizations that are collectively responsible for social organization and assuming various managerial functions. Since the fundamental task of the state is to ensure sustainable economic development, the processes that can ensure certain economic shifts are almost a defining component of economic policy and are urgent. Ukraine, striving for real change, did not miss this trend of change, as the political bankruptcy of the state apparatus led to weak independence, and a huge corruption component exhausted the economy and brought Ukraine to the brink of economic crisis. The decisive way to solve this problem was the renewal of the public procurement system, governed by specific regulations, and its transfer from the shadow format to the electronic one in 2016 for public availability. An e-procurement system is a tool for detecting and combating corruption through numerous tools for monitoring and analyzing public procurement. In addition, the system is unique in its structure, since it works in cooperation with three parties – government, business, and the public. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to study and compare the laws of Ukraine "On public procurement" that were in force until 2021 and the new law that came into force on 01.01.2021. Fundamental amending and supplementing to the articles of the law are subject to assessment. Results. The issue of current innovations in the public procurement sector is investigated. The historical development of the implementation of the public procurement system on the example of "Prozzoro" is highlighted. The paper deals with the cycle and the process of implementation of public procurement, the structure of the electronic system of public procurement. The general state of functioning of electronic procurement in Ukraine and tools of the e-procurement analytics module is analyzed. Public procurement procedures contribute to the provision of society with goods, works, and services in the required quantity and quality on time and acceptable contractual relations. It is difficult to imagine the development of economic prosperity without the full functioning of the mechanism of transparent public procurement, which can ensure uninterrupted interaction between all representatives of the economic system at the macroeconomic level. The Law of Ukraine "On Public Procurement" and some other legislative acts of Ukraine on strengthening control and responsibility for violations of legislation in the field of public procurement, ensuring proper protection of the rights of public procurement participants are analyzed. The prospect of further research is to consider the content and evaluation of innovations in the Law of Ukraine "On Public Procurement" and objective conclusions regarding innovative solutions and future developments. Conclusions. The most significant achievements in the development of the public procurement system in Ukraine were achieved in the period 2016-2021 since the enactment of the Law of Ukraine "On Public Procurement" and the introduction of the electronic procurement system ProZorro. To this date, the achievements in the field of reforming the public procurement system are noticeable to the general public, because the disclosure of the system has increased the level of knowledge of citizens in this area. However, there are gaps in the legislation that do not exclude the possibility of abuse by individual bidders. This necessitates further scientific research towards the development of the public procurement system in Ukraine. The prospect of further research is to consider the content and evaluation of innovations in the Law of Ukraine "On Public Procurement" and objective conclusions regarding innovative solutions and future developments.

Public procurement represents an important part of the current economy reality. Throughout the procurement process, due to the effect of the interaction among the components of the public procurement system, certain actions with significant negative effects on its optimal operation may occur. Risks may turn into certainty either because of a simple error in the development and administration of the procurement process, or because of a deliberate deviation from the existing legal provisions. Therefore, there is an imperative for the implementation of certain risk-avoiding measures, as well as of measures aiming to reduce their negative effects in case of their occurrence.

Subject. The article deals with the analysis of suppliers in the public procurement system based on reasonable prequalification parameters. Objectives. The aim is to test the hypothesis about strong reputation characteristics of the winners in the public procurement system and develop a methodology for assessing the reputation of suppliers for prequalification purposes. Methods. We employ general scientific principles and methods of research, like abstraction, generalization of approaches used by domestic and foreign authors for prequalification and assessment of reputation of public procurement participants. Results. To test the hypothesis, we calculated four groups of indicators on corporate, financial, market, and social components of reputation. The methodology was tested on the data obtained from SPARK-Interfax and SPARK-Marketing information resources. Conclusions. The study revealed that not all reputational characteristics of public procurement winners can be regarded as high level. In terms of the corporate component, it is the low level of share capital, indicating the mistrust on the part of owners and their reluctance to invest in the business, and the low percentage of non-current assets. In terms of the market component, it is a low sales growth rate, as well as low return on sales. As to the financial component, it is a low capitalization of winners, low share of long-term debt capital and low credit limit. With respect to the social component, it is a below-average tax burden.

The relevance of this research topic lies in the fact that public procurement requires in-depth consideration and comprehensive analysis, including the scientific and methodological level of analysis. The use of special legal documents in public procurement and the specific procedure for the execution of these documents is not a factor in the full understanding of this direction, including the economic assessment of the entire process. An economic and statistical approach using system analysis is required, which was used by the authors of the scientific article as the proposed research methodology. One of the main parts of the progressive process of commodity exchange in the economies of the analyzed countries is the mechanism for building public procurement. Currently, the problem of material and technical support of public needs in developed countries is solved as a result of logistics processes in the system of public procurement through the acquisition and supply of goods, works, and services, tangible and intangible resources. The article submits a review of foreign experience in building a public procurement system with special features characteristic of this region of the world, presented as an object of research. Country aspects in the object under study and allowed the authors to formulate the relevant main results and conclusions concerning various parties in the public procurement system, which determined the further strategy to improve the procurement system of the government and international integration union.

Saudi Arabia has had many issues in delivering mega construction projects, such as delays, high costs, and low customer satisfaction. Some studies show that around 70% of public projects in Saudi Arabia are delayed. One factor that might be causing these performance issues is the traditional low bid contracting system in Saudi Arabia, or the Saudi procurement system. In Saudi Arabia, owners select contractors based only upon the lowest price. This paper researched ways to modify the current Saudi procurement system and show quick and simple modifications that can be done to improve the low performance. This research proposes that by adding the clarification phase from the Performance Information Procurement System (PIPS) to the Saudi traditional procurement process could greatly improve construction performance. The clarification phase requires the selected contractor to submit a project scope, detailed and milestone schedule, potential risks that they do not control, and performance measurement before a contract is awarded. The PIPS system is one of the most successful systems around the world, which shows success rate of 98% in six different countries with risk and cost reduction up to 30%. The clarification phase has been identified as the most important step in the PIPS to ensuring a successful project. This paper conducted a survey among construction professionals in Saudi Arabia, including 157 engineers, 33 consultants 9 owners, 5 vendors, 13 academics, and 28 architects, in order to develop the public procurement system in Saudi Arabia. The participants work in government sectors with an interest in the Saudi Arabian procurement system. The survey confirmed that professionals in the Saudi construction industry believe that the procurement system should be changed and that the inclusion of the clarification phase to the procurement system is a way to improve the procurement system.
