The article analyzes ways to increase the efficiency of public administration in the field of procurement. The legal and regulatory conditions that affect the ability of the private sector to interact with the public sector in order to make a profit are described. The analysis of these conditions focuses on two key aspects: the procurement process, starting from the stage of formation of demand for goods, work, services and ending with the implementation of the state contract, and the mechanism for reviewing complaints in the system. The following indicators of system efficiency were used as indicators for these processes: needs assessment, invitation to participate in procurement; submission of applications; consideration, evaluation of applications, conclusion of a contract; content and management of the contract; warranty obligations; payment obligations; complaints submitted to the bodies of first instance; complaints filed with the bodies of second instance. It should be noted that this list of basic data is not exhaustive, but most significantly affects the final effect of the implementation of norms and rules of procurement in the country. Based on the results of the analysis of the World Bank research, recommendations have been developed for improving the organizational and administrative methods of managing the system of goods, works and services procurement. It is proved that the assessment of the economic efficiency of placing an order can be carried out in comparison with: the maximum possible indicators within the procedure completed by the time of analysis; with generalized results of the initial level using the same procedures; with positions planned by the customer, taking into account one or more indicators. The opinion on the need to analyze all the processes taking place in the public procurement system: from procurement planning to monitoring the progress of the contract. In addition, it is emphasized that when assessing the effectiveness of procurement, it is necessary to take into account not only the economic efficiency and effectiveness of the procedure, but also social efficiency, as one of the objectives of procurement is to meet customer needs.

For multi year contracts or contracts with renewal option, the contracting Authority must provide clauses for the revision of prices in accordance with published official inflation. In case of goods the contracts through renting or leasing of these, the estimated value of the public contract shall be based on the monthly rent or fee multiplied by the number of months the contract will last. The contracting Authority is responsible for comparing the above mentioned elements with a cost analyses of the goods, services or works.

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.

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.
