35 Report on Monitoring the Implementation of Public Procurement (July-December 2020)
The Center for Civil Communications (CCC) regularly monitors and analyses implementation of public procurements in the country since 2008, i.e. when the Law on Public Procurements drafted in compliance with the European Commission’s Directives entered into effect. The overall purpose of this endeavour is to assess whether and to what extent state institutions comply with underlying principles in public spending, as stipulated under the law: competition among companies, equal treatment and nondiscrimination of companies, transparency and integrity in implementation of public procurements, cost-effective and efficient public spending.
Subject to monitoring performed by CCC are procedures organized and implemented by all state institutions in the country, both at central and local level of government. Selection of the monitoring sample is made upon publication of procurement notices in the Electronic Public Procurement System (EPPS) and the “Official Gazette of RNM”.
