Key risks from corruption in public procurements at local level and recommendations for overcoming them
24/02/202313
The goal of this document for public policies is to summarize the key risks from corruption and the recommendations for overcoming them that have been determined by monitoring the public procurements of municipality and local public companies which was conducted on the base of a unified methodology by 8 non-governmental organisations in 8 municipalities in the country: Bitola, Kichevo, Kumanovo, Negotino, Strumica, Tetovo, Chair and Shtip.
aving in mind the purchase power of money that are spent annually on public procurements for state institutions to purchase goods, services and construction works for their needs and for needs in the society, it becomes clear that procurement of products that have lesser negative impact on the environment could make a significant contribution towards sustainability of the environment in which we live and work.

Policy brief
16/09/202214
Emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has created a need for fast adjustment to the newly created situation, especially in respect to procurements that should be urgently implemented on the account that the people’s security, life and health are directly threatened.
Preventing Corruption in Public Procurement: What can the contracting authorities do? This policy brief is focused on addressing corruption and conflict of interests in public procurement at institutional level, i.e. what can and should be done in this regard.
In North Macedonia, public procurements are implemented pursuant to the relatively new Law on Public Procurements whose enforcement started in April 2019.
The proposed measures are developed on the basis of in-depth research of corruption risks, systematized in the research paper “Mapping Corruption Risks in Public Procurements of Enterprises Owned by the Government and Municipalities” and individual screening of 37 state-owned enterprises founded by the Government, the City of Skopje and Municipalities of Gostivar, Kavadarci and Struga, which provides an overview of key parameters that reflect the manner in which they implement public procurements, as well as their human resource capacity and internal policies. Weaknesses noted in all previously conducted research papers and analyses have confirmed the need to enhance integrity and reduce corruption risks at public enterprises and joint stock companies.Recommendations presented in this document are drafted as part of the project “Towards Accountable Enterprises”, implemented by the Center for Civil Communications with financial support from the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Skopje in the period 2019-2021, and aimed at establishing sustainable mechanisms to advance implementation of public procurements and to strengthen integrity in the process of public spending under tender procedures organized by state-owned enterprises founded by the Government, the City of Skopje and Municipalities of Gostivar, Kavadarci and Struga.In February 2021, the Center for Civil Communications presented the Government of the Republic of North Macedonia with portion of proposed measures, as presented in this document, as contribution in the process of drafting the Government’s Action Plan to Fight Corruption.
Except for providing a means for state institutions to purchase goods, services and works needed to maintain their normal operation, public procurements imply provision of goods that facilitate normal conditions for life and work of the population and their continuous improvement.

Frequent annulment of tender procedures as one of the major problems in public procurement Frequent annulment of tender procedures one of the major and most lasting problems in the system of public procurements in our country.
Policy Brief
29/11/201916
Transparency is not sufficient to improve state-of-affairs in public procurements Publication of more information and documents related to tender procedures in the last several years has contributed to increased transparency of the system of public procurements in the country, but this trend was not accompanied with improved integrity and accountability of the institutions that implement tender procedures.
Policy paper
06/02/201913
According to the applicable Law on Public Procurements (Article 26), on the basis of established sources of funding the contracting authorities adopt their plans on overall procurement needs in the current year per type of goods, services and works, in compliance with the General Glossary of Public Procurements (GGPP), wherein they also define expected start of procurement procedure, contract’s estimated value and type of procedure to be organized on awarding the procurement contract.
One of key generators behind the lukewarm efforts to fight corruption and, in general, abuses/malpractices of any type in public procurements concerns lack of any control or oversight whatsoever over implementation of public procurements.
Analysis of state-of-affairs in public procurements imposed the need to reexamine efficiency of legal protection in Macedonia, under circumstances when the number of appeals is continuously declining despite the galloping growth of tender procedures announced and implemented. Furthermore, the efficiency of the legal protection system becomes more important in the light of the fact that public procurements in the country account for 12% of the Gross Domestic Product. On annual level, state institutions spend more than 900 million EUR on procurement of goods, services and works, notably by means of public procurement procedures, which account for as high as 35% of all central budget funds. This fact is indicative of the importance of public procurements not only in terms of normal functioning of the state, but also in terms of the overall economic activity.

SKOPJE, December 28, 2012 – Today the Centre for Civil Communications published findings from their monitoring of public procurement procedures in Macedonia covering the period from July to September 2012. Some of the key findings are: There is a continually increasing problem of annulment of larger tenders - those for procurement of goods and services costing more than 20,000 euros or for implementation of works costing more than 50,000 euros. There is an increasing trend of adopting decisions to annul such tenders mainly because the estimated value of the procurement is lower than the bids offered by the companies. Some institutions continue to disobey the rule for accurate definition of the evaluation criteria. Instead of the quality of a bid, some tenders mainly appraise the experience of the bidding companies. In the third quarter of 2012, 210 contracts amounting to 14 million euros were concluded through non-transparent negotiating procedures without publishing a call for bids. Overall, in the first nine months of 2012, the value of such contracts amounted to approximately 32 million euros. A comparative analysis of the Macedonian legislation and seven European countries indicates that no other country creates so-called ”black lists” of bidders that are banned from participating in tender processes for a given time period (1 to 5 years) for activating bank guarantees. The monitoring report is available on-line at www.ccc.org.mk. For further information please contact the Centre for Civil Communications at (02) 3213-513 or at center@ccc.org.mk.
