Planning of Public Procurements in Macedonia: Between the Needs and the Reality – State-of-affairs, problems that need to be addressed, and proposals for improvement.

On annual level, the value of public procurements organized in our country ranges from 600 million to almost 1 billion euros and accounts from 6% to 10% of the Gross Domestic Product. Having in mind that public institutions manage and spend funds in whose creation they have not directly participated (revenue is created by means of collection of taxes and other charges levied on citizens and companies), nor do they suffer any economic consequences from irrational spending of said funds (public funds are not personal property of entities/persons managing them and loss thereof does not imply personal damages), there is a need for continuous improvement of mechanisms that should guarantee transparent, legal and purposeful use of funds for public procurements.
