Third quarterly report on monitoring of public procurement for 2012

The annulment problem is increasingly intensified for the larger tender procedures, that is, so-called open procedures for procurement of goods and service in the amount over EUR 20,000 and for works implementation in the amount over EUR 50,000. According to the monitored sample, such unfavorable trend is mostly due to the adopted decisions to annul the tenders because the estimated value of the procurement is lower than the financial offers by the companies bidders, and therefore, the institutions with their budgets cannot afford to pay them.
