Abstract:
In public procurement, the analysis of the main statistical indicators has a very important role. This analysis may reveal deficiencies in the ways of development of the public procurement procedures, which, following the determination of the causes that generated these deficiencies. These deficiencies may lead to the identification of measures able to improve the public procurement process, in order to obtain additional savings and implicitly in order to increase the efficiency of the use of public funds.
The analysis of the evolution of public procurement must be carried out both in the context of increased expenditure budgets, but especially in the case of:
- certain budgetary restrictions (diminished budgets);
- at the beginning of periods of economic crisis;
- during economic crises, in order to stimulate the economic environment through public procurement by treating public procurement as a factor for economic recovery.
The article describes an analysis of the statistical situation by counties of the number of contracting authorities, the number of tenderers, the number of invitations for tender published, the number of products / services published in the electronic catalogue and the number of direct purchases in Romania. These analysis refers to the period 01.04.2018 - 31.12.2018 through the Romanian Electronic Public Procurement System (SEAP) and identifies both a number of public procurement weaknesses and a number of positive aspects.
