Contracting authorities
The importance of our services comes from the fact that in Romania, public procurement procedures are conducted in accordance with specific legislation and are subject to constraints and challenges.
It is important to mention that in recent years, efforts have been made to simplify and improve public procurement procedures in Romania, in order to increase transparency, efficiency, and fair competition. However, successfully overcoming these constraints can also be achieved by accessing our company’s services.
Bureaucracy and complexity
Public procurement procedures in Romania are often considered complex and bureaucratic. There are a multitude of documents, forms, and steps that need to be followed, which can make the process more difficult and can lead to delays.
Duration of the process
Public procurement procedures in Romania can be quite lengthy, which can create difficulties for participants and delay the implementation of projects. This is partly due to rigorous evaluation and selection procedures, as well as potential disputes and litigation.
Restrictive rules regarding selection criteria
Sometimes the selection criteria imposed by contracting entities can be too restrictive or subjectively interpreted. This can lead to the exclusion of qualified bidders and the limit competition in the bidding process.
Corruption and lack of transparency
Public tenders may be vulnerable to corruption practices and adverse influences. It can affect fair competition and create an environment in which decisions are influenced by inappropriate factors, to the detriment of the public interest.
Limited resources and capacities
Both for contracting entities and for participants in tenders, resources and capacities can be limited. This can affect the ability to develop and manage tender documentation, comply with requirements, and deal with the necessary workload.
Appeals and litigation
Bidding procedures can be subject to challenges and disputes, which can delay the implementation of projects and generate additional costs. Even when these challenges are justified and necessary to ensure transparency and fairness in the process, they can create delays and uncertainties.
