Efektywność zamówień publicznych

The subject of this article is identification of the structure of key issues related to the assessment of effectiveness of public procurement. These issues are generally discussed in two dimensions: (1) as a narrower question of the appropriate choice of evaluation criteria in individual orders, and (2) as a broader problem of assessing the effectiveness of the entire public procurement institutional systems. When it comes to evaluation criteria in individual orders, the subject of discussions are primarily two issues: (1.1) selection and proper definition of economic effectiveness criteria, and (1.2) the admissibility of non-economic criteria. The effectiveness of procurement systems as a whole may be assessed: (2.1) in a comparative manner, as one of alternative ways of delivery of public services, and (2.2) separately, for each individual system, related to its internal goals, functional and structural criteria.
