THE CONTRIBUTION OF HUMAN RESOURCES WITHIN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION ON PUBLIC PROCUREMENT PROCESS
THE CONTRIBUTION OF HUMAN RESOURCES WITHIN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION ON PUBLIC PROCUREMENT PROCESS

Summary/Abstract: Contracting authorities defined under Law 98/2016 on public procurement1 are directly responsible for making public procurement and quality. In order to carry out public procurement, the contracting authorities set up a specialized internal compartment consisting of at least three persons, two thirds with higher education, and specializations in the field of procurement. To the extent that the organizational structure does not allow this, the main tasks2shall be performed by other persons designated by an administrative act of the head of the contracting authority. The lack of a profession or the passing of professional stages in the field of public procurement in Romania, an inadequate reputation in relation to the complexity of the work done by the staff responsible for public procurement, are problems that have not been resolved and lead to fluctuations of staff. The field of public procurement continues to be a challenge, although progress has been made in terms of the functionality of the Romanian public procurement system by transposing the new European directives into national legislation.
