Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes the current system of public procurement, the goals and limitations of the existing public procurement policy, with particular reference to the SIGMA reform requirements in the accession process and the principles or procedures of public procurement in the member states of the European Union. Historically, as an ancient activity, systematically as a process of state procurement of goods, services and works in the name of construction and development, as well as the provision of material resources for the performance of public authorities, public procurement is an important part of the national economy. Considering the importance, the public procurement system inevitably implies legitimate, controlled procedures, a high level of legal protection and supervision, especially for the purpose of eliminating and preventing possible abuses and corruption. Also, as the public procurement system implies the responsibility of public authorities towards citizens, it implies the highest quality standards, effective procedures for the purpose of protection and satisfaction of the public interest.
