TRANSFORMATION OF PUBLIC PROCUREMENT IN UKRAINE

Abstract

One of the mechanisms to ensure the public and state needs in goods, works and services is procurement, the principles of which are based on openness, transparency and efficiency. In various periods, rules of procurement in public sector of the economy were changed by regulatory and legal acts. Performance indicators of procurement (such as level of competition, share of competitive purchases and share of canceled bids) were being changed as well. Low performance indicators of procurement have caused negative consequences for the development of the national economy. Continued application of competitive methods of implementation remains unchanged in the evolution of procurement. The latest trend in procurement processes is their automation, which greatly increases the level of openness, but does not solve the problems of timely and high-quality satisfaction of needs in public and the state procurement.
Development of procurement in public sector of the economy, depending on state of procurement legal regulation in 2000-2017, is studied. Structure of public procurement, dynamics of canceled trades and structure of the value of concluded contracts by sources of financing and methods of procurement are analyzed.
Comparative characteristic of Ukrainian legislation on procurement by various criteria is carried out in the scientific literature. Assessment of the current system of electronic public procurement is controversial in scientific circles.
The stages of formation and development of procurement of goods, works and services are determined on the basis of evolution of procurement legal regulations. Dynamics of the main indicators of procurement is analyzed as well. The author used the method of retrospective analysis and statistical analysis methods based on data published by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, the analytic module of the Prozorro electronic system, reports of international organizations and the Accounting Chamber of Ukraine.
