Public Procurement Procedures and Their Effects: Evidence from the EU
Čep, Jiří ; Palanský, Miroslav (advisor) ; Matoušek, Jindřich (referee)
The goal of this thesis is to analyze the effect the choice of procurement procedure has on the price of public procurement. We achieve this by investigating the dataset on public procurement data in the EU by the Digiwhist project. In the presented model, we explain the variation in the difference of final and estimated price of procurement as a function of procurement procedure used and a set of auction characteristics such as the number of bidders, contract complexity, type of supply and others. The results show that the open procedure is generally superior to its alternatives in terms of monetary savings. We also demonstrate that in the open procedure, the largest part of the cost reduction comes from the competition effect caused by the number of bidders present, whereas other procedures are not as sensitive to changes in the number of bidders. We find that the average number of bidders is significantly lower than the optimal number would be. 1
Effectivness of Legislative Novel on Procurement Contracts in Prague
Mrázek, Martin ; Babin, Jan (advisor) ; Svoboda, Miroslav (referee)
This paper is focused on impact of amendment to the Act on public procurement contracts of April 1, 2012 in Prague. Assumption that this legislative change will reduce prices of these contracts was not confirmed, at least in the first year of its application. Regression analysis shows that use of more transparent procedures included in the amendment to the Act would lead to 4 % price decline. But contracts affected by this legal change almost disappeared, probably due to manipulation with tenders. Also number of bidders has significant impact on price.
