]]> Public procurements can only be initiated if they are included in the annual plan and if the necessary funds are available. The new rules will be applied starting from November 21, the date when the regulation approved by the Government on October 15 comes into effect, reports IPN.

The document establishes that procurement procedures can be initiated with the involvement of subdivisions and the working group. At the same time, it promotes the integration of social, environmental, energy efficiency, and innovation criteria, directing the process towards a sustainable approach, specifies the Ministry of Finance in a press release.

The new regulation details the stages of the planning process – from the identification and analysis of needs to the development, approval, and monitoring of the annual procurement plan, correlated with the budget and institutional strategies.

For greater administrative efficiency, as well as to ensure the correctness and transparency in the use of public funds, the Government has recently introduced differentiated value thresholds for the awarding of public procurement contracts: 1 million lei for works and social services and 600 thousand lei for goods and services. At the same time, the ceiling for additional purchases has been increased from 15% to 25%.

]]> Tenders submitted by economic operators to the National Agency for the Settlement of Disputes will be subject to a state fee starting June 16. The measure applies to all public, sectoral and concession procurement procedures, IPN reports.

According to ANSC, the fee will constitute 0.5% of the estimated value of the contested procedure, but will not exceed the maximum amount of 50 thousand lei. For example, for a purchase estimated at 2 300 000 lei, the fee will be 11 500 lei, and in the case of a procedure of 10 million lei, the ceiling fee of 50 thousand lei will be applied.

The payment must be made within three working days of the lodging of the appeal, and in the absence of proof of payment, the file will not be examined. In the event of a favorable decision for the contestant, the fee will be refunded in full.

ANSC data shows that in 2024, out of 1 245 appeals filed, about 70% were rejected or withdrawn. The introduction of the fee is aimed at reducing the number of unfounded complaints and increasing efficiency in the appeals process, as well as in the use of public funds.
