Procurement
CorporateProcurement in LMETB
Procurement throughout ETBs is carried out in accordance with National and European Union Public Procurement Regulations & Directives, Legislation, Policy and Guidelines.
There is an onus on public bodies to ensure that the public procurement function is discharged ethically, honestly, and fairly in a manner that secures best value for money.
Public Procurement Principles
The Treaty of Rome on the functioning of the EU applies to all procurement activity regardless of value. The procurement of Goods/Supplies, Services or Works in the public sector must comply with the Treaty’s fundamental procurement principles:
- Transparency: All procurement activities are open and transparent with necessary information provided to all. Procurement intentions and decisions should be advertised publicly.
- Equal treatment and Non-Discrimination: The same rules apply to all with equal rights of access. Decisions are to be based on objectivity and fairness.
- Proportionality: All measures used must be both necessary and appropriate in relation to the objective i.e. the award of contract. No excessive or disproportionate conditions, criteria, or rules are to be applied.
- Mutual Recognition: Equal validity is to be given to qualifications / standards applicable in other Member States.
