| Summary: | The main objectives of the country
procurement assessment are to diagnose the public
procurement system in Ukraine, assess compatibility of the
country's laws, policies and procedures with
international best practices, review compliance with the
procurement laws and regulations and identify areas for
improvement of the procurement system in Ukraine. With due
recognition of the considerable achievements made to date,
the Government of Ukraine continues to face challenges in
the further development of the country's public
procurement system. The most significant of these relate to:
further development of the legislative framework; improving
procurement procedures and practices; increasing
competition; more effective and consistent implementation of
the Public Procurement Law; combating procurement-related
corruption; developing the institutional capacity of
procuring entities; improving the professional
qualifications of public-sector staff; and increasing
compatibility with international bodies of procurement law,
including those of the European Union (EU) and the World
Trade Organization (WTO). This report is organized as
follows: Section I of the CPAR report describes
Ukraine's existing public procurement system, including
its policies, procedures and practices as well as
institutional and organizational framework. It assesses the
implementation aspects and makes recommendations for
reforming the system in major areas. Section II identifies
issues in the implementation of projects financed by the
World Bank. The performance of the private sector in the
procurement process of the country, with its emerging
issues, is described in Section III. Finally, Section IV
suggests an action plan with key recommendations for
implementation by the Government. Attachments list a
summary of different provisions in the PPL; strengths and
weaknesses in the public procurement system and provisions
in the Law discussed with the PPO to further improve the
legal framework; and a technical assistance program for
consideration by the Bank. |
