Summary: | Montenegro is currently in the process
of modernizing and restructuring its public procurement
system, not only with a view to bringing its procurement
system in line with international best practices and
complete its accession requirements to enter the EU, but
also to constructing more efficient and competitive public
procurement, that will enable optimization of results. In
order to guarantee that significant improvements are built
into the procurement system, the Government of Montenegro
has taken several steps to tackle its shortcomings, namely
by devising strategies for the development of the
procurement system along with action plans that establish
specific measures and goals and respective timeframes for
completion and tracking the implementation of such measures.
The assessments conducted by external entities to the
Government of Montenegro have shown that such strategies
have been productive in addressing issues in the public
procurement system of Montenegro and showcase a steady
evolution towards better procurement practices. The analyses
introduced by this methodology will most definitely
concentrate on performance compliance indicators. These will
allow for a more quantitative-based approach to monitoring
of the public procurement practices in Montenegro,
introducing a less formal concept of monitoring, which is
currently restricted to legal and regulatory compliance and
emphasizes formal and administrative aspects of procurement.
Analyzing and improving the system of procurement is
entirely dependent on data available and the analysis of the
data for gathering business intelligence and increase
productivity of all entities in the system. To this end,
guidelines and key performance indicators (KPIs) on how to
improve the monitoring, auditing and reporting mechanisms
will be introduced. This analysis will also include the
benchmarking of the 2015 annual report by the PPA, where
monitoring will be assessed in terms of compliance with
proposed targets and changes verified up to this point. |
