Prozorro discloses information on non-armed defense procurement, - Ministry of Economy
This was reported by the Deputy Minister of Economy of Ukraine, Nadia Bihun, Censor.NET informs with reference to the press center of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.
"From our experience, the very fact that information about your purchases will be published in Prozorro is an incentive to approach them more carefully," Bigun believes.
According to her, defense customers will report precisely on non-armed purchases (food, property, fuel, etc.) from UAH 200,000 for goods and services, and UAH 1.5 million for works. The reports will contain a limited amount of information - the name of the customer, the subject of the purchase and the price per unit.
In the case of procurement of catering services, customers will need to report the price per unit of each product included in this service. To do this, they will be able to upload a file with relevant calculations to the Prozorro system.
"Returning transparency in defense procurement is only the first step. Currently, we are working on creating a new procedure for framework agreements for defense needs, thanks to which defense forces will be able to conduct competitive selection of suppliers through the Prozorro system, and at the same time not publish sensitive information in the system," she explained.
According to Mykola Tkachenko, the director of Prozorro State Enterprise, defense customers may not publish data on the total amount and volume of purchases, the place of delivery, and the name of the supplier.
"At the same time, we did everything possible to ensure that the published information was sufficient for price analysis," Tkachenko noted.
The law stipulates that defense customers and military units must publish reports to the Prozorro system within 10 working days of signing the contract. In addition, by June 22, they will need to report on all contracts concluded since February 24, 2022, that is, from the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
