Directorate's task:

The directorate is part of the state administration under the Minister of Finance. The directorate assumes the responsibility and tasks of a central purchasing body (CPB) as per art. 37 of EU Directive 24/2014. The main objective of the directorate is to improve the efficiency of the public procurement process in the central government by conducting centralised public procurement procedures.

The legal basis for the establishment of the CPB stems from article 96 of the national Public Procurement Law. The scope of its operation is defined under Council of Ministers’ Decree No.385/2015 (CoM Decree) as amended.
