ESMIG’s Fair Competition Task Force has developed a new position paper on Fair Competition, taking into consideration the latest developments and the European Commission’s work programme.
The position focuses on 3 main issues related to public procurements: Notification of foreign subsidies, abnormally low prices, and non-price criteria.
In a nutshell, actions should be taken to strengthen cybersecurity, contract award criteria, address non-compliance with EU rules and standards, tackle abnormally low tenders, and be stricter in terms of buyer accountability.
