Abstract
The paper analyses certain issues related to public procurement in general, as well as the public procurement procedure and the personnel responsible for conducting the procedure. The starting point is the international and domestic legal framework of the public procurement procedure, in order to further elaborate and analyse particular provisions of the domestic legislation that are important for the proper and quality implementation of the procurement procedure. Therefore, the paper pays special attention to the principles of public procurement, the Republic Commission for the Protection of Rights in Public Procurement Procedures as the main authority responsible for the protection of the rights of business entities that are participants in public procurement procedures, professionalization, i.e. professional development of public procurement officers, the relationship between public procurement and public interest, the criteria for selecting the most favourable offer and the protection of competition in the public procurement procedure. The aim of the paper is to point out certain adequate legal solutions in the field of public procurement, but also certain problems that arise during the implementation of the procurement procedure itself. At the same time, the paper contains a comparison between former and today´s legal regulations, as well as proposals for improving the quality of conducting the public procurement procedure. The paper also presents some key issues that are important for the proper functioning of the public procurement system along with the ways in which the procurement process can be improved to the extent necessary to achieve its main goals and improve the public policy of a country.
