Public procurement is one of the key tools for ensuring public needs. They are regulated by the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Public Procurement" and the relevant Rules for Public Procurement approved by the authorized body. Below, we will briefly consider the main methods of public procurement, the conditions of participation for potential suppliers, as well as the procedure for appealing decisions and actions of participants in the procurement process.1. The main methods of public procurement Government agencies carry out purchases in the following ways: • Open tender — used for purchases that require a qualitative assessment of proposals. The winner is determined based on a set of criteria, including price and qualification. • Auction — used primarily for the purchase of standard goods and services. The lowest bidder wins. • Request for price offers is a fast way of purchasing, where the annual volume of goods, works, and services in value terms does not exceed 8,000 MCI. The winner is the participant with the lowest price that meets the requirements. • From a single source — Public procurement using a single source method is carried out in the cases provided for in paragraphs 2 and 3 of Article 16 of the Law on Public Procurement and is divided into two types: 1) From a single source for failed public procurement – applies if public procurement through a tender or auction is declared invalid in cases stipulated by Law. 2) From a single source by direct conclusion – is applied in exceptional cases provided for by law. It can be used, for example, in emergency situations (floods, fires, etc.), if there is only one supplier (for example, a copyright holder, a natural monopoly), for urgent repairs of equipment, for purchases related to state secrets or defense, and other cases. • Through commodity exchanges — it is used to purchase goods subject to exchange trading in accordance with the procedure established by the legislation on commodity exchanges.2. Terms and procedure for participation in procurement Potential suppliers should: • Register on the electronic public procurement platform goszakup.gov.kz • Have an electronic digital signature (EDS). • Provide documents confirming compliance with the qualification requirements (if necessary). • Submit the application on time and in the appropriate format. The specifics of participation depend on the purchase method. For example, in an open tender, you need to prepare a technical proposal, and in an auction, you need to be ready to participate in a price reduction in real time.3. Procurement protocols and results The procurement results are formalized by official protocols, which are posted on the public procurement portal. They specify: • Name of the winner; • The suggested price; • Justification of the choice; • The results of the application review. The protocols are available to all registered users and ensure transparency of the procurement process.4. Appeal procedure If the participant believes that his rights have been violated, he can file a complaint against: • The Customer; • The organizer or the single organizer of purchases; • Commission fee; • An expert; • A single operator. The complaint is submitted to the authorized body through the public procurement portal. There are clear deadlines for filing a complaint and its consideration, as well as mechanisms for suspending the procurement procedure until the complaint is considered.5. Additional information The full list of rules governing procurement, as well as the requirements for participants and the specifics of each method are available in: • Public Procurement website https://goszakup.gov.kz / • The Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated July 1, 2024 No. 106-VIII SAM "On Public Procurement"; • Order of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated October 9, 2024 No. 687.
