Motivation II

Some authorities overuse non-competitive procedure

Criticism? So what, law allows it …Savings? No need, the budget has been set.

For public entity, there is no other motivating factor besides political responsibility.

zIndex - Core idea

EU Directive and Procurement laws give authority wide borders to operateThere are guides, white papers defining „best practice“ within these bordersLet’s measure the deviation from best practice!

zIndex – why?

Point out most and least efficient authoritiesMotivate them to compete, do better Foster discussion:

What is the best practice anyway?

zIndex – how we rate

We rate each institution over period of timeCurrently we rate all cities over 2011-2013Why 3 years? Elections time span minus one

Computed over Procurement dataBudget dataBusiness registry data

10 main criteria, indicating good practice

What we rate #3 : procurement results

Supplier rating: Unknown ownersProcurement share on total turnoverRed flags (no employees, ROI 100% and higher..)

Market concentration – same supplier winning over and over againPoor data quality (prices, suppliers not well identified)

zIndex – major issues

Data – never ending jobCollect, clean, merge, process..Quality – we have better data than state, still not good enough (once you want to rate..)

ComparabilityInstitution type, sizeComposition of procured goods / services
