The government removed a number of wartime procurement restrictions

The Government of Ukraine adopted a resolution on the specifics of conducting public procurement during martial law. From now on, purchases can be made in the Prozorro system according to a new procedure.

From now on, tenders in Prozorro can be conducted with an offer from one participant – this should increase the number of successful results in the electronic system, while leaving the opportunity for open competition in the auction.

At the same time, conducting open tenders according to the new procedure provides an opportunity for suppliers to challenge the terms and results of the tender at the Antimonopoly Commission.

The resolution takes into account the peculiarities and limitations of procurement during martial law.
