kasutusvaliku

Kasutusvaliku is a term used in Estonian primarily in the context of public procurement. It refers to the selection and choice of goods, works, or services by the public bodies in Estonia. The purpose of kasutusvaliku is to ensure that the goods, works, or services are procured in a transparent, fair, and cost-effective manner.

The process of kasutusvaliku involves several stages, including the preparation of a tender notice, the submission of tenders by potential providers, and the evaluation of tenders by the contracting authority. The procedure must comply with the requirements set out in the Public Procurement Act of Estonia, which aims to ensure the use of public funds in an efficient and transparent manner.

The Public Procurement Act sets out rules for the conduct of procurement procedures, including the threshold values above which a public contract must be advertised and the conditions under which contracts can be awarded without a public procurement procedure. In addition, the act establishes rules for the avoidance of conflicts of interest and for the protection of the confidentiality of bids.

Kasutusvaliku is an integral part of the public procurement system in Estonia, which is designed to promote fair competition, contain costs, and ensure that public bodies obtain value for money. The process is subject to audit and supervision to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Public Procurement Act and the EU public procurement directives.
