📋 Tender Overview
The new legal framework that will govern the hiring of all public entities in the State was published. The Executive Branch promulgated the new General State Public Procurement Law, which will improve the use of public resources in government strategies to accelerate the closing of gaps in favor of citizens.
Law No. 32069, published yesterday in the Official Gazette El Peruano, is the result of collaborative work between the Executive Branch, who proposed the norm, and the General Congress of the Republic. The objective of this new legal framework is to encourage the procurement of goods, services and works by public entities to be more timely and efficient, facilitating the fulfillment of their objectives, in order to improve the quality of life of Peruvians.
The General Public Procurement Law contains measures to promote investment and avoid the stoppage of works through the inclusion of standardized engineering and construction contracts for international use, the simplification of works management and the strengthening of the preventive role of the Board of Dispute Prevention and Resolution.
Likewise, new acquisition mechanisms are established, such as public purchases of innovation and centralized purchases, as well as specific tools for the prevention and timely response to emergencies, including rehabilitation and reconstruction in the event of disasters.
The principle of Value for Money is also established, which prioritizes quality over price. This concept will allow State entities to maximize the value of the resources that the State allocates in each contract, in terms of efficiency, effectiveness and economy.
A significant aspect of the General Public Procurement Law is the strengthening of the role of the National Registry of Suppliers (RNP), which becomes a repository of relevant information. Entities and citizens in general will be able to access data that allows them to measure the performance of suppliers in the execution of contracts with the State.
The Law also establishes the Digital Platform for Public Procurement (PLADICOP) as a tool that guarantees the transparency of procurement, including minor purchases that will consolidate, among others, the RNP, the Electronic State Procurement System (SEACE) and the Catalogs. Electronics.
