RISKS IN THE SYSTEM OF PUBLIC PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT: IDENTIFICATION AND ASSESSMENT

This article presents an original methodology for assessing the cumulative risk of procurement in the state contract system. A classification of procurement risks is proposed, including time risk, corruption risk, financial risk, organizational and legal risks and technical risks specific to each procurement entity (customer, contractor and consumer) at each stage of the procurement process (procurement planning, procurement implementation, monitoring, audit and control of procurement), including the allocation of procurement risks before the conclusion of the contract and during the execution of the contract. The risk assessment methodology includes a quantitative assessment of the private risks of all participants at different stages of procurement and the total risk of procurement using matrix and point approaches. The verification of the methodology showed the ability to determine the comparative overall risk in the field of procurement and bottlenecks both in the activities of a particular customer and contractor, and in the industry and the procurement system as a whole. The use of classification and risk assessment methodology in the field of public procurement makes it possible to develop a risk-based approach to management in the russian contract system, which is conceptually based on the concentration of limited state resources in areas of maximum risk and at the same time reducing the administrative burden in areas of reduced risk.
