Approximately 97% of purchasing organizations are satisfied with the e-catalog services (we conduct surveys regularly).
Contracting authorities (buyers) can purchase standardized goods, services, and works through the CPO LT electronic catalog or by assigning procurements to CPO LT specialists.
A public or private legal entity is considered a purchasing organization if all or part of its activities are specifically intended for public interests of a non-commercial and non-industrial nature.
Procurement centralization is the organization of procurement where a specific purchasing organization (procurement executor) conducts procurements or concludes procurement contracts for the benefit of other procurement executors. Procurement centralization includes not only the execution of procurements in accordance with legal requirements but also the creation of procurement process strategies, management, administration, and many other aspects of the procurement process.
CPO LT performs all this to:
Procurements through CPO LT are more transparent, faster, and more efficient.
