Yes, if the estimated value of the non-public low-value procurement contract is not less than 15,000 EUR (excluding VAT) and the goods, services, or works available meet the needs of the contracting authority, and the contracting authority cannot acquire the goods, services, or works in a more efficient manner using the allocated funds rationally.
The contracting authority should first clearly identify the need and conduct a market price analysis based on it. As one of the measures, you can use the data of completed orders published in the CPO LT catalog (CPO LT reports), which indicate the winning prices.

The contracting authority critically evaluates the justification of its requirements and whether the requirements that are not included in the CPO LT specifications or the specifications do not fully meet them are necessary for the proper functioning of the contracting authority, and accordingly makes a decision regarding procurement through CPO LT.
No, it cannot. The contracting authority can only choose from the price and quality proposal evaluation criteria set by CPO LT for a specific object. Therefore, before starting procurement through CPO LT, it must familiarize itself with the price and quality ratio proposal evaluation criteria set by CPO LT, assess the need for the qualitative value they create for the contracting authority itself, and the appropriateness of paying possibly more for it.
The procurement contract project is prepared by CPO LT. Contract forms can be found and reviewed in the description of each module's procurement in the CPO LT electronic catalog.
It is not mandatory, but recommended. Timely and properly conducted "homework" helps the contracting authority determine the maximum funds needed for procurement, select the comparative weights of the price and quality evaluation criteria, and familiarize itself with and assess the most important contract execution conditions.
Well-conducted market analysis before procurement announcement, i.e., when the client forms the order in the CPO LT catalog, it is important to have the necessary information and documents to submit for procurement execution.
Accurately formulate the need, interview market participants in any convenient way, review statistical information published by CPO LT (if available), review previous procurement prices, and search for information online.
Complaints received from suppliers regarding the execution of procurement procedures in the CPO LT catalog are examined by the complaints review commission established by CPO LT.
Suppliers can submit inquiries regarding procurement conditions using the communication tools of CPO IS when procurement procedures are conducted in the CPO LT catalog. If necessary, CPO LT contacts the contracting authority to respond to the received inquiry for additional information provision.
If the order has not yet been publicly announced and is not visible to suppliers, promptly contact the module consultant (contacts are listed in the Catalog section) by phone or email with a request to cancel the procurement. If the order has already been announced and is visible to suppliers, an official letter must be prepared and a signed electronic copy sent to info@cpo.sprendimai.cloud. The letter must specify the procurement number and the reason for cancellation. CPO LT, after reviewing the submitted request, makes a decision regarding order cancellation and informs potential suppliers who were sent information about the order in the electronic catalog. Once the order is executed, procedures are no longer canceled, and bilateral relations between the supplier and the client arise.
