Public Procurement and Natural Disasters: journal article

Lessons from Croatia

Marko Turudić

European Procurement & Public Private Partnership Law Review, Volume 15 (2020), Issue 2, Page 162 - 167

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken lives and endangered health all across the EU, and has had an profound effect on all aspects of economic activity across the Member States. Unfortunately, the pandemic isn't the only natural disaster affecting Croatia today; on 22 March 2020, Zagreb and its surrounding counties were struck by the strongest recorded earthquake since 1880. Croatian Government has implemented economic measures to mitigate the consequences of these two natural disasters. Two of those measures directly affect public procurement; the suspension of the majority of public procurement procedures and the Draft ‘Zagreb Rebuild Act’, which aims to suspend the Public Procurement Act in the procurement of materials, services and works for the Zagreb earthquake rebuild effort. This article aims to analyse the validity and consequences of those measures. Keywords: COVID-19, Croatia, Zagreb earthquake, suspension of public procurement


Who’s to Blame for the Public Procurement Reform in Croatia? journal article

Ana Hećimović

European Procurement & Public Private Partnership Law Review, Volume 13 (2018), Issue 1, Page 48 - 55

Europeanisation is a process whereby EU institutions and policies influence national institutions and policies within the various Member States. The purpose of this paper is to explore whether the Croatian public procurement reform in 2011 was caused by the European Union, domestic variables or by diffusion and interdependence of both. The paper argues that the Croatian public procurement reform was caused by diffusion and interdependence between both the European Union and national institutions.
