Under current regulations, the body may check auction procedures to award contracts financed with public money, including non-reimbursable European funds, only if the estimated value of the contract exceeds EUR125,000 (for service contracts) and EUR4.8 million (for construction contracts).
Auction checkup procedures will be simplified and the checkup authority’s notes will be included in a single document, namely the report to the public procurement auction.
According to the Government, the contracting party will be able to correct likely irregularities based on the respective notes. The contracting parties might face fines ranging between 40,000 lei (about EUR9,590) and RON100,000 if they disregard UCVAP notes. (EUR1=RON4.1719)
