The Swedish Competition Authority (SCA)
The Swedish Competition Authority is a state authority working in order to safeguard and promote competition and supervise public procurement in Sweden

New public procurement directives
• Reform proposals presented by the Commission 2011
• Ordinary legislative procedure• European Parliament decision 1st reading January 2014
• Council of Ministers adopted acts February 2014
• Three new directives; “classic”, “utilities” and
“concession”
• Directives implemented in national law by spring 2016
Objectives for the reform
1. Simpler/ more flexible procedures
3. Better access (SMEs, cross-border trade)
4. Sound procedures
2. Strategic use
5. Governance, professionalization of procurement
Strategic procurement
• Freedom of choice what to buy • Subject matter link maintained but extended (production
process, fair trade) • Use of labels • Life cycle costs (including measurable external costs) • Social criteria (protection of workers, employment of
handicapped, long term jobless, etc.)
DIRECTIVE 2014/24/EU
Recital 2
Public procurement plays a key role in the Europe 2020 strategy, as one of the market-based instruments to be used to achieve smart, sustainable and inclusive growth while ensuring the most efficient use of public funds.
New features on GPP (classic sector)
Aim - better integration of environmental considerations.
Horizontal clause:
– performance of public contracts have to comply with
environmental obligations (law)
– abnormally low tenders have to be rejected if suppliers do not
comply with environmental obligations
Labels
• Possible to refer to a specific label
• all criteria must relate to the subject matter of the contract
• developed in a transparent process
• based on objective and non-discriminating criteria and
available
• too little time to get a label equivalent labels or other
means of proof must be accepted
Production process
• Possible to consider all factors of the production, provision or trading
• Technical specification - factors that do not form part of the
material substance of the product• Ex: products manufactured /provided using energy-efficient
machines, production processes with low emissions etc.
• Award – possible to take into account these factors and
also to favour products with a fair trade origin, sustainable
timber origin etc.
Life-cycle costing
• All costs – including internal as well as external costs (emissions of greenhouse gases, extraction of raw materials)
• Monetary value can be determined and verified• No EU method exists – ok with own method
ex. clean vehicle directive• Not designed for one specific PP• Objective• Reasonable effort by enterprises
Environmental Management Schemes
• Can now also be used in procurement of goods• Reference to the European Union Eco
Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) or equal• Recognize equivalent certificates
Competitive procedure with negotiation• Replaces the negotiated procedure with prior publication –
substantial changes to conduct:
• Identification of “core” (minimum) non-negotiable
requirements; award criteria and weighting also non-
negotiable;
• All other aspects may be negotiated (e. g. quality,
quantities, commercial clauses; social, environmental,
innovative aspects)
