Abstract

This article analyzes the methods of selecting the most economically advantageous tender in public procurement. It has two objectives. Firstly, it evaluates the properties of the relative bid evaluation formulas used in practice for the criteria for selecting the bids. Through examples, it underlines that these bid evaluation formulas turn out to be rather arbitrary, manipulable, and do not reveal the preferences of public purchasers. The article then presents the steps for the construction of a scoring rule allowing to put bidders in competition in a transparent way by choosing for each criterion a bid evaluation formula and a weighting that reflect the preferences of the public buyer. Classification JEL: D44; D82; H57
