Government procurement is a powerful tool for influencing the functioning of the national market, since, according to research, the share of government consumption is up to a quarter of gross domestic product with variations, depending on the natural-territorial and organizational-economic conditions. Most countries of the world have their own sustainable development strategies, including a well-considered policy on public green procurement. It is politically important to support the stated direction by creating an example for other sectors of the economy, setting specific guidelines for the business and defining clear rules of the game in ensuring the movement towards sustainable economic development and growth.
