Abstract

This article analyses the development of the public procurement market in the Czech Republic in the period from 2008 to the present in connection with the adoption of new legislation relating to the Act on Public Procurement no. 137/2006. This text evaluates the objectives of legislative changes (transparency, increase in competition powers and effective price enforcement) exa-mined from the viewpoint of selected parameters of the procurement market. It was found that the transparency in terms of reducing the use of the restricted procedure of public procurement improved and the share of public contracts conducted under the new Act on Public Procurement increased immediately after new legislation. This article positively evaluates a drop in one-offer contracts and continuous tendency towards lower price levels of the public procurement. This analysis includes identification of the impact of an accelerated drawdown of funds from EU programs in connection with the end of the program period in 2015. Based on the analysis's conclusions, there are obvious limits of the positive impact of the new legislation.
