“…Erridge (2000) reported on lower costs that can be achieved in the wake of professional training cooperation, that is, he expressly classified this mode of cooperation as a practical example of joint procurement. Kim et al (2012) identified cooperating and opportunistic interorganisational forms of behaviour. Vogler et al (2022a) studied pharmaceutical procurement and identified lower prices, improved bargaining power, improved governance and enhanced transparency among other advantages; so, they concluded that centralised pharmaceutical procurement (CPP) can be an effective policy tool if implemented wisely.…”

When analysing centralised public procurement models and solutions from the public administration point of view, attention needs to be paid to the specific features of public procurement as well as the institutional characteristics of the major central procurement organisations. In this paper, central procurement organisations in 11 European countries were compared based on interviews according to their activities, market positions and institutional characteristics. We shall address the issue of efficiency and stability of organisational structures by comparing the practice of the Central and Eastern European (CEE) and non-CEE European Countries. This comparison analyses the differences of the countries’ centralised public procurement structures and reveals the diversity of analytic criteria, underlining that the legal regulatory background to public procurement is not necessarily predominant in determining specific features and characteristics. The stability and market-oriented characteristics of a centralised public procurement system have an impact on the innovativeness of central purchasing bodies (CPBs) and on the development of their service provider nature, which should be taken into account by the CEE countries with a less-developed public procurement culture.
