SIGMA Paper No. 29: Centralised and Decentralised Public Procurement (2000)
This paper reviews the experience of selected EU countries. The establishment in many central and eastern European countries of public procurement offices that are not responsible for actual purchasing but set national policy, organise training, draft legislation, etc., represents a great change from the earlier central monopoly purchasing systems.

SIGMA Paper No. 28: A Comparison of the EC Procurement Directives and the UNCITRAL Model Law (2000)
