1. Can we have both? The challenges of efficiency outcomes in a public procurement system and reaching the strategic goals of procurementSašo Matas, Žan Oplotnik, Timotej Jagrič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This article explores the cost efficiency of public procurement procedures, techniques and strategic policies. Member States in the EU spend large sums of money on the procurement of various items, yet public procurement in the EU struggles with issues of competitiveness, efficiency and overlapping goals. The competitiveness and efficiency of various factors, procedures, techniques and sustainable measures employed in public procurement procedures that influence cost efficiency were examined in this study using data from Slovenian public procurement over the past eight years. The analysis employed a binary logit model that facilitates the efficient utilization of public funds and predicts substantial price reductions in public procurement procedures. The findings underscore the significance of transparency and open markets. The optimal cost-efficiency outcomes are achieved through combinations of transparent procedures and an undisclosed market environment during the tendering phase, complemented by less binding secondary procurement objectives. Conversely, procurement techniques that tend to disclose more information about competitors in the procurement process are found to be less cost-effective. Non-mandatory sustainable policies in public procurement tend to lead to better results in terms of cost efficiency than those imposed by an obligatory legal framework.

2. Enhancing knowledge on energy refurbishment of buildings and green procurement through living labsMaršenka Marksel, Nina Pavletič, Tomislav Letnik, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Buildings account for a significant portion of energy consumption and greenhouse gas
emissions, underscoring the urgent need for energy refurbishment and green procurement strategies.
This study explores the potential of Living Labs, a collaborative and user-centered approach, to
bridge knowledge gaps and foster innovation in these areas. The research employed a comprehensive
methodology, including stakeholder surveys and statistical analyses, to evaluate knowledge enhancement in various domains such as green policies, mentoring, funding possibilities, and green public
procurement. The results demonstrated statistically significant improvements in knowledge across
different fields and stakeholder groups. This study contributes to the objectives of the European
Green Deal by highlighting the role of Living Labs in advancing knowledge critical to achieving
energy efficiency and sustainability targets. Based on these findings, several recommendations are
proposed to further leverage the effectiveness of Living Labs in promoting the energy refurbishment
of buildings and green public procurement.

5. Measuring public procurement for innovation on the country level and the role of ICT supportKristina Detelj, Tanja Markovič-Hribernik, Igor Pihir, 2015, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Using of public procurement as a tool for promoting innovations has captured interest of many researchers in recent years. However, most of the research is focused on the impact of public procurement on the company's innovativeness. The article discusses the findings of the literature on this topic and proposes a model on how to transfer the concept from the company level to the level of the whole country. One of the biggest problems is unavailability of appropriate measures of this phenomenon, so the authors suggest that the concept of Public procurement for innovation can be approximated by participation of criterion of the most economically advantageous tender (MEAT). Implementation of this criterion in choosing the best offer can be supported and facilitated by using of ICT which can improve the efficiency of procurement process and enable more innovations.

6. (De)centralization of public procurement at the local level in the EUBoštjan Brezovnik, Žan Oplotnik, Borut Vojinović, 2015, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The so-called decentralization of public procurement in EU Member States is accepted as the most suitable design of the public procurement system, often justified by greater economic efficiency and by the possibility of boosting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, which act on the public procurement market as providers of goods, services and works. Despite the existence of highly decentralized public procurement systems which reflect the decentralization of administrative systems, especially after the recession, there is a stronger tendency for centralization of public procurement in the EU. The so-called aggregation of demand by contracting authorities can be done in order to achieve economies of scale, including lower prices and transaction costs as well as to improve and professionalize the management of procurement procedures (as highlighted in the Directive 2014/24/EU by the European Parliament and the EU Council). However, even in the context of public procurement centralization, local contracting authorities (i.e., public administration authorities and organizations) in Member States should be provided with a sufficiently wide range of possible (centralized) organizational structures and contractual (vertical and horizontal) public-public partnerships which will allow them to select the most suitable and most economically effective organizational structure for the execution of public procurement.
