This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper garners information crucial to understanding business growth for new entrants and small businesses who contract with the federal government by utilizing publicly available contracting data from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) to track new entrants from 2001-2016. This information is then used to evaluate entrances, exits, and status changes among federal vendors with the purpose of comparing challenges faced by small businesses with those of larger ones. Measuring market trends over time and in multiple sectors shows how the challenges facing small businesses, such as market barriers to entry and imperfect competition, keep them from growing. The final results compare the survival rates between small and non-small new entrants contracting with the federal government and analyze the graduation rates for those small new entrants who grew in size during the observation period and survived after ten years. The study finds that around 40 percent of new entrants exit the market for federal contracts after three years, around 50-60 percent after five years, and only about one-fifth of new entrants remain in the federal contracting arena in the final year of observation. Across the six samples studied, thegraduation rates of small businesses consistently decrease.
Download or read book The Applied Law and Economics of Public Procurement written by Gustavo Piga and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores Public Procurement novelties and challenges in an interdisciplinary way. The process whereby the public sector awards contracts to companies for the supply of works, goods or services is a powerful instrument to ensure the achievement of new public goals as well as an efficient use of public funds. This book brings together the papers that have been presented during the "First Symposium on Public Procurement", a conference held in Rome last summer and to be repeated again yearly. As Public Procurement touches on many fields (law, economics, political science, engineering) the editors have used an interdisciplinary approach to discuss four main topics of interest which represent the four different parts in which this book is divided: Competitive dialogue and contractual design fostering innovation and need analysis, Separation of selection and award criteria, including exclusion of reputation indicators like references to experience, performance and CV’s from award criteria, Retendering a contract for breach of procurement rules or changes to contract (contract execution), Set-asides for small and medium firms, as in the USA system with the Small Business Act that reserves shares of tenders to SMEs only.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects on national welfare and market access of two important public procurement practices (discrimination and non-transparency) are analyzed with an eye to the ongoing discussions on procurement reform in the Doha Round. The analysis suggests that the welfare payoffs of adopting mechanisms that foster domestic competition and transparency are likely to be greater than the return to efforts to ban international discrimination. However improved transparency, which may well reduce corruption, is unlikely to also result in significant enhancements in market access. This in turn raises questions about the likely enforceability of a WTO agreement on transparency in procurement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Spending approximately 10 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP), governments are the biggest buyer of goods and services for many countries. Sound public procurement policies and practices are essential not only to good governance, but also to a strong and stable economy. On the other hand, due to the fact that more than 99 percent of all businesses are small in most of the countries, the involvement of small businesses are vital for the governments seeking to establish competition, innovation and value for money in the delivery of public goods and services. In fact, small businesses are likely to be disadvantage in production costs and lack in knowledge of available contract opportunities. Moreover, since it naturally would fit better to the small businesses, many of them serve to government contracts as subcontractor. In this thesis, I analyze public procurement auctions both empirically and theoretically, focusing on the role and impact of small businesses in government procurement market.
