Utilization olEU structural funds in croatian healthcare zhrough the public procurement procedure on the axample of Clinical hospital Dubrava in Zagreb

Javna nabava od ključne je važnosti u strategiji razvoja država članica EU jer se radi o jednom od instrumenata utemeljenih na tržištu koji se koriste za postizanje pametnog i održivog rasta, a kojima bi se trebalo osigurati transparentno i učinkovito korištenje javnih sredstava. Cilj rada je ustanoviti značaj procedure javne nabave u realizaciji EU projekta. Analiza postupka javne nabave u Kliničkoj bolnici Dubrava ukazuje na značaj procedure javne nabave za uspješnost prijave i realizacije EU projekta te najčešće implikacije tijekom njegove provedbe. Postupak nadziru javno pravna tijela koja nadziru i potrošnju javnih sredstava. Vezano uz javnu nabavu, hrvatski zakon prati trendove zakonodavstva Europske Unije iako rezultati analize ukazuju na mnoge nepravilnosti između samog postupka javne nabave i provedbe projekta. U cilju ve6e učinkovitosti i transparentnosti u provođenju postupaka, nužno je otklanjanje administrativnih i tehničkih implikacija, koje su povezane s problemom nedostatne administrativne sposobnosti te nedovoljno definiranih pojedinih dijelova Zakona o javnoj nabavi.Public procurement has a key importance in the development strategy ofthe EU countries as it is one of the market based instruments used for achieving smart and sustainable growth, and which should ensure transparent and efficient use of public funds. The goal of this graduate thesis is to establish the importance of public procurement procedures in the Etl project realization. The analysis of the public procurement procedure at the Clinical Hospital Dubrava shows the importance of public procurement procedure for successfui application and realization of EU project, and the most common implications during its implementa:ion. The procedure is supervised by public lega1 authorities that aiso supervise spending ofpub. ic funds. Regarding public procurement, Croatian law follows the trends of EU legislation, alth ough the results of the analysis show many irregularities between public procument procedure tself and the implanentation of the project. In order to increase efficiency and transparentry in the implementation of procedures, it is necessary to eliminate administrative and techical implications which are related to the problem of insufficient administrative competence and some insufficiently defined parts of the Public Procurement Law
