THE ADVANTAGES OF INSTITUTIONS AND ENTERPRISES OF THE PENAL SYSTEM IN THE PROCUREMENT
The article deals with the mechanism of providing advantages to institutions and enterprises of the penal system in the procurement of goods, works and services for state and municipal needs. The authors analyzed the legal nature of pre-emptive rights in procurement, highlighted the conditions for the provision of benefits to institutions and enterprises of the penal system. Based on the analysis of 100 procurement procedures posted on the official website of the unified information system on the Internet , numerous violations of the rights and legitimate interests of institutions and enterprises of the penitentiary system were identified, as a result of which their participation in competitive procedures in order to expand the sale of products is virtually impossible. Empirical data obtained in the course of the study allowed us to make a reasonable conclusion about the need to improve the mechanism of realization of the advantages of this category of procurement participants. In order to increase the effectiveness of the participation of institutions and enterprises of the penal correction system in procurement, proposals have been prepared to amend the current legislation on the contract system.
