Increasing Productivity in Public Procurement

The objective of Hansel Ltd’s operations is to produce savings for the Finnish Government by putting the framework agreements for goods and services out to tender.

The tasks and roles of the central procurement unit are defined in the Public Procurement Act and in the State Procurement Strategy.

Through responsibly run operations, Hansel Ltd promotes high-quality procurement and the equitable, non-discriminatory treatment of suppliers in the tendering process.

The Public Procurement Act specifies that the objective of the central procurement unit is to promote open competition and to organise tendering processes in a way that fosters efficient market operations. Moreover, the company’s tendering procedure includes an evaluation of the effects of the procedure on the markets.
