The new procurement code.

The new Procurement Code has significantly innovated the entire public procurement system, with important consequences for companies that deal with the Public Administration. This was underlined by the president of Confcooperative Fvg, Daniele Castagnaviz: “We welcomed with interest – explains Castagnaviz – the inclusion in the new Procurement Code of the link between public tenders and more representative collective labor agreements. A choice that at the same time allows you to defend workers’ wages and families’ purchasing power; to push companies to discuss aspects other than the mere reduction of labor costs, shifting the terrain of competition to aspects linked to innovation, the quality of the products and services offered. And to eliminate the possibility that the Public Administration pursues the sole criterion of mere savings in the choice of entrusted companies. As cooperation we are committed to promoting full knowledge and application of the rules of the new Code precisely to protect businesses, workers and citizens“.

The issue remains, crucial for Confcooperative, of full application: «Now it is important that among the Public Administrations there are full dissemination of the provisions of the Code for the adjustment of procurement prices to increases in employment contracts: this is the only way to protect the professionals working in many public sectors”, comments Castagnaviz.
