On the supplier portal, the city concluded 194 thousand transactions with small and medium-sized enterprises. This was announced on December 28, 2023 by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

The Metropolitan Supplier Portal opens up opportunities for small business representatives: they can work directly with the city, which guarantees stable profit and product demand. It is from them that Moscow purchases approximately 84 percent of goods, works and services on the resource. These are construction, medical and household goods, stationery, household appliances and communications, maintenance and repair services, and so on. In 2023 alone, 194 thousand contracts were signed in the amount of 36.6 billion rubles. For comparison, in 2022, 186.7 thousand transactions worth 35.5 billion rubles were carried out, - said Vladimir Efimov.

Suppliers from different regions offer their products, works and services on the platform. So, over the year, small and medium-sized enterprises from the capital signed 127 thousand contracts with the city and delivered products worth 23.8 billion rubles. 35.3 thousand contracts for 6.6 billion rubles were signed with suppliers from the Moscow region. They are followed by entrepreneurs from St. Petersburg, with whom they signed 3.3 thousand contracts worth more than 600 million rubles. Also among the leaders of the company from the Kaluga and Tambov regions - a total of 2.5 thousand contracts worth over 400 million were signed with them.

Representatives of small and medium-sized businesses make up more than 90 percent of Supplier Portal users. Micro-enterprises are actively involved in procurement: Moscow customers signed more than 166 thousand contracts with them in a year in the amount of 30.3 billion rubles. The number of transactions with small enterprises exceeded 24 thousand - they supplied the city with products worth 5.6 billion rubles. The amount of purchases from medium-sized businesses amounted to more than 700 million rubles - such companies signed about three thousand contracts with the city, - said Kirill Purtov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

{{quote 'The portal has useful and convenient services that allow you to optimize procurement procedures and ensure efficient work on the platform. One of the important tools of the portal is the bot of automatic bets. It allows suppliers to participate in several quotation sessions at the same time. Before the start of the mini-auction, entrepreneurs set the minimum amount to which they are ready to reduce the cost of the contract for the supply of products, and after the bot independently makes progressive bets to the specified price. At the same time, the use of the bot does not prevent other suppliers from making their proposals, its task is to automate the bidding process during the auction. With the help of the bot, suppliers can optimize resources and actively take part in procedures on the portal, and the service gives customers a decrease in the initial contract price during quotation sessions and as a result provides a decent level of competition, - said Roman Urnyshev, Deputy of the Moscow Department of Information Technologies. }}

To support users in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, representative offices are opened, where specialists train to work on the site, answer questions from customers and suppliers, hold face-to-face meetings, collect proposals for finalizing the functionality and solving technical problems.

Possibility of joint procurement

The capital's customers have the opportunity to conduct joint purchases on the Supplier Portal through quotation sessions. This will allow them to save time and money, said on August 10, 2023, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

A quotation session is a mini-auction, the participants of which compete with each other, consistently reducing the initial maximum price of the contract. Such procedures last three, six or 24 hours. The lowest bidder wins.

Quotation sessions allow you to save budget funds on small volume purchases. In the first quarter of 2023 alone, Moscow published 47.8 thousand mini-auctions and saved 1.5 billion rubles by reducing the initial price. Now, through joint quotation sessions, customers will be able to combine their needs for goods, works and services and conduct larger purchases. This will attract even more suppliers and increase competition among them. At the same time, entrepreneurs will be able to increase sales by receiving large orders at once, - said Vladimir Efimov.

To hold a joint quotation session, customers must be from one subject of the Russian Federation, and goods must correspond to one category. At first, the opportunity to conduct joint purchases was implemented for other regions. Later, the functionality was finalized for the features and volume of purchases of Moscow and is now also available to metropolitan customers.

In order to hold a joint mini-auction, you need to specify the format "Joint Purchase" when choosing a purchase type. The organizer can invite one or more customers and wait for confirmation. Then, for each of them, you need to specify the name and quantity of the goods and publish the quotation session. All customers must be registered on the Supplier Portal so that the organizer of the procedure can add them as participants, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy.

The possibility of joint procurement for Moscow customers was realized thanks to the constant improvement of the information interaction of the Supplier Portal with the Unified Automated Trading Information System (EAIST).

To find joint purchases, it is enough for suppliers to set the appropriate filter in the "Quotation sessions" section in the unified procurement register, here you can also set up notifications by mail or in your personal account for the all-Russian product classifier by type of economic activity (OKPD2), customer or region. This will make it more convenient for entrepreneurs to find large orders and sell their products faster, - said Roman Urnyshev, deputy head of the Moscow City Information Technology Department.

Contract Execution Registry Availability

The interface of the entrepreneur's personal account has been updated on the supplier portal - now the register of contract execution is available in it. This will allow suppliers to quickly track the status of execution under concluded contracts, which means it is more efficient to build work with the customer. This was announced on July 20, 2023 by the Moscow Department of Information Technologies (DIT).

Previously, documents on the execution of contracts (consignment notes, acts of acceptance, acts of work or services performed, invoices) were loaded along with electronic contracts and it was often difficult for the supplier to track their status. The complete list of closing documents is now available in the "My Contracts" section of the "Executions" tab.

This section is designed for easier navigation of electronic versions of the organization. Displays the execution cards for the entire time, each of which contains the number, status, creation date, contract amount, and other information. Filters and sorting by register are also available to the supplier for effective work with documents, and if necessary, you can upload and save information about versions in Excel format, - said Roman Urnyshev, Deputy Head of the Moscow Department of Information Technologies.

The Contract Execution Register also has an Action Required filter. By selecting it, the entrepreneur can see the current status of those documents on which comments were received and where it is necessary to correct errors or make adjustments to the volume of selected items.

As of July 2023, customers from 40 regions of Russia and over 310 thousand suppliers from all over the country are working at the site, the product catalog on the platform has more than two million unique names. About 1.5 thousand contracts are concluded on the portal every day.

In addition to the capital, in the first half of the year, customers from the Perm Territory, Yamalo-Nenets and Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Districts, Novgorod and Pskov Regions were most often purchased on the resource. These regions carried out 46.2 thousand procedures and purchased goods, works and services from entrepreneurs in the amount of 6.1 billion rubles, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

The platform is constantly being updated. For example, in 2023, the registration page was redesigned, and now this procedure takes less than five minutes. The Department of Information Technology noted that thanks to the revision of the registration page, it became visually clearer: for this, specialists completely changed the interface and logic of filling out the electronic form for the new user. In addition, entrepreneurs no longer need to wait for confirmation of registration with a password by e-mail, now the password can be set independently.

In addition, the search in the product catalog has been modernized: it provides hints with links to product cards, can recognize typos and transliteration, and users can apply filters and characteristics of the necessary items for a more accurate search. Also, a section has begun on the resource, in which requests for commercial proposals from metropolitan customers are published. This simplifies the calculation of the initial price of future purchases on the platform, and makes it possible for suppliers to predict demand and plan participation in tenders.

More than 1.5 thousand contracts are concluded on the resource every day, and the catalog of goods, works and services exceeds 1.7 million units.

Ability for individuals and legal entities to order goods

Individuals and legal entities can now order goods, works, and services from the vendor portal. This was announced on August 22, 2022 by the Moscow Department of Information Technologies (DIT).

Any registered user with a confirmed electronic signature can act as a buyer.

Commercial enterprises and self-employed entrepreneurs will be able to develop their business and find reliable suppliers, and consumers will be able to use the resource as a full-fledged marketplace.

The order is created in a demand-based purchasing format, during the purchase, the buyer collects vendor quotations and selects who to contract with.

The emerging functionality of the portal is a response to a request from users, including more and more self-employed and individual entrepreneurs who are ready to participate in small-scale purchases, including among themselves. To do this, the function of obtaining the status of "customer" and the ability to publish purchases according to needs for all registered users with a confirmed electronic signature were added to the personal account. Now commercial organizations and citizens can not only act as suppliers for state institutions, but also buy goods, including for personal needs. This is not only convenient, but also profitable: thanks to the function of tracking the dynamics of the price change available in the card of each product, the buyer can compare prices with other trading platforms and find the best offer, - said the head of the Moscow Department of Information Technology Eduard Lysenko.

To buy the desired product, you need to select it in the catalog and add it to the cart, as on any marketplace. Then the service will automatically check for a valid electronic signature, after which the user will be assigned the status of the customer. You will also need to specify the quantity of the item, its specifications and delivery dates, and then publish the purchase. After receiving offers from potential suppliers, the user will be able to independently select any of them.

Purchases according to needs since 2018 allow customers from the regions to purchase the necessary products at favorable prices from reliable and proven suppliers. Now not only state organizations, but also commercial companies and individuals will be able to carry out such purchases. The portal employs about 270 thousand suppliers from all over the country, and the catalog of goods, works and services exceeds 1.7 million items, which indicates the demand for the service, its convenience and reliability, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy.

Joint procurement function

On August 3, 2022, the Moscow Department of Information Technology announced that, at the request of regional users, the joint procurement function was launched on the Supplier Portal. It will allow customers from the same region to combine several similar small volume purchases into one. This option is valid only for regional purchases.

As reported, the possibility of combining small-volume purchases has been implemented for quotation sessions - mini-auctions, the participants of which consistently reduce the initial maximum contract price. The quantity of the step is determined by the sold-to party when publishing the purchase. It can be 0.5 percent or one percent of the initial maximum contract price. According to the results of the purchase, the supplier who made the lowest bet wins, that is, he offered his goods, work or service at the lowest price. The main advantages of such a mechanism are transparency and efficiency. The quotation session lasts three, six or 24 hours, and the conclusion of a contract based on its results takes place on average in two to three days. About 500 quotation sessions are published daily on the portal. The conditions for their holding are approved in the regulations of the Portal.

A joint purchase contains all the item names that customers need at once, and the total order amount for the supplier is the final unit value multiplied by the quantity. The ability to hold quotation sessions in this format is beneficial for everyone: customers can combine their needs and quickly find a supplier, while receiving a lower price, and suppliers can increase sales. This is especially true for remote regions where there are difficulties with transport accessibility. noted Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Government of Moscow, Head of the Department of Information Technologies

To make a joint purchase, the customer needs to find other buyers who need to merge to find a supplier. For example, if a school needs to purchase desks by the beginning of the school year, when establishing a quotation session, it can act as an organizer and offer to participate in the purchase of other educational institutions in its region that need goods from the same category. So, it will be more profitable for suppliers to take a large order for execution, and customers will save the budget.

We are constantly working on updating and developing the Supplier Portal, launching services, connecting regions. According to the results of the first half of the year, the volume of regional purchases on the resource amounted to 20.5 billion rubles, and the share - 48.9 percent. The possibility of publishing joint purchases of a small volume by customers from one region will expand the geography of the Portal's work, attract customers, provide sales markets to suppliers, and also contribute to the development of entrepreneurship and import-substituting industries. told Ivan Shcherbakov, Head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy

The quotation session is created in the usual format, and when choosing a purchase type, you need to select the Joint Purchase format. The organizer can invite one or more customers from their region, wait for confirmation from them, specify the name and quantity of goods for each customer, and publish the purchase.

Customers participating in the quotation session must be registered in the portal so that the purchasing organizer can add them as participants.

During the quotation session, suppliers make their unit quotations, but the percentage of price reduction during the bidding will be recalculated based on the unit price multiplied by the quantity. The supplier who gives the minimum price will be the winner, and he will conclude a contract with each customer separately.

The volume of B2B transactions on the supplier portal exceeded four billion rubles

In July 2019, commercial organizations were able to place purchases on the Supplier Portal and offer their goods and services to each other (B2B deals). Since that moment, about 9.6 thousand such purchases have been published on the resource, the potential volume of which is estimated at more than 4.2 billion rubles. This was announced on July 30, 2022 by the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy, according to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

The number of B2B transactions on the Supplier Portal is constantly growing. If in incomplete 2019 year 356 such purchases were placed on the site, then in 2020 - already 3.4 thousand, and in 2021 - 3.6 thousand. In the first six months of 2022 alone, commercial organizations published 2.2 thousand purchases. The total potential volume of all these transactions exceeds 4.2 billion rubles. At the same time, the share of Moscow in purchases published in three years is 36 percent, the rest falls on the regions, - said Vladimir Efimov.

At the end of July 2022, the Portal is used by state customers from 39 regions of Russia and suppliers from all over the country. More than 90 percent of all entrepreneurs on the resource are representatives of small and medium-sized businesses, to which the platform provides a guaranteed sales market and equal conditions for participation in small-volume purchases.

The Supplier Portal is a versatile and reliable tool for small volume procurement. As of July 2022, 52.7 thousand customers and 269.1 thousand suppliers were registered on it. In the procurement of B2B format, the Portal acts as a showcase for which applications are received from organizations from all over the country. The account on the resource allows entrepreneurs to participate in purchases on different trading floors without additional registration, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

He also added that most often commercial organizations purchase computers and components, order the services of freight transportation and equipment repair.

The supplier portal continues to develop its services for entrepreneurs: in 2022, together with the Department of Information Technologies of the city of Moscow, a section of the platform was launched - the Platform for Commodity Cooperation of the Regions. It helps consumers to purchase the necessary import-substituting products, and manufacturers to find partners, suppliers of components and raw materials.

Ability to select another performer in case of failure of the winner

The supplier portal has become even more convenient for customers. Now, if the winner of the purchase for some reason refused to conclude a contract, the customer can choose another performer from the rest of the participants in the procedure. Previously, in such cases, the purchase had to be carried out again. It was an extra waste of time for both customers and suppliers. This was announced on July 6, 2022 by the Moscow Department of Information Technologies (DIT).

We are talking about needs procurement. As part of this procedure, the customer publishes a list of goods, works or services that he needs. It sets a period during which entrepreneurs can send their proposals. Purchasing according to needs assumes that the customer has the opportunity to independently select any of the suppliers, and not the one who named the minimum price. The winner is the supplier whose conditions are most appropriate to the stated needs.

This format is suitable when saving money is not of paramount importance. There are other types of purchases, such as quotation sessions (the executor is assigned automatically at the lowest bid price) and purchases from a single supplier (a procedure in which a contract is concluded with a specific company or businessman without formally selecting a supplier).

When all rates during the procurement are announced according to the needs and the customer stopped at a specific supplier, the two parties have up to nine working days to agree on the terms of the contract. However, sometimes a company, an individual entrepreneur or self-employed, who responded to the purchase, do not confirm their intention to cooperate. Now, if two working days pass from the moment the winner is announced, and he never got in touch, the customer will receive a notification about this in the portal's personal account.

The function of selecting a supplier in purchasing according to requirements was implemented according to the proposals of regional authorized bodies. It will allow customers not to re-purchase in the event of the winner's refusal, but to transfer the obligations under the contract to another participant. This will significantly save users time when working with the platform, - said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Department of Information Technologies.

To quickly choose another performer, it is enough to open your purchase on demand and in the "Selection of proposals" section to see what other bets other entrepreneurs made. Next, click on the "Contract" button in the quotation line of the supplier who, in the opinion of the customer, is also suitable for work, service or delivery of goods.

The supplier portal is a reliable and convenient tool that provides a guaranteed sales market for entrepreneurs working on this resource. As of July 2022, the number of businessmen using the portal exceeds 268 thousand. 90 percent of them are representatives of small and medium-sized businesses. The portal is regularly updated and refined, its capabilities are expanded taking into account the wishes of users. The demand for the site is confirmed by statistics: in the first five months of 2022, 234 thousand purchases were carried out with a total volume of 36.3 billion rubles, while the share of regional customers was about 50 percent, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy.

Appearance of the commercial cooperation site

The commodity cooperation platform on the Supplier Portal will allow manufacturers from Russia and friendly countries to sell their products in digital format, and buy them for consumers. This was announced on June 17, 2022 by the Department of Information Technologies of Moscow (DIT) with the words of the head of the Department for Competition Policy, which is part of the Complex of Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations of the city of Moscow (KEPiZO) Complex of Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations of the city, Ivan Shcherbakov.

The commodity cooperation platform will solve two blocks of problems: firstly, it will become a platform for interested consumers to purchase directly from manufacturers of import-substituting and original domestic products, as well as goods from friendly countries. Secondly, the resource will help suppliers find the necessary raw materials, manufacturers and partners. As of June 2022, there are 266 thousand of them from all over the country on the Portal. Only registration and enhanced qualified electronic signature are required to work on site. This service works in full, for registration it is enough to go to the corresponding section, - said Ivan Shcherbakov.

He noted that based on the proposals of manufacturers, a catalog of domestic and affordable foreign products will be created, as well as a list of goods whose production can be deployed in the Russian Federation.

The city's already developed online resource for interaction between customers and suppliers made it possible to launch a commodity cooperation platform on its basis as soon as possible. It is important that this is not just a product showcase, but a whole built-up business process. Information about manufacturers and their production sites is subject to mandatory verification, so that the consumer can be sure of the manufacturer's integrity. In addition, the service has created a register of manufacturers, which is based on verified open data from federal departments, supplemented with information about goods indicated by manufacturers, "said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Information Technology Department.

He added that for one need, all possible proposals from various manufacturers are selected. Thus, the consumer can choose the most suitable product for him.

According to the head of the Department of Investment and Industrial Policy of Moscow, Vladislav Ovchinsky, the site will be useful to both metropolitan and regional industrial enterprises.

Over three thousand enterprises operate in the capital, which, taking into account the course towards maximum import substitution, need proven and stable suppliers in order to close the needs for various products on time, as well as load their capacities in full. However, I note that it will be useful to everyone, including industrial enterprises from other regions. On the one hand, they will also be able to select the necessary goods for themselves, and on the other, they will be able to find new sales channels, "he said.

The service will work free of charge. In turn, the Site support service will quickly resolve technical issues and receive advice on working with the resource around the clock.

The supplier portal has made it easier for entrepreneurs to draw up documents on the execution of contracts

A new API service has been launched on the Supplier Portal, which has made it easier for suppliers, primarily large companies, to provide a universal transfer document (UPD). Read more here.

2021

Conclusion of 133.6 thousand contracts for the supply of various goods and products

In 2021, on the Supplier Portal, Moscow customers signed 133.6 thousand contracts for the supply of various goods and products, of which 98.8 thousand contracts for goods produced by Russian enterprises, the rest are mainly in China. This was announced on March 28, 2022 by the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy, according to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

In 2021, Moscow customers signed 133.6 thousand contracts for 22.1 billion rubles for the supply of various goods and products. Of these, the overwhelming majority, 74 percent of contracts, for the purchase of domestic products. These are construction, stationery, medical supplies, electronics, clothing, equipment and furniture. In 2022, the burden on Russian manufacturers will increase, but support measures and stimulation of domestic industry will increase the resources of our enterprises, - said the deputy mayor.

Vladimir Efimov added that the remaining part of the goods is produced mainly in China.

Most of the contracts - 21.5 thousand for 5.8 billion rubles - were concluded for the supply of construction goods. 1.4 billion rubles (15.5 thousand contracts) were signed for the supply of household appliances and household goods, and stationery and paper products were purchased for 759.5 million rubles (11.5 thousand contracts).

The characteristic "Country of origin" is one of the mandatory for creating CTE cards. Analysis of executed contracts on the Supplier Portal shows that customers overwhelmingly prefer domestic products. You can check information on the supply of purchased goods of Russian production as part of the transfer of contract documentation and closing documents, which is implemented through the electronic document management system launched on the portal in 2021, - said the Minister of the Government of Moscow, head of the Department of Information Technologies of the city of Moscow Eduard Lysenko.

He also recalled that from the beginning of 2022, entrepreneurs can download the catalog of the Supplier Portal in the JSON format, which allows them to analyze product niches in more detail and calculate the competitive cost for offers.

The amount of contracts concluded with Russian manufacturers amounted to 14.5 billion rubles. Russian-made goods are absolutely competitive and that is why they make up two-thirds of the city's small-volume purchases for 2021. Domestic manufacturers offer both original goods of high quality and analogues of foreign products at acceptable prices, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

For the supply of medical goods of domestic manufacture, 10.5 thousand contracts were concluded in the amount of 931 million rubles, and for the supply of electronics, office equipment, communications and software - 7.5 thousand contracts for one billion rubles.

The top 10 product areas of Russian production also included energy equipment, lighting fixtures, fuels and lubricants, furniture, clothing, including uniforms, shoes, haberdashery, hats, food products and goods for cultural and art institutions.

38% increase in procurement volume

In 2021, the volume of purchases on the Supplier Portal amounted to more than 84 billion rubles, which is 38 percent more than in 2020. This was announced on February 3, 2022 by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

"Suppliers from all regions of the country and customers from 39 constituent entities of the Russian Federation work on the Portal. Last year, the volume of purchases between them increased from 61.1 billion rubles in 2020 to 84.2 billion rubles in 2021. We are constantly developing the portal, the increase in the volume of transactions is facilitated by the convenience of working with it - the interaction of the parties takes place exclusively in electronic format, a large selection of services, goods and counterparties is presented, " told Deputy Mayor Vladimir Efimov

According to him, budget savings from regional customers also increased: in 2021 it increased 2.3 times and amounted to more than 817 million rubles, in 2020 360.3 million rubles were saved.

As noted by the Minister of the Government of Moscow, the head of the Department of Information Technologies of the city of Moscow, Eduard Lysenko, in 2020, the entire process of working with small-scale public procurement, from the conclusion of a contract to its execution, completely switched to electronic form. This saves time and makes the procurement process itself more transparent and understandable.

"With the introduction of options and technologies, the Vendor Portal is even more convenient. The portal's capabilities also allow you to spend less time performing routine operations related to creating product cards for the catalog - artificial intelligence analyzes the downloaded image of the product and offers suitable categories for it. To participate in the procurement of a large state order, entrepreneurs will need a bank guarantee, and from December you can apply for it directly in the personal account of the Supplier Portal, " added Eduard Lysenko

"Growth - 350 percent - was recorded in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, where purchases exceeded 3.7 billion rubles. The volume of purchases of the Krasnodar Territory increased by 144 percent to 1.2 billion rubles. Purchases of St. Petersburg by 5.9 billion rubles and the Moscow region by 16.6 billion rubles showed an increase of 99.5 percent and 93 percent, respectively. The volume of purchases of the Perm Territory increased by 16.8 percent, reaching 4.1 billion rubles. The volume of Moscow's purchases showed a restrained growth of 12.5 percent - from 42.5 billion rubles in 2020 to 47.8 billion rubles in 2021, " explained the head of the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy Ivan Shcherbakov

The supplier portal began its work in 2013. It is constantly updated and offers users convenient services. So, in 2021, functionality appeared on the Portal, thanks to which you can subscribe to purchases in a specific region. It allows suppliers to get up-to-date information about a potentially interesting offer without the need for constant tracking in the procurement register.

Also, on the portal, you can conclude contracts at the price per unit of product, register them and contracts concluded on paper, upload reports for a certain period in Excel format, and also promptly register customers using TINs through integration with the unified portal of the budget system of the Russian Federation "Electronic Budget."

Integration with Roseltorg site

On November 26, 2021, another service was launched on the Moscow portal of suppliers. It allows entrepreneurs to use the catalog of their products at the Roseltorg site for small purchases worth up to three million rubles. This makes it possible to participate in purchases without creating a new catalog.

Thanks to this option, entrepreneurs can participate in purchases on the Roseltorg electronic platform using the ready-made catalog of their products, compiled earlier on the supplier portal. At the same time, the entrepreneur can monitor the progress of the purchase in the personal account of the supplier portal. As a result, the supplier will have to perform only two actions on the Roseltorg electronic platform - to confirm the loading of items in the catalog of his products and put an electronic signature, as well as, if he wins the auction, sign a contract, - explained the Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Moscow Information Technology Department Eduard Lysenko.

The service works thanks to the integration of the supplier portal and the Roseltorg site. Entrepreneurs can now participate in purchases on one platform by logging in through another's account.

To participate in the auction, you must download the product catalog. This is necessary in order to form and publish a proposal on an electronic platform. The Supplier shall use the characteristics and product names established by the reference book of goods, services and works of the Unified Information System (UIS).

Within an hour after the publication of the purchase, the electronic platform will select five proposals with minimum prices that meet the customer's conditions. Therefore, it is important to quickly create and update product items.

The supplier portal systems and Roseltorg sites exchange data in real time: before sending, the items are automatically checked for compliance with the catalog of goods, services and works of the UIS. If the supplier's product characteristics are not filled correctly, the system prompts you to adjust them. You can track the status of a purchase in the personal account of the supplier portal, which will receive appropriate notifications.

This solution allows you to further expand the sales market for users of both platforms. More than 240 thousand suppliers received an additional opportunity to conclude profitable deals, and suppliers of the Roseltorg platform - access to small-volume purchases published on the portal. These steps contribute to increased competition at tenders and support for regional business, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy.

In accordance with the procurement standards for 44-FZ, before authorization at the Roseltorg site, it is necessary to register in the Unified Register of Procurement Participants (ERUZ). Those who are already registered there can log in to the supplier portal through a mos.ru account using the public services portal service.

265.7 thousand transactions worth 36.5 billion rubles in the first half of the year

For six months of 2021, transactions for the purchase of goods, works and services in the amount of 36.5 billion rubles were concluded on the Supplier Portal, which is 1.5 times more than in the first half of 2020 and more than three times more than in the same indicator in 2019. This was announced on July 26, 2021 by the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy, according to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

{{quote 'From January to June 2021, 265.7 thousand small volume transactions worth 36.5 billion rubles were concluded on the Suppliers Portal.

For comparison, for the same period in 2020, 222.1 thousand transactions in the amount of 24.2 billion rubles were concluded on the marketplace. In the first half of 2019, the figure was more than three times lower - 11.2 billion rubles. Such results were achieved thanks to the development of the service, which every year is used by an increasing number of suppliers and customers, - said the Deputy Mayor.}}

He clarified that as of July 2021, 230.1 thousand suppliers and 49.7 thousand customers were registered on the resource. In the first half of 2021, the increase was 23.8 thousand suppliers and 2.2 thousand customers.

This ratio in terms of the number of registered suppliers and customers made it possible to obtain savings during trading in the amount of 3.4 billion rubles. In total, customers from 37 regions of the country are represented on the Supplier Portal. On average, 7 suppliers fought for the right to conclude one transaction this year, "added Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy.

Traditionally, the largest number of purchases belongs to the categories: "Medical goods," "Construction goods," "Household goods," "Educational services." Also in the top 5 areas of procurement in 2021 included the category "Information technology means of communication, electronics, software."

Region definition option

On July 5, 2021, DIT of Moscow announced that the option to determine the region appeared on the Supplier Portal. This allows all portal users to save time on finding the necessary information and quickly find solutions for their tasks.

By introducing additional services and expanding the capabilities of regional partners, the Supplier Portal is becoming more and more popular. In 2020 alone, the number of suppliers on the portal increased by more than 20 percent, and the amount of purchases - by 35 percent. As of July 2021, the portal has suppliers from all over countries and customers from 37 regions, including. Moscow By being able to define the region, the information in the Vendor Portal is automatically tailored to the needs of a particular user. This allows the portal to be an even more convenient and effective tool for working with purchases, - said the head of the digitalization of complexes economies and urban facilities of the information technology Moscow City Department. Roman Urnyshev

Depending on the user's location, the portal will display proposals for goods, works and services of suppliers located nearby, automatically install filters for regional affiliation in the unified procurement register, contract register, in catalogs of goods, works and services, as well as when submitting a quotation. To see all the available options, it is enough to cancel the filter by region, while geo-positioning will remain.

If the user is not authorized on the portal, the region will be determined by its location. The portal will offer authorized users a region at the place of registration of its company or institution. In both cases, the user has the opportunity to agree with the proposed option by clicking on the "Yes, correct" button or change the location by choosing the "Choose another" button.

The portal is constantly developing, supplemented by services. It is important that the team does not stop there and is constantly looking for solutions, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

More than 40% of Russian regions participate in procurement on the Portal

More than 40% of Russian regions participate in procurement on the Moscow Supplier Portal. This was announced on July 1, 2021 by the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy, according to the head of Ivan Shcherbakov.

Representatives of 37 Russian regions work on the Supplier Portal, more than 228 thousand unique suppliers from all over the country offer their products on the resource.

The supplier portal is a product, an interregional B2G layout platform. Our resource has spread throughout the country: as of July 2021, 37 regions of Russia work with us, which have signed relevant agreements, whose representatives participate and place their orders of small volume on the site. The average size of the contract, depending on the subject, varies from 70 to 100 thousand rubles, - said Ivan Shcherbakov.

At the beginning of July 2021, more than 228 thousand unique suppliers were recorded on the Portal. At the same time, the number of potential participants is constantly growing. The range of goods, works and services that can be purchased using the resource is also expanding. To do this, a catalog of standard product units (CTE) has been created, which is constantly updated and replenished due to supplier proposals and customer needs. More than 1.2 million unique CTEs are already presented on the Supplier Portal, according to which quotation sessions can be announced (procedures for determining the most favorable price for CTEs by a specific supplier). About 90% of suppliers are small businesses.

Customer Interaction Chat

A chat for interaction with the customer has appeared on the Supplier Portal. This was reported on May 14, 2021 by the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy. The tool is available in the personal account of users and allows suppliers and customers to quickly interact within the framework of concluding a contract during direct procurement.

"The supplier portal is in continuous development to meet the needs of users. Chat for interaction with the customer was created, among other things, in response to requests from suppliers. We expect high user demand for the new functionality of the Portal. Now suppliers and customers will not have to call each other every time to clarify the details of the contract or delivery, it will be enough to write to the chat, "added Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

This chat is an analogue of the messenger. A separate dialogue will be created for each purchase, and any employee of the organization will be able to participate in the discussion of issues - the name of the organization and the name of the organization will be displayed in the history of correspondence. Thus, the proposed functionality helps save time for both parties when concluding a contract and replaces interaction by e-mail and phone.

As a result of feedback from users, the functionality of the chat will be expanded: it will also become available when concluding contracts for quotation sessions and when making purchases according to needs.

Ability to sign up for region-specific purchases

On February 24, 2021, it became known that the supplier portal had the opportunity to subscribe to purchases for a specific region. The function appeared at the request of portal participants who work with customers from various constituent entities of Russia. Thanks to this, entrepreneurs receive more personalized information - this will allow them to quickly find relevant offers.

210 thousand entrepreneurs from all over the country and customers from 37 regions are registered on the supplier portal for February 2021. More than a thousand transactions are concluded on it every day, and the catalog of goods, works and services already includes more than 1.1 million unique items. It is important that users find it convenient to navigate the ever-growing volume of information, so that personalization capabilities are given special attention so that each entrepreneur can configure the portal to solve their business problems. noted Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Government of Moscow, Head of the Department of Information Technologies

As explained, you can set criteria for each subscription - starting price, specific customer, purchase type and others. The subscription is configured for one or more regions. Notifications about suitable purchases come immediately after they are published on the supplier portal. Also, for the convenience of users, it is possible to assign a name to each subscription.

By implementing updated features, platform developers rely not only on user stories and vendor feedback communication , but also on usability to optimize metrics, such as saving time, reducing the likelihood of making a mistake. Having determined that users often use a single procurement register to search for purchases of interest to them, the ability to subscribe to purchases using the installed filters from the register itself was added, without the need to jump to another section. The "Subscribe to Purchases" function is in demand by users with the ability to edit their subscriptions through their personal account. added Ivan Shcherbakov, Head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy

You can view all subscriptions in the user's personal account, including those configured before the introduction of the updated function. The entrepreneur can adjust the purchasing criteria for personal mailing at any time.

In addition, it has become more convenient to work with offers on the supplier portal. The updated service groups together several offers with different delivery conditions attached to the same catalog item. This saves time when creating or signing quotations.

Vendors can now create one offer with different delivery terms depending on the region or organization type. All delivery types will appear on the item master record as soon as they are signed. At the same time, a restriction will remain that does not allow suppliers to set different price proposals for different government customers in the same region. The personal account of the supplier portal user was globally updated in 2020. Now users are automatically notified of active obligations, they can sign final offers in one window mode, search for the necessary information on the knowledge base, and more.

Integration with Roseltorg site

The integration of the Supplier Portal and the Roseltorg site will allow users to log in using the existing account of one of the resources. Also, thanks to integration, representatives of small businesses will have access to published procedures at the RoseltorgBusiness site. This was announced on February 15, 2021 by the Complex of Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations of Moscow, according to Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Moscow Government for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations.

Integration will remove barriers for vendors when transitioning between systems and provide instant authorization and simplified registration of new users. Within the framework of a single procurement ecosystem, seamless authorization with Roseltorg products has been implemented on the Supplier Portal, and information on purchases carried out on the Portal is available at the RoseltorgBusiness site. The supplier portal continuously develops the system of B2G- and B2B transactions. At the end of 2020, entrepreneurs made 490 thousand purchases on the Portal with a total volume of 61.1 billion rubles, which is 35% more than in 2019. In the B2B sector, 3.4 thousand purchases were carried out with a potential volume of over 500 million rubles, - said the deputy mayor.

The Vendor Portal provides partners with advanced integration capabilities. A universal integration gateway reduces the time and resources required to connect external sites and services. Thanks to this, as of February 2021, interaction has already been established with more than 45 organizations, including trading platforms, federal services, banking and logistics companies.

One of the connecting links in integrating with Roseltorg was the use of an all-Russian classifier of products by type of economic activity. This has made it easier to find, subscribe and participate in procurement. The concept of a single showcase is being developed by the Portal not only as an aggregator of public procurement, but also as a tool for working with B2B purchases, "said Eduard Lysenko, head of the Information Technology Department.

As a result of integration, Portal suppliers will be able to increase their sales market by participating in the procurement of large corporate clients of RoseltorgBusiness.

{{quote "We expect that integration with the Roseltorg system will not only expand the sales market for suppliers and simplify the procurement procedure, but will generally increase business interest in procurement on the Portal. As of February 2021, more than 205 thousand organizations and entrepreneurs are registered on the Portal, almost half of them are regional suppliers who want to find opportunities for their business. At the same time, suppliers of the RoseltorgBusiness system will have access to purchases of a "small volume" of Moscow in their system, which will increase competition and make it possible to achieve additional savings for customers of the city of Moscow. The supplier portal is open to cooperation on the integration of B2B procurement with all accredited trading platforms within the framework of a single procurement ecosystem, which guarantees openness, equal access to procurement and fair competition, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy. }}

The most popular in 2020 were purchases of medical goods, maintenance, maintenance and current repairs, construction goods, services for sanitary maintenance, waste management and cleaning, as well as information and technological goods. The most popular goods in the B2B segment were furniture for offices and enterprises, computers and peripheral equipment, as well as household appliances.

Combining efforts is beneficial for both users of our site and the Portal - suppliers registered on the latter will receive additional sales markets, and customers purchasing at Roseltorg will receive opportunities to conclude more profitable contracts. Our procurement platform for private companies includes more than five thousand categories of goods, works and services, and access to the publication of purchases is provided to dozens of private companies from all over Russia, - said Andrei Kashutin, First Deputy General Director of Roseltorg.

2020

Over the year, 40 thousand suppliers registered on the Supplier Portal

In 2020, 40 thousand suppliers registered on the Supplier Portal. This was announced on November 18, 2020 by the Complex of Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations of Moscow.

In total, 2020 thousand suppliers have already registered on the Internet platform for procurement for state and municipal needs "Supplier Portal" for November 200, almost half of them are regional companies and entrepreneurs, said Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Government of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations.

The supplier portal is a single small-volume procurement showcase that allows you to carry out all operational purchases in the format of an electronic store: quotation sessions last from 3 to 24 hours, contracts are concluded and executed electronically using an electronic signature - quickly, remotely and without paper media.

We see that over seven years of operation, the Supplier Portal has acquired the status of an all-Russian project. As of November 2020, it brings together suppliers from all over the country and customers from Moscow and 36 other regions. Since the beginning of 2020, almost 40 thousand suppliers have registered on the platform for making small purchases. In total, more than 200 thousand suppliers are already working on the Portal, 40% of which are regional companies and entrepreneurs. At the same time, 90% of all suppliers are representatives of small and medium-sized businesses, the share of individual entrepreneurs is 14%, "said the deputy mayor.

Most of all, business representatives from Moscow and the Moscow region were registered on the Portal - 119.1 thousand and 20.6 thousand suppliers, respectively. Also in the top 5 in terms of the number of registered suppliers includes Perm Territory - 7.4 thousand, St. Petersburg - 5.9 thousand and Krasnodar Territory - 3.4 thousand suppliers.

For 10 months of 2020, 59.4 thousand contracts were concluded between regional suppliers and metropolitan customers on the Portal for a total amount of 8.5 billion rubles, which is about 30% of the total volume of purchases of Moscow customers on the Portal. Most often, Moscow customers purchase medical, construction and household goods from regional suppliers. This circumstance testifies not only to the openness of the capital's procurement system, but also to the availability of a real opportunity for regional suppliers to enter the Moscow market with their offer. And Moscow suppliers get the opportunity to expand sales markets without additional costs, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

The procurement top on the portal includes medical goods, maintenance, maintenance and current repairs, construction and household goods, as well as sanitary maintenance and cleaning services. In addition, the supplier portal has proven to be a convenient service for purchases medical equipment and antiseptics for government customers, which is extremely important in the fight against coronavirus infection.

For 10 years, Moscow saved more than 1 trillion rubles on purchases

Since 2010, Moscow has conducted over one million procurement procedures with a total volume of about 8 trillion rubles. This was announced on November 5, 2020 by the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy. Read more here.

Adding a Smart Interface

A "smart" interface has appeared on the supplier portal. This was announced on November 6, 2020 by the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy.

The supplier portal is becoming even more convenient and accessible for participants in public procurement. To allow visitors to easily navigate the platform, different categories of users have developed their own options for designing the main page and navigation. So, if the portal visitor is not yet authorized, he will see the main information about the site, will be able to choose his future status of the customer or supplier and go to registration. The "smart" interface will recommend the authorized supplier to switch to purchases, and the customer to the product catalog.

Previously, the main page had a single interface. It contained a menu and a main ribbon with blocks. In them, new users, buyers and suppliers had to look for the necessary information.

The general concept of the supplier portal is to provide users with a simple and understandable participation in the procurement process. For this task, functionality, visual design, and user scripts are developed. Updating the interface and placing targeted content help participants feel confident at each stage of public procurement, easily navigate the information and quickly take the necessary actions, "said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Information Technology Department.

The updates also affected the main platform menu, it is the same for all categories of users. It displays the main sections required to organize work on the Portal. Now it is structured and presented in the form of a list of sections, and pop-ups with subsections make it easier to find the desired category. Thus, the "Product Catalog" section will help you select the necessary products. A separate block contains purchasing plans and schedules. The section "Unified Procurement Register" combines quotation sessions, competitive procedures, B2B and procurement according to needs. The results of procurement in all areas are posted in the "Contracts." Information about suppliers and customers can be found in the Organizations menu tab. The regional map, regulations, events and public discussions, support center and other reference information can be found in the section "Additional information."

In the future, it is planned to expand the set of tools for suppliers and customers.

{{quote "The portal functionality is constantly developing, adapting to new tasks of suppliers and customers, the interface becomes more convenient for all participants in procurement procedures. Improving the platform ensures transparency of processes, increases efficiency and competition in the field of procurement. We see that not only the total number of contracts and registered suppliers is growing, but their activity is at a high level: this year, competition in quotation sessions on the portal averages seven participants for procurement, - said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy . }}

The supplier portal was created in 2013 to automate small-volume procurement procedures. As of November 2020, almost 200 thousand suppliers from all over the country and customers from 36 regions of Russia work with the Internet resource. Every day, more than a thousand contracts are concluded on the portal, and the catalog of goods, works and services contains over 830 thousand items.

The volume of B2B transactions from January to July is over 165 million rubles

From January to July 2020, with the help of the Moscow Supplier Portal, about one thousand transactions were made in the B2B sector, and their potential volume amounted to more than 165 million rubles, said on August 14, 2020, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

"In the first seven months of 2020, 970 B2B transactions were concluded on the Suppliers Portal, their potential volume amounted to 165 million rubles. Commercial customers have the right not to specify the initial purchase price if they do not know its real value, and the maximum amount of the placed order is limited to a million rubles. Loyal conditions allow representatives of small and medium-sized businesses to participate in procurement. This is more than 90% of active Portal users. The average contract price following the results of procurement procedures in January - July amounted to about 170 thousand rubles, "said the vice-mayor.

The supplier portal provides entrepreneurs with interaction not only with state customers, but helps to search for business partners through a single procurement showcase. Access to the B2B format allows small businesses to work with major market players.

"Technology solutions on the Supplier Portal allow you to connect external B2B sites as soon as possible, which helps to continue to increase the volume of transactions between companies. The Portal tools that are already working due to the service-oriented architecture are used more widely and scale to new user requests. For example, the newsletter subscription service takes into account new connections and invites suppliers to B2B purchases, taking into account the company's profile, "said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Information Technology Department.

All platform functionality is also available to users of the supplier portal, including access to the largest marketplaces. A single procurement showcase and a targeted mailing system with notifications of published tenders allow suppliers to participate in public procurement and conduct B2B transactions in a short time.

"Commercial organizations were able to place their purchases on the Supplier Portal in July 2019, from that moment on, about 1.5 thousand B2B transactions with a potential volume of more than 200 million rubles were completed with the help of the resource," said Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

He also added that the most demanded goods and services this year were computer, optical and electronic equipment, information technology products, communications, office equipment, electronics, as well as furniture and plastic and rubber products. Since the beginning of the year, more than 350 thousand standard trading units (CTE) have been added to the product catalog.

Every day, more than a thousand contracts are concluded on the Portal, and the catalog of unique goods, works and services contains over 700 thousand items. As of August 2020, more than 184 thousand suppliers are working with the resource.

Launch of electronic document management service in case of small purchases

In August 2020, suppliers Moscow were able to switch to electronic document flow small purchases. The new service on the portal is expected to save the budget 4.3 billion a rubles year.

This amount was named by the Minister of the Government of Moscow, the head of the Main Control Department of the city of Moscow Yevgeny Danchikov, specifying that savings are achieved due to the transition of the city to electronic document management in the execution of contracts and contracts.

Long-term results will improve the efficiency of each contract service. In addition, due to the absolute transparency of the digital execution process, the need for additional control is simply excluded, - he noted (words are given on the official website of the mayor of Moscow).

The service of universal electronic document management of small purchases has been launched on the supplier portal. It allows the supplier from the portal's personal account to form a universal electronic document that will serve both as an invoice and as an act of acceptance. There you can also sign it with an electronic signature and send it to the customer's accounting system, where it is possible to accept the goods, register and pay.

This will help to avoid the delivery of paper documents, reduce labor costs both on the side of the supplier and the customer, including completely eliminating the manual entry of information and primary execution documents into the accounting system. By August 7, 2020, this procedure takes 80% of the time of the customer's profile specialist, and in Moscow there are 275 thousand small purchases per year, which is 62% of the total.

If at least a few working hours can be saved on each of the contracts, then it will be a gigantic reduction in labor costs and a decrease in the total cost, said Nikolai Barkov, head of the project office of the Main Control Department of Moscow.^[1]

The volume of transactions increased by 80% to 3.6 billion rubles in July

On August 4, 2020, the Moscow Department of Competition Policy announced that the volume of transactions on the Moscow Suppliers Portal with regional and Moscow customers and suppliers in July 2020 amounted to 3.6 billion rubles, which is 80% more than in July 2019.

In total, in July 2020, 26.4 thousand contracts were concluded on the Suppliers Portal, which in number corresponds to the same period in 2019, while the total amount of transactions almost doubled and amounted to 3.6 billion rubles. This happened after in April the maximum possible value of the contract with a single supplier was increased from 300 to 600 thousand rubles. Due to the enlargement of procurement volumes, business interest in the Portal increased, the level of competition at quotation sessions increased. Now, on average, seven entrepreneurs participate in them, "explained Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations.

He also added that of the other subjects, most of the contracts in July 2020 were concluded with customers from the Perm Territory, Krasnodar Territory, Novgorod Region, Kemerovo Region and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.

The most popular goods and services were medical goods, maintenance, maintenance and current repairs, construction and household goods, as well as sanitary maintenance and cleaning services.

The head of the Competition Policy Department, Ivan Shcherbakov, noted that in July 2020, almost 5 thousand users registered on the Portal and at the beginning of August 2020, more than 182 thousand suppliers work with the resource, 80% of them are representatives of small and medium-sized businesses.

The increase in the number of users is associated, among other things, with the constant development of the Portal's functionality. In July 2020, several solutions were added to the Portal that have already made the procurement process more convenient and faster. The function of calculating the estimated cost of delivery of goods has been added, the directory of the Federal Information Address System has been introduced, and customers can declare purchases with an unknown volume, indicating the price per unit of goods, work or services, he added.

EGRUL Profile Autocomplete Service

On July 21, 2020, it became known that a service for auto-filling a profile from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRUL) was introduced on the Supplier Portal. As a result, registration on the supplier portal has become even easier. Entrepreneurs no longer need to manually enter company data when filling out a profile. All the necessary information can be transferred automatically thanks to the integration of the portal and the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

The personal account provides the function "Get data from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities." If a participant is registered on the portal for the first time, it is enough for him to enter the company's TIN, and all the data that is in the registry will fill out the necessary columns automatically. The same tool will help if you need to change already entered information or update it.

"Digital solutions help attract bona fide bidders to the Moscow Suppliers Portal, ensure the reliability and relevance of the information provided, and reduce the number of technical errors when concluding contracts. And integration with the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is another step for the development of healthy competition and transparency in the field of public procurement. In addition, auto-filling is also convenient for users who do not need to manually enter data chains, "said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Information Technology Department.

The Unified State Register of Legal Entities contains information about the name of the organization, its legal form, details, address, TIN, OKVED, data on the founders and other open information. All of them are now loaded into the profile automatically, the user only needs to save them. While manual input remains available. The developers plan to implement daily auto-update on an ongoing basis. This will ensure the relevance and reliability of the data, avoid errors in the conclusion of contracts and track companies in respect of which bankruptcy proceedings are underway.

At the first registration, reliable information about the organization's TIN is automatically sent to the profile if the supplier or customer uses an electronic signature, and the database will now help to quickly supplement the missing information YeGRYuL.​

"The portal is constantly being upgraded and supplemented with new digital features. This year, the site is testing an electronic document management tool, added functionality for registering contracts concluded on paper, and added the ability to use standard contracts. In addition, filters on the types of organizations were added to the catalog, as well as the ability to monitor the dynamics of quotations and find similar products. The introduction of convenient online mechanisms in the field of public procurement saves the time of customers and suppliers, creating conditions for the development of a common digital ecosystem to support business both in Moscow and in the regions, "added Ivan Shcherbakov, head of the Moscow Department for Competition Policy.

For regions: digital accounting of contracts, purchases without determining the volume, settings for different categories OKPD2

On June 25, 2020, it became known that the list of tools and services for the regions has been expanded on the Moscow Supplier Portal. Improvements are designed to expand sales markets, increase competition, lead to lower prices and significant cost savings.

The Moscow Supplier Portal is actively developing in the regions and is refining its functionality taking into account the wishes of users from other cities. Several opportunities appeared at once on the Portal at the request of regional partners. Users make their suggestions and wishes to the functionality of the site during training seminars, information meetings, use feedback channels, contact local bodies responsible for public procurement.

Regional public procurement systems have their own features that Moscow does not face. Suggestions for improving the Portal help to combine different procurement methods on one resource and provide users with confident work with the site. The regions, in turn, are actively adopting the experience of Moscow, successfully using proven practices. All tools and additional services are aimed at increasing competition, increasing the level of openness and transparency in the field of public procurement, - said the Minister of the Government of Moscow, Head of the Department of Information Technologies Eduard Lysenko

Thus, at the initiative of regional users, digital accounting was introduced for contracts that could not be concluded electronically. It will help to register a deal executed on paper. To do this, in the customer's personal account, you need to fill out several fields and download the scanned version of the contract. It will be included in the overall procurement list of the region and is available for statistics at the end of the reporting period.

To date, 40% of the users of the Suppliers Portal are regional entrepreneurs, therefore, for the development of a competitive environment, it is very important that the experience of interacting with the resource is open, convenient and understandable. 34 regions of Russia are already working with the site: thanks to the tools, they managed to significantly save budget resources, including by increasing competition. In addition, the Portal allows you to conclude a contract as soon as possible due to "short" quotation sessions for 3 and 6 hours. At the same time, the average savings during quotation sessions is 13%, - noted the head of the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy Ivan Shcherbakov

At the request of users, the procurement functionality has been expanded without determining the volume. This is necessary when the customer disposes of a specific amount. Suppliers do not compete with value, but with the amount of goods that they are willing to provide for the specified amount. For example, the school plans to purchase paper and sets the purchase price. One supplier offers to bring 10 boxes, and the other 12. As a result, the cost of the pack decreases, although trading is not in the price category, but in the quantitative.

Another revision allows you to set up a method for conducting small-volume purchases in different categories of the All-Russian Classifier of Products by Type of Economic Activity (OKPD2). The authorized body can set up the type of purchase for popular goods, services or works. For example, when purchasing paper, computers and cartridges, searching for cleaning and other services, the authorized body can authorize the purchase only through a competitive procedure (quotation session). The functionality additionally expands the market for suppliers, increases competition and reduces prices for certain goods, works, services, which leads to significant cost savings.

Also, the authorized body can announce the purchase on behalf of its subordinate organization and then determine the supplier for the conclusion of the contract. For example, instead of an employee of the customer organization, a specialist of the regional authorized body in the field of procurement can prepare a tender. The involvement of specialized experienced employees helps to avoid errors in the preparation of documents, qualitatively conduct and control all competitive stages stipulated by law and accompany the course of the transaction. The contract is concluded directly by the customer.

The regional procurement authority has received an additional tool that allows you to set up the selection of the purchase basis for certain groups of government customers. The configuration helps the end customer not to get confused in the large list of procurement reasons, reduces the number of users' calls to the portal technical support service.

Conclusion of 29 thousand contracts for 3.7 billion rubles for the year

Since May 2019, about 40 thousand suppliers have registered on the portal, who sold their goods and services on this site for 3.7 billion rubles, it became known on June 9, 2020 from the words of the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Efimov.

The portal makes it possible for small and medium-sized businesses to actively participate in small-scale public procurement. With the emerging users of the portal, who joined it over the past year, 29 thousand contracts were concluded for 3.7 billion rubles, which is 9.5% of the total volume of all purchases during this time. Almost 80% of the added users of this resource signed at least one contract in a year with its help, the vice mayor said.

The deputy mayor also added that users from the field of information technology showed themselves most actively in terms of the number of contracts concluded, who supplied city customers with various means of communication and software. Also most adventurous were suppliers of construction and medical supplies.

As of June 9, 2020, more than 174 thousand suppliers are already working with the portal, the daily increase is more than 100 added users, and the catalog of unique goods, works and services has exceeded 590 thousand items, he added.

Half a million goods and services

For two years since the creation of the catalog of Standard Commodity Units on the Supplier Portal, it has registered 500 thousand digitized goods and services aimed at metropolitan and regional customers.

The classifier is an automated electronic catalog of goods, services and works, which allows customers to quickly find the products they need, evaluate technical and price characteristics, compare proposals for the further formation of a technical assignment.

"With the introduction of an electronic catalogue, the range of products that suppliers offer for procurement continues to grow by an average of 1,000 items per day. About 1300 applications are processed per day, the contract term has been reduced to 24 hours. The catalog is replenished with goods and price offers aimed, among other things, at regional customers, so suppliers have the opportunity to expand sales markets and promote products, which ensures healthy competition, "said Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Information Technology Department.

"This year, the Supplier Portal launched a pilot electronic document management tool for online interaction between customers, suppliers and regulatory authorities. In addition, filters were added to the catalog by the types of organizations that can supply a certain product, the ability to monitor the dynamics of quotations and find similar products. Also, users can compare all the characteristics of goods with offers in Yandex.Market, Google Purchases and Unified Trade Aggregator services, "Ivan Shcherbakov explained.

Integration with the i.moscow IT platform

On April 20, 2020, the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy announced that the Electronic Catalog of the Supplier Portal will be available for participants in the Moscow Innovation Cluster. Bilateral integration will expand the functionality of both resources and give their users new capabilities. To add the product to users of the i.moscow platform, it will be enough to fill out the form and specify the necessary characteristics, and the information will be posted on the portal zakupki.mos.ru.

Electronic Document Management Pilot Run

On April 13, 2020, it became known that electronic document management was launched on the Supplier Portal in pilot mode. Online interaction between customers, suppliers and regulatory authorities in the field of procurement will save time, reduce costs and reduce the number of errors.

As reported, at the contract execution stage, suppliers no longer need to manually create documents with a description of the specification and send them in paper form to customers. They, in turn, do not spend time transferring data to payment or accounting documents. All necessary information is automatically collected on the Supplier Portal in a universal transfer document (UPD), compiled in the form Federal Tax Service.

Electronic document management on the Supplier Portal was the first in the field of procurement carried out by 44-FZ in Moscow. The exchange of legal documents is now possible without the use of paper media, which significantly reduces the labor costs of participants in the procurement process. In addition to practical benefits, convenience and time saving, the introduction of an online mechanism in the field of public procurement is an additional step in the development of a common digital ecosystem that is being created in the city to support business. told Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Government of Moscow, Head of the Department of Information Technologies

The universal transfer document automatically summarizes the data provided by the delivery specification - name, characteristics, quantity and other necessary parameters. The more detailed the products are described in the Supplier Portal catalog, the fewer additions will have to be made. With a mouse click, the performer sends the filled UPD to the customer, and is unlucky, as before, in printed form, wasting time and money on delivery.

Now the performer online sees the status of the document. The entrepreneur does not need to call, find out at what stage the consideration of papers and when to wait for payment. All information is available in the personal account of the Supplier Portal.

The customer receives the necessary documents immediately in the form of the Federal Tax Service, which facilitates the confirmation of costs in the taxation system in the process of fulfilling contractual obligations. Due to the end-to-end integration between budget and accounting organizations, the electronic specification does not need to be entered manually. Already at these stages, the number of technical errors and incorrectly compiled applications is reduced.

A survey of entrepreneurs working in the city order market showed that more than a quarter of respondents consider improving the supplier portal as a tool for automating small purchases necessary. It leads to the fact that this market becomes more understandable and open for business. That is why the portal development team regularly expands its functionality and develops the convenience of its services. told Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Land and Property Relations

More than a thousand contracts are concluded on the supplier portal every day. Very loyal price covers of transactions operate on this Internet resource: if you wish, you can find purchases of up to ten thousand rubles, you can find up to one hundred thousand rubles. This allows you to attract representatives of small businesses to participate. Electronic document management due to convenience and time saving will allow entrepreneurs to even more actively participate in auctions and purchases on the Portal. told Ivan Shcherbakov, Head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy

Pilot testing of electronic document management began in February 2020, and so far customers of the focus group of the capital are taking part in it. After a technical check of the service, they plan to expand the practice to all customers and suppliers in Moscow and the regions.

• more than 90 percent of registered users are small businesses;
• the volume of purchases on the portal at the end of 2018 amounted to about 25 billion rubles and more than 280 thousand concluded contracts.

At the same time, competition at quotation sessions continues to be the highest - 7 participants each. In addition to the existing work with VTB Business-Connect and SberB2B sites, in 2019 there was a seamless integration of the Supplier Portal with the Electronic Store of the Moscow Region. All this allowed entrepreneurs not only to expand the sales markets of products, but also to attract suppliers, said Gennady Dögtev

Among the important initiatives of 2019 is the launch of the English version, as well as cloud electronic signature, a digital tool that allows you to work with the Portal from anywhere in the world. 2019 was marked by the regional expansion of the portal.

The supplier portal is an important element of this ecosystem, and we are purposefully working to expand its capabilities. In fact, it becomes a full-fledged marketplace. The functionality of the portal covers almost all stages of procurement: starting from the catalog of goods, where a business can present its products to customers, and ending with the solution of logistics issues - we will add such a function in the near future. As in other industries, for the development of the procurement sector, we will introduce end-to-end technologies. For example, the plans include the use of artificial intelligence to notify users of potentially interesting purchases for it and the expansion of cloud electronic signature functionality, told Eduard Lysenko

On November 7, 2019, the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy announced that 300 thousand contracts with the NSR were concluded on the Suppliers Portal for 10 months of 2019.

At the beginning of November 2019, about 300 thousand contracts were concluded with small businesses through the Supplier Portal.

The figures confirm that entrepreneurs are increasingly using this tool, which we managed to scale to almost all regions of Russia, noted Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations

166.5 thousand suppliers are already working on the Supplier Portal. The variety of needs of city customers allows expanding the portfolio of orders to companies from different fields of activity, said Gennady Dogtev, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

Most often, over the past ten months, city customers have signed contracts with small businesses for the supply medical of goods, as well as for the maintenance and maintenance of buildings and premises. Up to 20 thousand contracts were concluded for each of these items. Also popular on the Supplier Portal were educational services, delivery construction of goods. If we take the activity of the entrepreneurs themselves, then it also increased compared to 2018. We record an average of 7 participants in the quotation session on the Supplier Portal. A year earlier, this figure was 6 participants, designated Gennady Dögtev

Availability of short quotation sessions lasting 3, 6 and 24 hours

On August 30, 2019, DIT of Moscow announced that short quotation sessions with a duration of 3, 6 and 24 hours became available on the supplier portal. They will help customers who urgently need to make a small purchase.

{{quote 'Moscow continues to improve electronic services for business. The function of the Supplier Portal will make it possible to announce a short quotation session in order to reduce the time for concluding a small contract if the customer has such a need, - said the Press Service of the Moscow Department of Information Technologies. }}

Customers can announce a quotation session for 24 hours at any time. However, a session for six hours can only be announced up to 12 hours of the working day, and for three hours (only for goods) - up to 15 hours Moscow time. Such restrictions were introduced in order for the quotation session to end on the same day.

The customer chooses the duration of the quotation session at the time of its creation. To prevent an error, the system checks the quotation session against the timeslots when it is created.

The vendors are then notified of the start of the purchase. It goes according to the usual scheme: in the course of its holding, the winner with whom the contract is concluded is determined.

The Portal for August 2019 presents 157 thousand suppliers from all regions of Russia. Since the beginning of 2019, 18 thousand suppliers have registered on the portal, of which 9 thousand are from the regions.

In 2019, 54 thousand quotation sessions were held on the Suppliers Portal for a total amount of about 4.5 billion rubles. The average reduction in the initial price during quotation sessions is 13%.

Integration into the Unified Digital Procurement Management Space based on EAIST

The unified digital procurement management space, created on the basis of the Unified Automated Trading Information System (EAIST) of Moscow and integrated with the Supplier Portal Internet resource, was presented on June 7, 2019 by the head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy Gennady Dogtev.

Digital technology leads to increased competition and simplifies access to the procurement market, which is ultimately a factor in the growth of the economy. And Moscow supports this statement with the resulting effects from the creation of a digital framework for the contract procurement system, which ensures the automation of the full cycle of contract system processes. For several years, thanks to the digitalization of procurement management, annual budget savings of 20 percent were ensured, in numerical terms - up to 200 billion rubles. It is important to note that the supplier portal ensured the influx of regional suppliers into the capital's procurement market. In June, 70 thousand regional companies work with the system and this is almost half of all business users of the resource. At the same time, the integration of the resource with customers from more than 30 constituent entities of Russia had a great synergistic effect,

The growth of the activity of entrepreneurs in the Moscow procurement market provided high competition, he added.

Thanks to him, the regional administrator will see aggregated statistics on his subject or subordinate organization, including in the context of the number of concluded contracts and the achieved reduction of the NMCC. The analytical module was developed taking into account the wishes of regional customers. The most active part in the development of this functionality was taken by the authorized bodies of the Perm Territory, Novgorod and the Kemerovo Region. All customers of these entities conduct small volume purchases through the supplier portal. Gennady Dogtev, Head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy

In the system, the regional administrator will be able to track the number of announced and completed small-volume purchases, as well as the number of contracts that were concluded as a result of such purchases. It is important that the list of indicators with statistical data is quite flexible. For authorized regional bodies, it is possible to add a personal account with statistical widgets that will reflect the peculiarities of procurement in a particular subject. Eduard Lysenko, Head of Information Technology Department

In 2018, the Portal concluded more than 280 thousand contracts with a total value of 25 billion rubles. As of April 2019, more than a thousand contracts are concluded on the Supplier Portal every day.

Entrepreneurs registered at the VTB Business Connect site will be able to identify the needs of customers of the Supplier Portal and offer their goods and services. This will contribute to the growth of competition on the portal and reduce the cost of contracts. At the same time, participants in the small purchase market will have the opportunity to interact in a different format. It is important that the city does not spend money on the development and maintenance of the B2B platform by using the ready-made technological solution of VTB Bank. Vladimir Efimov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Government of Moscow for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations, Head of the Department of Economic Policy and Development of the City of Moscow

This gives suppliers the opportunity to build an effective strategy for the development of the external economic market. Gennady Dogtev, Head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy

Connecting regions to the resource and interacting with electronic platforms in less than six months made it possible to increase the number of entrepreneurs on the Portal by 60%. This was made possible thanks to the developed universal integration services, which allow you to quickly combine with external systems. In the near future, it is planned to integrate the portal with other trading platforms in Russia. Eduard Lysenko, Head of the Moscow City Information Technology Department

Integration with the Moscow Supplier Portal will help platform users find new customers in the person of reliable city buyers, and portal suppliers will have the opportunity to bring their goods to the international market. Thus, this will bring the small-volume procurement market to a new level. Spartak Solonin, Head of Corporate Digital Business Department - Senior Vice President of VTB

Information interaction with EAT "Birch"

Internet resources designed to automate small purchases - the Supplier Portal and the unified trading aggregator "Birch" - combine their competencies in the interests of customers and suppliers. This was reported on January 9, 2019 by the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy.

As noted, the main goal of cooperation between the Moscow Government and RT-Design Technologies JSC of Rostec State Corporation is to expand the access of small businesses to the public procurement market and reduce prices for comparable goods, works, and services for customers.

Mutual exchange of banners with links to the main pages, a single entry point for users of both systems, the implementation of methods and interfaces for authorizing EU users in the personal account of the Supplier Portal can only be considered the beginning of integration of federal and regional small-volume procurement systems, said Gennady Dogtev, head of the Moscow Department for Competitive Policy.

Users of two small-volume electronic procurement windows - the Supplier Portal and EAT Birch - can freely switch from one site to another. To do this, special transition buttons are integrated on both Internet resources. Now entrepreneurs and customers will have more complete information about the structure of demand, supply and price level for various types of goods, works and services. In the future, it is planned to synchronize the EAT classifier of goods, works and services, based on the catalog of goods, works, services formed by the Ministry of Finance of Russia, with the Catalog of standard product units of the Supplier Portal (CTE), - added Gennady Dogtev.

It is expected that the information exchange of two resources will contribute to attracting even more customers and suppliers from different regions to the e-procurement market, thereby promoting healthy competition in the public procurement market and transparency of all procedures.

The supplier portal for 131 thousand companies has become a point of entry into the "small volume" procurement markets of 20 regions, including Moscow. Daily work on the resource begins new customers and suppliers from different subjects of the country. Information exchange with Birch will bring additional opportunities for the development of regional business and will contribute to the growth of competition in the small-volume procurement market, "said Gennady Dogtev.

The unified trading aggregator "Birch" is not an electronic store, especially not an electronic platform for auctions. EAT is a federal information resource that aggregates price offers for identical goods, works, services in accordance with the customer's request, which is formed using a classifier. The result is ranked from a smaller price offer to a larger one. The customer purchases goods (work, service) at a minimum price, - explained for his part the general director of RT-Design Technologies JSC Sergey Yarosh.

2018: Quality Control Service Launch

On October 17, 2018, the Moscow City Department for Competitive Policy announced the launch of a quality control service. Users of the Internet resource can send their feedback and suggestions to the service, which can make the portal as convenient as possible, said the head of the Department Gennady Dogtev.

Feedback to supplier portal users, no matter where they live and work, suppliers and customers are, is essential to improving services. A look from the outside will help increase customer focus and generally develop the portal, on which more than 126 thousand entrepreneurs from all regions of Russia were registered as of October 2018. Various communication channels work to provide feedback. First of all, this is an email with which you can express your opinion about the portal and share your thoughts on its development. To understand the degree of user satisfaction, we actively use and will use social networks. At the request of users, a telephone line was launched.

The Internet resource helps to increase the competition of potential suppliers, makes it possible to objectively assess the existing market for offers and analyze information about the fulfillment of obligations by suppliers by government and commercial customers. The adaptability of the technical solution of the supplier portal since the beginning of 2018 allows the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to make small purchases in accordance with regional legislation.
