政府採購選商制度之架構與問題

The Framework and Issues of the Vendor Selection System in Government Procurement.

本文希望指明，我國政府採購法（下稱「採購法」）規劃之選商制度的架構，並凸顯選商程序各階段發生的主要問題。為此，首先應清楚掌握採購法之立法目的及其整體安排，藉此確立政府採購選商之制度目標與其體系背景。至於政府採購選商制度的架構，主要則藉由不同招標方式的安排與選擇、採購標的之規格與參標廠商之資格的決定，以及最低價標或最有利標之決標標準的擇定來組成。此外，本文主要雖致力於說明我國採購法對選商的制度安排，但亦參採德國相關法制上的論述，以資比較。

This article aims to elucidate the framework of the vendor selection system under Taiwan’s Government Procurement Act (hereinafter referred to as the “Procurement Act”) and to accentuate the main issues encountered at various stages of the vendor selection process. To achieve this, it is first essential to clearly grasp the legislative intent and overall structure of the Procurement Act, thereby understanding the objectives of the government procurement vendor selection system and its contextual background. The framework of the government procurement vendor selection system is primarily composed of the arrangements and choices among different tendering methods, the determination of the specifications for procurement items and the qualifications of participating vendors, as well as the selection of award criteria, whether based on the lowest bid or the most advantageous bid. While this article primarily focuses on elaborating on the institutional arrangements for vendor selection under Taiwan’s Procurement Act, it also refers to relevant discussions in German legal frameworks for comparative purposes.
