Hello,
The agenda of our Country changes so quickly that it is rather hard to
catch up with the updtaed agenda. In the beginning of this year, TSBS
(Health Informaiton System of Turkey), initiated by the Ministry of
Health, gave us hope about the health information system. Just for that
reason the content of the 4th edition of our magazine was prepared due to
this axis. In the same way the Public Procurement Law (KIK) gave the same
hopes and strenghtened the idea of a transperant procurement law and
powerfull confident companies to be produced by
this.
As we mentioned in the beginning of our article, the
agenda is changing very rapidly. We have learned that the studies of the
TSBS were terminated, although the ink of the 4th edition has not dried
out yet. However TSBS was including the anticipations for creating a new vision for Turkey and
also arguements of infratsucture studies of the health information
system.
But
again we couldnt take a further step than starting
as a Turk.
The condition is different in the new Procurement Law. In many of the
procurement the preparation is by means of using the sources in the most
efficient way, bringing quality aspect to the first plan and preventing
improprieties and providing & increasing equal competition
fields; where a pity in some of the procurements the condition can be just
the contrary. Especially law no. 4734, the item 20 which determines the Procurement Style Among Determined Enthusiastics
and, b article of item 21, used for Urgent
Procurements, cause to form suspicions about the procurements. Some of
the administrations are requiring conditions that are not anticipated by
the law in order to participate the procurement, even some are requiring
the source codes of the software [It is a pity that the Law no. 5846 of
Thought & Work of Art (FSEK), doesnt contain an item to prevent
this].
It is obvious that; the
institution that possess the procurement will most benefit from the
procurements when competent companies participate in the procurements.
Besides, the participant companies are asked for documenting their
qualifications (completion, guarantee etc).
Instead, it will be
more usefull if ISO and TSE certificates that will provide the quality of
both the product and the company, to be requested since it will direct the
companies toward quality. Requests of proving to be served to a University Hospital or having completed
cabling and documenting such studies will not be usefull for the
institutions in fact (It is a fact that if the institutions will seperate
the procurement of Hardware and Software –what is more, infrastructure and
network implementations- they will have more chance of working with
qualified proffessionals).
Obtaining open
procurements that all companies may participate will provide; buying the
best product to a proper price, increase the competence conditions, and
forwarding companies to produce more qualified products. This will be for
the benefit of both the sector and the
Country.
It is
also another obstacle; the requirement of software source codes for the
conditions of competence.
It
will be understandable of requiring the source codes if the software is
produced for the procurement in question.
However,
handing over the source codes to the procuring management, prevents the
companies that spent long term studies on improving software.
It
should be considered that, within Ministry of Health, it is well known that, the improved software project
for Hospitals are being used by at least two companies which have very few
labour on the subject.
The
way of preventing of the codes being captured by the rivals of the code
producer company is open for discussion since previously the codes cannot
be claimed by the project management.
Observation of these type of procurement with the
related Ministries, besides adding items to the Law of Thought & Work
of Art (FSEK) related to source codes, will be more usefull for both the
companies that participate in the procurements and the institutions.
Yours
respectfully. |
