Central Purchasing Agencies and Aggregating Subjects under the NRP.<\/b><\/span><\/h6>\n

In October 2021 ANAC published a<\/span> Vademecum on Aggregating Bodies<\/span>, with the aim of gathering relevant regulatory references, resolutions and reports, to shed light on these bodies and the regulations applicable to them.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Simplifications bis Decree established, as is well known, that municipalities that are not provincial capitals, in order to award public contracts financed with the PNRR\/PNC with a value equal to or higher than the thresholds indicated (40,000 for services and supplies, 150. 000 for works, or higher in the case of qualification of the contracting station) will have to turn to central purchasing bodies or qualified aggregating entities (as well as Unions of Municipalities established and qualified as central purchasing bodies or single contracting stations, single contracting stations established at Provinces, Metropolitan Cities or wide area entities, as well as Unions of Municipalities, Provinces, Metropolitan Cities and Provincial capitals).<\/span><\/p>\n

The Vademecum first clarifies some definitions, reminding that <\/span>central purchasing body<\/span> is a contracting authority or contracting entity that provides centralized purchasing activities and, where appropriate, ancillary purchasing activities; while <\/span>aggregating entity<\/span> is a qualified and qualified central purchasing body (ex lege or through prior assessment by ANAC and subsequent inclusion in the appropriate list).<\/span><\/p>\n

The list of aggregators<\/span> is established within the Unified Registry of Contracting Stations (AUSA) held by ANAC, and includes up to a maximum of 35 entities, of which the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, including the interregional superintendencies for public works Consip S.p.A., and a Central Purchasing Agency for each Region are ex officio members. Enrollment in the AUSA is sufficient for the time being, as the system of requirements established by the D.P.C.M. of November 11, 2014 has remained unimplemented, pending the entry into force of the qualification system for contracting stations under Article 38 Code.<\/span><\/p>\n

Particularly useful, then, is the Vademecum’s reference to previous<\/span> Directions on the management of framework agreements and framework conventions<\/span>, dated July 2021, in which the Authority, also drawing on the discipline of Consip S.p.A., recalled that central purchasing bodies and aggregating entities:<\/span><\/p>\n
