It establishes a central procurement office responsible for supporting authorities, managing procedures, issuing guidance, training staff, operating the national procurement platform, and ensuring compliance oversight. It defines bidder requirements such as labour, equal pay, and environmental compliance declarations, and sets rules on fees, documentation, and reimbursement. It also assigns enforcement responsibilities to various cantonal bodies, and creates an advisory board.
