The position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Regional Steering Committee of the Transport Community established by the Treaty establishing the Transport Community (the ‘Steering Committee’) regarding the amendment of the Annex to the Financial Rules and Auditing Procedures applicable to the Transport Community, adopted pursuant to Decision No 2022/02 of the Steering Committee, shall be based on the draft Decision of the Steering Committee attached to this Decision.
The Annex to the Financial Rules and Auditing Procedures applicable to the Transport Community, adopted pursuant to Decision No. 2022/02 of the Regional Steering Committee of the Transport Community, is amended as follows:
(1)
in Section 3, the following point is added:
‘4.2.
Simplified procurement procedure for low-value goods and services
For the procurement of simple, straightforward and routine services and supplies, including but not limited to venue hire, restaurant services, translation, equipment rental and purchase of items, where the precise volume and timing of delivery can be defined at the outset and where the estimated total value does not exceed EUR 20 000 (excluding VAT), a simplified procurement procedure shall apply.
This procedure shall consist of:
(a)
collecting at least three offers from eligible providers;
(b)
evaluating the offers on the basis of key factors such as price and ability to deliver the services or supplies;
(c)
awarding the contract and finalising it through a purchase order or a simplified direct contract.
This simplified procedure shall ensure adequate market consultation, while reducing administrative burdens. A record of the offers collected and the evaluation process shall be kept in order to allow for a proper audit trail and to ensure the transparency of the process.’
;
(2)
the following section is added:
‘5. Section 4
5.1.
In cases where this Annex does not contain explicit provisions, the rules and principles laid down in Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on public procurement and repealing Directive 2004/18/EC ( 2 ) shall apply, with the necessary adaptations.’.
Minor technical changes to the position set out in Article 1 may be agreed upon by the representatives of the Union in the Steering Committee without a further decision of the Council.
