Direktorat za politiku javnih nabavki — Directorate for Public Procurement Policy (Montenegro)
The Direktorat za politiku javnih nabavki is Montenegro's government directorate that issues procurement guidance, training information and links to the CEJN e‑procurement portal.
Role and remit
The Directorate for Public Procurement Policy (Direktorat za politiku javnih nabavki) maintains official information on procurement law, the strategic framework, implementation instructions and practitioner support. Its website publishes regulations, guidance, lists of contracting entities and notices about training and the professional exam for procurement staff.
How it differs from CEJN
The Directorate provides policy, training schedules and links; it is not described on its pages as operating the CEJN transactional system. Instead, the Directorate's site states CEJN is the single electronic system where economic operators electronically submit offers and access the centralised procurement database.
Practical consequence for suppliers
Suppliers should use the Directorate's materials for legal interpretation, lists of entities and training opportunities but follow CEJN for transactional actions: accessing procedure records, obtaining tender documents and electronic bid submission, as CEJN is presented as the authorised portal for those transactions.
