The importance of public procurements for the future of the institutions which function based on their budget credits determines the interest in studying that area. It requires a comprehensive study in three main trends – legal framework, accounting processes and control on the public procurements. The aim of the study is to establish the legal, accounting and control aspects of the public procurement in the public sector. The main tasks are: examining their legal framework; studying the public sector procurement reporting; studying the preliminary control and examining the external control on public procurements. The thesis statement that is defended is that the lawful implementation of public procurements has a significant impact on the publicity and transparency of funds spent from the state budget and the European Union. As a result, the study reached the following conclusions: difficult process of administration, artificial barriers for the candidates, lack of disclosed corruption cases, no effective methods for internal and external control of the procurement process. Changes to the legal framework are proposed, relating to the introduction of electronic procedures, appointment of government experts, new rules for selection of candidates.
