Specialized Agency Inspection for Procurement Materials

Overview
For procurement materials requested by purchasing agencies that have been designated and announced by the Public Procurement Service (PPS) as subject to specialized agency inspection, when the purchase amount exceeds a certain threshold, a nationally accredited inspection agency entrusted with the task conducts the inspection and issues the results.
By entrusting delivery inspections, previously conducted in-house by purchasing agencies lacking sufficient expertise, to external professional inspection agencies, this system ensures the quality of major procurement materials and enhances the objectivity and effectiveness of delivery inspections.
