What is the contractor's profile?

Basic Concepts

Ok, let's put a little spark to this, because the original text seems taken from a boring manual of public administration. Look, the famous "Contractor profile" is basically the virtual plank where public entities release everything they will hire: contests, awards, contracts and all that roll. Do you want to catch a work with the City Council, the Diputación or any public entity? Well, play this digital space, yes or yes.

What is it for? Well, above all, so that there are no mamoneos (in theory, of course) and everyone has access to the same information: there you see what they ask, how much they pay, when they want to do it and according to what criteria they will decide who they give the curro. So, if you are a company and you want to catch Cacho in a tender, you have to be in the parrot of the contracting party. It is your window to the world of public contracts.

And be careful, this is not a whim. It is required by law, specifically article 63 of the Public Sector Contract Law. Come on, if you are a public entity and you do not have your contracting profile well mounted and updated, you can fall a pure.

But do not be wrong: this invention is not only for companies to sign up, but so that the whole process is transparent, without trap or cardboard. Thus, all those who want to compete have the same information and can present their proposals on equal terms. That is, in theory, the grace of the matter.

A Friend Council: If you have a company and the idea of catching a public contract is cool, don't be vague. Get every two for three in the profiles of the contracting party of the entities that interest you. So you do not miss a chance and you have plenty of time to prepare all the paperwork and not go at the last minute with hurry and fudge.

And, by the way, do not focus only on putting the lowest price. Many competitions also value quality, deadlines, if you are an echo-friendly and those things. So, cure it and presents a proposal that stands out in everything, not only in the cheap.

Total, that the contractor's profile is the starting point to move in the world of public procurement. If you want to play in that league, put on the batteries, be attentive and take all the juice to that tool. If not, others will pass you over without disheveled.
