What is the Central Administrative Court of Contractual Resources (TACRC)?

Appeals and Challenges

The Central Administrative Court of Contractual Resources - Tacrc for friends - is that Spanish agency that monitors that no one cheats in public competitions. Basically, if your company is involved in a tender and see something strange, type dirty guys or favoritisms, this court is the one you have to go to complain. They take care that the whole process is clean and fair, and yes, that everyone has the same opportunities, not just the usual ones.

The TACRC has existed since 2010, when someone was lit the bulb with the Sustainable Economy Law and said: "Hey, we need someone to put order in this eggplant of public hiring." And since then, there are, cutting the cod and preventing tenders from being a jungle without law.

Your main work? Solve special resources. That is, when a company feels cheated or sees that the hiring body has done something chungo or illegal, they can be planted before the TACRC and ask for justice. It doesn't matter if you are the neighborhood company or a multinational, if you have given unfair pumpkins, you can turn.

But be careful, they not only stay there. They also deal with more general claims, such as when a company suspects that there has been discrimination or if there are doubts about the validity of a public contract. Come on, if something smells bad, there they are to investigate it.

And beware of the data: the TACRC can stop the bidding process if you see that the thing looks ugly, or even suspend the execution of a contract. And when they decide something, it is not optional: the hiring bodies have to obey, yes or yes.

In summary, the TACRC is key for companies not to be trapped in scams or favoritism. If you are in the world of public tenders, you better meet them and know how they work, because one day they save you the skin.
