Note: size of circles is not relevant!

In Public Procurement:

  • suppliers
  • “customers”
  • employees

Are the same circle* and this is a HUGE specificity of Public Procurement!

*With some very limited exceptions:

  • international suppliers do not pay taxes (if we put aside import taxes!)
  • tax evasion (it exists!)
  • people never ever using public services (does that exist?)
