Abstract
The paper examines the idea of using a tendering procedure for the supply of postal services in the context of existing Polish legislation on postal services and public procurement. Liberalisation of postal services in EU law imposed an obligation to harmonize national legal systems. Thus, supply of postal services shall fall into the scope of the competitive procedures of public procurement. The effi ciency and quality of postal services would be ensured by the conduct of a proper tender procedure in particular by the use of a functional description of the object of the contract and the use of the ‘best value for money’ rule as the most infl uential award criterion. The author presents an empirical study analysing whether the existing legislation forms an effective public procurement system for the supply of postal services.
