COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
C0M<84) 474 final  
Brussels, 11 September 1984
REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE COUNCIL
on measures taken or proposed in order to improve the terms  
of competition for participation in EDF-financed contracts
C0MC84) 474 final

Article 44 of the Financial Regulation applicable to the fifth EDF,  
echoing a provision contained in earlier Financial Regulations,  
calls upon the Commission to inform the Council, where appropriate,  
of any measures it has taken or proposes to take to improve the  
terms of competition for participation in invitations to tender  
issued by the EDF.
In line with its two previous reports to the Council with regard to
' I
fourth EDF contracts, the Commission considers it appropriate to  
draw the Council's attention to the steps taken recently, in  
addition to those introduced since 1980 in accordance with the  
guidelines agreed with the Member States, in order to provide  
information for industrial circles on contract opportunities.
At the same time, the Commission is using this report as an  
opportunity for some observations on the results of invitations to  
tender for EDF contracts in the light of statistics on the  
breakdown of contracts as at 31 December 1983 (these statistics  
have been sent to the Council pursuant to the same provision of the  
Financial Regulation).
As the statistics communicated also relate to the results of  
competition for projects financed from the Community budget in the  
southern and eastern Mediterranean countries and the non-associated  
developing countries, the Commission, although not bound by the  
regulations to do so, considers it would be useful to add some  
comments on these as well.

C0MC83)5 of 13 January 1983.

I. INFORMATION
The measures taken since the end of 1980 in connection with information  
(operational summary of projects, publication of notices of invitation  
to tender in "Development Forum", quarterly notification of statistics  
relating to contracts, etc.), already described in the Commission's  
two previous reports to the Council, have continued as planned and call  
for no further comments from the Commission at this stage.
On the other hand, some new initiatives have been taken recently  
to reach businessmen. These have taken two forms: first, meetings
arranged in the Member States w>th Commission officials to discuss  
participation in contracts financed by the Community and second, the  
publication of invitation-to-tender notices via a computer network.
A. £.ÎQ9§_lD_î.he_Membe r_St at es
The idea of arranging meetings on Community-financed contracts in the  
developing countries and the opportunities these present to firms, at  
the initiative of a chamber of commerce, a producers' or exporters'  
association or a university and attended by Commission officials, is  
not a new one. Meetings of this nature have been arranged from time  
to time from the earliest days of the EDF, a greater effort being made  
whenever a new fund was set up. However, it is interesting to note  
that requests for such briefing sessions have been proliferating in  
recent months^ the Commission has attempted to meet such requests  
whenever possible. Thus, over an 18-month period (October 1982 -  
April 1984), 21 meetings involving business circles in eight of the  
Member States were organized. The list of these is as follows:

- 3 -
Bordeaux (Chamber of Commerce), October 1982  
Athens (Greek Government initiative), October 1982  
Bologna (Chamber of Commerce), December 1982  
London (Business School), January 1983
Milan (Istituto Cooperazione Economica Internazionale), June 1983
Piacenza (Chamber of Commerce), June 1983
London (Business International), June 1983
Rome (Cofinustria and Assafrica), June 1983
London (International Construction Group), July 1983
Athens (Greek Government initative), September 1983
Dublin (Irish Export Board), September 1983
Mannheim (Chamber of Commerce), November 1983
Stuttgart (Chamber of Commerce), November 1983
Dublin (Confederation of Irish Industry), November 1983
Brussels (British Chamber of Commerce for Belgium and Luxembourg),
November 1983
London (Business School), December 1983
Risley (UK - initiative of a Member of the European Parliament),
December 1983
Brussels (visit by a delegation from the Danish Federation of Industries),  
March 1984
Brussels (Fabrimetal), March 1984
Manchester (initiative of a Member of the European Parliament), March 1984  
Brussels (visit by a delegation from the Strasbourg Chamber of Commerce),  
April 1984.
In the majority of cases, the meetings were designed specifically to  
inform businesses of the opportunities for participating in Community-  
financed contracts in the developing countries. In other cases, contracts  
were just one of the subjects discussed in a broader context covering,  
for example, the operations of other project sponsors, or Community matters  
extending beyond the development policy context (public contracts, financial  
aid, etc.). Another point to note is that while most of the meetings were

- 4 -
held in the Member States, two of them - one involving a visit by some  
30 members of the Danish Federation of Industries and the other some  
15 delegates from the Strasbourg Chamber of Commerce - took place at  
Commission headquarters.
These meetings, which, according to the circumstances, bring together  
contractors, suppliers and/or consultants, have provided the Commission  
officials taking part with the occasion to explain the general background  
to development policy (cooperation with the ACP States, the southern and  
eastern Mediterranean countries, the non-associated developing countries)  
and then describe specific contract opportunities arising from that  
policy and the procedures involved, not forgetting the possibilities  
offered to small and medium-sized firms.
B. Invi_tation^to-tender_noti ces_avaUable_through_a_computer_network
In September 1983 the Commission inaugurated the TED (Tenders Electronic  
Daily) computer system, which carries all invitation-to-tender notices  
published in the Supplement to the Official Journal of the European  
Communities, including of course contracts in developing countries. The  
system, designed mainly to alleviate the difficulties faced by some firms  
because of their distance from Official Journal distribution centres, has  
the following features:
(a) all invitation-to-tender notices published in the four preceding  
months are stored in the data bank in the official languages of  
the Community;

- 5 -
(b) data is accessible the same morning that the notice appears in the  
Official Journal;
(c) TED can provide users with information on the basis of selective  
criteria (e.g. product or geographical area) corresponding to  
their particular interest;
(d) TED can be consulted via a computer terminal suitably linked,  
through the usual telephone channels, to a national data network  
or the Community's EURONET. The annual connection charge is  
approximately 500 ECU a year, in addition to which users pay about  
65 ECU a year for their subscription to TED and about 13 ECU for  
each hour of user time;
(e) TED can also be consulted via intermediaries, for example the  
Ministry of Economic Affairs in the Netherlands and certain chambers  
of commerce and professional bodies, a method which is more attrative  
to small- and medium-sized firms;
(f) users without a terminal can obtain information by telex (in French  
and English only) via a subsidiary system operated by the host ECHO.
The system is a clear improvement on the earlier one of publication in the  
Official Journal alone. Two of the advantages are that time can be saved  
in preparing bids if information is available immediately and firms can  
select specific information more easily.
The prospects opened up by this experiment have encouraged the Commission  
to look into the possibility of introducing a similar system for the  
information published in The Courier's Operational Summary (blue pages).

-  6 -
One effect of this would be to provide consultants with information  
at more frequent intervals than is possible through the bi-monthly  
magazine, thus allowing them to express in good time any interest  
they may have in operations for which short lists are to be drawn up.  
The idea of providing them with information updated frequently, say  
once a fortnight, via a computer network, has therefore been mooted.  
In the Commission's view, once a few technical snags have been ironed  
out, it will be possible to introduce such a service. As was the  
case when TED was launched, suitable publicity will be directed at  
the interested business circles.

II. ANALYSIS OF COMPETITION
Following its annual practice, the Commission has attached to the  
Communication on the results of invitations to tender tables indicating  
the breakdown by country of contracts awarded under the various EDFs  
and, for the first time this year, of those financed from the general  
budget in connection with projects in the southern and eastern  
Mediterranean countries and in the non-associated developing countries.
The figures contained in these tables have led the Commission to make  
the following comments:
A. European Development Fund
1. IX9Ë_2Î_£omget i.t i.on
In the tables below a breakdown, as at 31 December 1983, of fourth and  
fifth EDF works and supplies contracts is given, according to whether  
they were awarded following international invitations to tender or  
exceptional performance procedures (restricted invitations to tender,  
direct contract or direct labour).

For the fourth EDF, since the end of 1981, the respective percentages  
for international invitations to tender and exceptional procedures  
have remained remarkably steady, for both works and supplies  
contracts, with about 68% of all contracts resulting from  
international invitations to tender.
For the fifth EDF, it is interesting to note that for both types of  
contract and for contracts as a whole, at 31 December 1983 there was a  
76%/24% breakdown between international tendering and exceptional  
procedures, which marks a clear advance in the percentage of contracts  
awarded after international tendering since the end of 1982. The  
increase has been most noticeable in the area of supplies contracts,  
as the following table shows:
Fifth EDF 31.12.82 31.12.1983
1. All contracts
International 69.2% 75.8%
Exceptional 30.8% 24.2%
2. Works
International 72.6% 75.9%
Exceptional 27.4% 24.1%
3. Supplies
International 57% 75.5%
Exceptiona l 43% 24.5%
A significant part of the increase in the number of supplies contracts  
awarded after international tendering results from using the procedure  
for large orders of equipment required for Zaire's mining production,  
financed by Sysmin (40 million ECU).

2. Analysis of results
As there has been little change in each Member State's share of  
fourth EDF contracts since 31 December 1982 (see Annex, Table 1),  
the results with regard to this Fund do not call for any special  
comment.
However, the situation with regard to the fifth EDF (see Annex,
Tables 2, 3 and 4) indicates some significant changes.
(a) Overall, it should be noted that the share of the ACP States  
and other non-member countries has shrunk significantly, while the  
United Kingdom, and to a lesser extent France (now at the top of the  
table) and Italy, register a clear increase in the number of  
contracts won. As for the other Member States, Luxembourg and  
Greece have increased their share slightly, Belgium has stood still  
and the others have decreased their share slightly.
(b) For works contracts, the ACP States have again taken the lion's  
share, as a result of the impact of theirparticipation in  
exceptional performance procedures (Table 4). However, as Table 3  
shows, the ACP States have only been moderately successful in  
international invitations to tender for works contracts. The  
situation is the other way round for French, and to a lesser extent,  
German and Italian firms. The large jump registered by UK firms in  
1983, also, is attributable to their success in international  
invitations to tender, one of which was for a very large roadworks  
contract (worth some 24 million ECU) in Malawi.
(c) Concerning supplies contracts, the more or less equal position  
of some of the Member States noted at the end of 1982 was less marked  
by the end of 1983, mainly because of supplies contracts won by  
France and Germany; the proportion of contracts awarded to suppliers  
from Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom decreased noticeably  
(Table 2). A comparison of Tables 3 and 4 shows that this decline
in Italy's and the United Kingdom's competitiveness results from their  
lack of success in international invitations to tender, since both

-  10  -
countries have done well in the case of exceptional performance  
procedures. Another point to emerge is that, compared with results  
for fourth EDF contracts (Table 1) Belgian suppliers are still  
only taking a small share. Ireland, on the other hand, while not  
doing as well as in 1982, remains in a fairly satisfactory  
position. Greek suppliers are the only ones who have not yet  
tendered successfully and it is for this reason that the Commission  
has paid special attention to firms in this Member State when  
stepping up its information campaigns.
(d) Turning to technical cooperation contracts, the position has  
hardly altered since the end of 1982, apart from a marked drop in  
France's share, paralleled by an increase for UK and to a lesser  
degree Danish and Irish consultants. Greek consultants have also  
entered the picture for the first time.
B. Budget resources
For the first time this year, in addition to the communication  
required under EDF rules, the Commission has sent the Council  
information on the results of invitations to tender relating to  
projects financed in the Mediterranean countries and the non-associated  
developing countries (NADCI). The statistical breakdown of these  
contracts is set out in the Annex (Tables 5 and 6) and calls for the  
following comments by the Commission:
1. Southern and eastern Mediterranean
The results that have been gathered all relate to projects covered  
by the first Financial Protocol concluded with each of the countries  
concerned.^
These results, which the Commission is at present in the process  
of completing,- take account of the total volume of commitments,  
are partial only.

-Il­
ia) Looking at the contracts overall, it should be noted that 90% of  
them have been won by firms in Italy, France or the recipient countries  
themselves. This applies to both works and supplies contracts, these  
two categories themselves accounting for almost 90% of the operations  
financed in the Mediterranean countries to date.
(b) For works contracts, Italian firms have taken the lion's share,  
probably as a result of being firmly established in the southern  
Mediterranean countries. A tendency has been noted in recent months,  
however, for firms in the recipient countries themselves to take an  
increasingly large share, most of it through their success in winning  
international invitations to tender, rather than because of the  
exceptional performance procedures which accounted for ACP successes.
(c) In the case of supplies contracts - which account for a larger  
proportion of the total than under the EDF - the countries at the top  
of the list remain the same, though their actual percentages appear to  
fluctuate greatly. Thus France's share, which was 42.14% on
31 March 1984, had dropped to 27.86% by 31 December 1983, while Italy's  
had risen from 18.45% to 30.92%. Also noteworthy is the recipient  
countries' share, which;at around 23%, indicates much greater success  
than that of the ACP States in this area (less than 3%). Their  
performance tends to indicate that the Mediterranean countries are  
themselves quite capable of producing - on a significant scale - the  
supplies needed for Community-financed contracts. The limited  
success of countries such as Germany and the United Kingdom, however,  
is no reflection of their production capacity.
(d) Concerning technical cooperation contracts, while France and Italy  
still remain in the two first positions by a comfortable margin, and  
account for 50% of all services contracts between them, the recipient  
countries' share is much less here, while countries such as Germany,  
the Netherlands and the United Kingdom are doing much better here
than for the other types of contract.

-  12  -
2. Non-associated developing countries (NADC)
Here again, the data are still incomplete since the Commission is  
dependent, for some of the figures, on external sources such as the  
bodies responsible for managing projects. As in the case of the  
Mediterranean countries, the Commission is engaged in completing  
its information; the data on works and supplies contracts in  
Table 6 mainly relate to the results of international invitations  
to tender. Another point to note is the prominent place supplies  
contracts occupy in these statistics.
(a) Looking at the overall situation, it is the Netherlands,  
followed by Italy and Germany, which have the best results. Contrary  
to what was observed in the other areas, France and the recipient  
countries occupy a fairly low position in the table.
(b) Works contracts so far account for only a tiny share (3%) of  
total contracts, all of which is attributable to a German firm  
winning a contract for building a fish-processing plant in Mozambique.
(c) For the supplies contracts, the Netherlands heads the list because  
it has supplied substantial amounts of fertilizer (a product to which  
Irish suppliers also owe their success). Italian firms have also done  
well, partly due to fertilizer suppliers but with other suppliers also  
playing a part. The share won by German suppliers, too, is  
appreciable, whereas French and British suppliers have been much less  
successful. Greece has also succeeded in entering this area of  
competition, in connection with transporting some large quantities of  
fertilizer. This breakthrough could be the first step towards greater  
participation by Greece in Community-financed contracts in the  
developing countries.

- 13 -
(d) Where technical cooperation contracts are concerned, the chief  
feature is the prominence of four of the Member States, the United Kingdom  
being clearly in the lead with a share of nearly 30%. This is also  
the only field where French firms have obtained a significant share of  
contracts, compared with German and Dutch firms, which, as already  
observed, have a larger share of supplies contracts. Danish  
consultants, too, seem to show a preference for the NADC compared with  
other areas of activity.
★
* ★
This analysis shows up results which vary, sometimes strikingly, from  
one field to another. Another interesting point is that the situation  
is not a reflection of differences in procedure since, with a few minor  
exceptions, these are basically the same regardless of the area  
concerned. It is true that the amounts of money involved are not  
always of a comparable magnitude, at least as far as results obtained  
so far are concerned. For example, the total value of supplies  
contracts in the NADC is only 54% of the corresponding total for the  
ACP States (fifth EDF) but is three times that of the value of such  
contracts in the Mediterranean countries. Nevertheless there is evidence  
that particular Member States concentrate to varying degrees on one  
or other of the areas, with the same tendency - noted by the Commission  
for some years now - for countries whose firms put in the most bids  
tc be the most successful in winning contracts. It is this fact that
has the prompted the Commission to make special efforts aimed at  
those Member States whose level of participation is still lower than  
their potential would suggest, Greece being the most obvious example.  
Problems have arisen for this country in connection with translating  
invitation-to-tender notices or the Commission's information  
booklets on contracts and procedures, but improvements recently  
introduced should make participation by Greek firms in  
Community-financed contracts much easier in the near future.

-  14 -
However, in keeping with the efforts it has already deployed  
regarding general information measures, the Commission, even if it has  
to "go forth and preach the gospel", intends to be on the lookout  
for any initiative which will stimulate the interest of firms in  
these contracts.
