Agenda

  • Proposing new model for procurement objects

Discussion

  • Since epo:Lot, epo:Procedure and epo:PlannedProcurementPart are all procurement objects with more properties in common, it was decided to make epo:ProcurementObject a gathering class only for these three objects.

  • A temporary definition that needs to be revised within the following WGM has been added to epo:ProcurementObject:

The whole or a division of goods, services or works to be procured.

Additional Information:
Anything that can specify the procurement content (i.e. goods, services, work) is a Procurement Object. _
_In a sense, such an "object" can constitute the "object of a contract".

To test whether something is a Procedure Object check if it can have a Purpose and/or CPV classification (The CPV establishes a single classification system for public procurement aimed at standardising the references used by contracting authorities and entities to describe the subject of procurement contracts.).

Note:
Procedure, seems to be an exception from this rule. Because it is a conflated term: it carries process properties and "purpose" properties.

  • Created epo:ProcurementElement as a gathering class for all procurement elements that are involved in the procurement process, including epo:ProcurementObject.

  • A temporary definition that needs to be revised within the following WGM has been added to epo:ProcurementElement:

Gathering class for critical/central elements in the procurement process.

TODO: add definition
Additional information:
Alias: ProcurementComponent

  • The following relations epo:isSubjectToProcedureTerm, epo:isSubjectToLotTerm are now sub-properies of epo:isSubjectToTerm predicate between epo:ProcurementObject and epo:Term.

  • Deleted epo:isSubjectToPlanningTerm predicate between epo:PlannedProcurementPart and epo:ProcessPlanningTerm.

  • The source class for epo:hasEstimatedValue was changed from epo:Lot and epo:Procedure to epo:ProcurementObject.

  • Both predicates, epo:refersToPlannedPart and epo:usesTechnique, were moved from epo:Lot and epo:Procedure to epo:ProcurementObject.
