ANAC awards Sogin the Contracting Authority qualification

01 August 2023
Sogin has obtained from the Italian National Anti-Corruption Authority (ANAC) the qualification as a contracting authority, a recognition that attests to its competence and professionalism in managing, directly and independently, the entire process of acquiring services, supplies and works.

The qualification of contracting authorities was introduced pursuant to Articles 62 and 63 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 36/2023 (New Code of Public Contracts), with the aim of increasing quality and efficiency in the management of tenders. Sogin is therefore registered in the ANAC list of contracting authorities, which dictates, under the new Procurement Code, the requirements for qualification and the criteria for obtaining points.

The company has obtained the highest level of qualification, allowing the contracting authority to issue tenders without any amount limits for services and supplies (level SF1) and for works (level L1). In particular, the company recorded the highest performance in the three criteria considered: capacity for technical-administrative design of procedures; capacity to entrust and control the entire procedure; capacity to verify contractual execution, including testing and commissioning.

Along with Sogin, the subsidiary Nucleco has also successfully completed the procedure to qualify as a contracting authority and is included in the ANAC list.

The Sogin Group is therefore confirmed as a national reference for activities characterising the process of acquiring goods, services or works, meeting high standards of quality, efficiency, professionalism and ensuring respect for the principles of cost-effectiveness, efficiency, timeliness and fairness.
