The article examines the features of procurement automation as a mechanism for improving the enterprise's activities, considers the work of the electronic procurement system ProZorro as a tool to increase accountability and transparency, reduce corruption and improve the business climate in Ukrainian enterprises. The ProZorro system operates on the basis of a hybrid cloud. The central ProZorro web portal contains an e-auction module and a central database hosted on a cloud server. Access to the eauction system is through electronic platforms. New opportunities are being added to the e-procurement system: through the introduction of monitoring and analytics, training and sales modules. It is potentially possible to develop services in the system because it is flexible and allows you to increase or decrease the needs of the services provided. The procurement process from the customer, in addition to placing the announcement on the electronic platform and conducting the tender, determining the winner and concluding the contract, consists of many stages - planning, justifying the need to purchase, including it in the financial plan, requirements for tender documents. In order to coordinate work in this direction, the enterprise should develop procurement regulations, identifying those responsible for the preparation of a particular area of procurement, means of communication between these persons, identify priority areas and schedule when and what will be purchased. The author identified the shortcomings of the ProZorro system, considered the prospects for its improvement, explored the legal framework for e-procurement and important steps towards harmonization of Ukrainian legislation with European standards. Qualitative planning of the procurement process from the customer will contribute to the improvement of procurement. This will effectively distribute responsibilities among employees, establish links between departments, structure paperwork, optimize the process of drawing up and approving a procurement plan, justify procurement needs, help to correctly determine its subject and facilitate timely and correct preparation of tender documents at the enterprise. The proposed changes are aimed at improving the electronic procurement system and increasing liability for violations of applicable law.
