Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the content of the official web sites of Croatian counties, in order to establish the level of transparency in the implementation of bargain purchase. Results show that only three counties out of total of twenty one county have published calls for tenders for all procedures of bargain purchase on their websites. Thirteen counties do not publish calls for tenders on their web sites which makes them non-transparent in regards of the realization bargain purchase. Although the other five counties partially publish the calls for tenders on their websites their transparency in the implementation of bargain purchase is not adequate, as there remains a large amount of funds below the thresholds which they define as the limit for publication on the websites to be spent in non-transparent mode. The research results show that 54.315.594,99 HRK, of bargain purchase procurement will not be published on the websites of counties consequently leading to inability to submit tenders by interested business subjects.
