The Challenge
Challenge statement
Morocco's Supreme Audit Institution (Cour des Comptes / CDC) and its twelve Regional Courts of Audit (Cours Régionales des Comptes / CRC) are seeking innovative companies to develop a solution automating public procurement controls at the three stages most exposed to irregularity risks: competitive tendering, offer evaluation, and contract award. Note: These challenge statements reflect the CDC/CRC's perspective and are provided for reference. Innovative approaches and alternative methods to achieve the intended outcomes are encouraged.
Challenge — Public Procurement Audit
Automate regulatory compliance, ethics, and transparency controls across competitive tendering, offer evaluation, and contract award stages, by systematically exploiting structured data from the Public Procurement Portal (Portail des Marchés Publics) and unstructured documents from tender files. The solution must shift from manual sample-based analysis to exhaustive, systematic coverage of all contracts within a mission scope.
- Automated execution of regulatory compliance tests on competitive tendering, evaluation, and award stages, based on the CDC audit guide and regulatory framework
- Semantic analysis of contractual documents (specifications, evaluation grids, commission minutes) to detect biased specifications, discriminatory criteria, or insufficient publication deadlines
- Detection of ethics breach signals, particularly regarding probity obligations (Déclarations d'Obligation de Probité) of commission members
- Alerts dashboard with full traceability: data source, triggering control rule, expected value vs. observed value
- Automated cross-referencing of Public Procurement Portal (Portail des Marchés Publics / PMP) data with tender files
