The author analyzes the legislative requirements for mandatory electronic procurement by the central procurement management body. The impact of digitalization and centralization of procurement on reducing corruption risks is described. The possibilities that used in the law enforcement practice of the Republic of Korea to identify signs of a bid-rigging are disclosed. Special attention is paid to the legal responsibility for the bid-rigging in public procurement. The provisions of the Korean legislation on exclusion of suppliers as a means of fighting corruption are evaluated.
