The aim of the research was to evaluate transparency initiatives and anti-corruption methods of the companies\u00a0that won\u00a0public procurement bidders of defense and national security (2014-2015).

Between 2014 and 2015, the total value of the contracts equaled 90,6 million EUR, which is 57% of all the defense and national security public contract spending during the period.<\/p>\n
