A Sykhiv district employee received the Prozorro Awards 2024 for her successful procurement efforts.

The Deputy Head of the Public Utilities Department of the Sykhiv District Administration, Oksana Stadnyk, won the "Champion for Success" nomination (the client with the highest percentage of successful procurements) at the Prozorro Awards 2024 in the field of public procurement. This was reported on Saturday, December 21, by the Lviv City Council.

Oksana Stadnyk successfully conducted 55 public procurements in just one year. Additionally, she managed to save over 35 million UAH in 2024, which amounts to 20% of the expected value of the procurements.

“The results demonstrated by the winner – Oksana Stadnyk, are fantastic! This is something to be envious of! It sets a standard to aspire to! Everyone should strive for this,” said Valeriy Sherhin, Director of the Department of Public Procurement and Competitive Policy at the Ministry of Economy.

The Deputy Director of the USAID Office for Democracy and Governance, Kori Johnston, emphasized: “Oksana's story embodies what Prozorro stands for. With only two people in her procurement team, Oksana successfully conducted 55 public procurements in one year. This is an impressive achievement for such a small team. Despite the challenges, she was able to save over 35 million UAH in 2024, representing 20% of the expected value of the procurements. Importantly, there were no complaints regarding her work, demonstrating the integrity and transparency that the Prozorro platform ensures.”

Oksana Stadnyk has been working at the Sykhiv District Administration since 2009 and is responsible for conducting tenders for the Public Utilities Department. Since 2016, when procurements began to be conducted through Prozorro, she has carried out all procurements via open bidding. Alongside her, there is another employee who handles procurements for the housing department of the Sykhiv District Administration, but their number has significantly decreased now.

Moreover, the city of Lviv is also among the leaders in utilizing the electronic system "Prozorro.Sales," conducting online auctions for small privatization. This initiative allows the city to create even more new businesses, products, and services, along with new jobs and tax revenue for the budget. Last year, Lviv became the first city in Ukraine to earn one billion UAH from small privatization.
