• Validity period (generally 1January2021 31December2021).

4. Determination of Prices

The prices are derived from a combination of methods:

• Historical Contract Data: Prices from previous procurement contracts that were transparent and free of disputes.
• Market Surveys: Competitive quotations obtained from at least three verified suppliers.
• National Price Indices: Adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and specific commodity indices published by Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS).
• Expert Evaluation: Technical panels review and validate the proposed prices to ensure they reflect realistic procurement costs.

5. Roles and Responsibilities

Implementation is coordinated by the Regency Treasury Office (Bagian Keuangan) together with the Procurement Unit (Biro Pengadaan). Their main duties include:

• Compiling and updating the price list every year.
• Disseminating the list to all relevant agencies through the official website and internal circulars.
• Providing training sessions for procurement officers on how to apply the standard prices.
• Monitoring compliance and reporting any deviation to the Regents Office.

6. Exceptions and Adjustments

While the SPGS is mandatory, the regulation allows for limited exceptions under clearly defined conditions:

• Urgent Procurement: When immediate action is required, agencies may procure at market price provided they obtain approval from the Regents Office within 24hours.
• Specialized Goods/Services: Items not covered in the standard list (e.g., highly specialized medical devices) can be priced based on a separate market analysis, subject to validation by the Procurement Unit.
• Price Fluctuations: If a commodity experiences a sudden price surge (e.g., fuel price spikes), agencies may request a temporary price adjustment that must be justified with market data and approved by the Treasury Office.

7. Enforcement and Sanctions

Noncompliance may lead to administrative sanctions, including:

• Rejection of the procurement request.
• Financial penalties ranging from 5% to 20% of the contract value.
• Suspension of the responsible officer from procurement activities for up to two years.
• Referral to the Regional Ombudsman for possible disciplinary action.

These measures are intended to reinforce a culture of integrity and to protect public funds.
