If you work under 223-FZ, now is the time to learn the main alternative procurement method. This is organized trading on the exchange — a mechanism recognized by the Ministry of Finance and the Federal Antimonopoly Service. It is an alternative to traditional procurement procedures with advantages: no intermediaries, with market pricing, full automation of processes, and reduced regulatory risks.

Operational efficiency. Instead of weeks spent preparing documentation, publishing notices, and reviewing bids, a deal can be completed in seconds, with a few clicks. Fair prices. The exchange mechanism eliminates intermediary chains and creates real competition among anonymous participants, resulting in a true market price rather than a negotiated price.

Legal clarity. The procurement of exchange goods on organized trading is expressly excluded from regulation 223-FZ, Clause 2, Part 4, Article 1 of Law No. 223-FZ. The customer may procure on the basis of 325-FZ 'On Organized Trades' or include in the procurement regulation an exclusion by analogy with Clause 2, Part 4 of Article 1 of Law No. 223-FZ. A notable bonus: the scope covers not only the goods but their delivery. What can be procured on Petersburg Exchange?

coal, gas, petroleum products and oilfield chemicals; cement, timber, rebar, rolled metal and pipes; mineral fertilizers, sugar and even wool.
