### Electronic Catalog
### Electronic catalog

[EU directive 2014/24/EU](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex%3A32014L0024) on public procurement categorises an electronic catalog as a techniques, or instrument, for electronic and aggregated procurement and describes an electronic catalog as:

> *...a format for the presentation and organisation of information in a manner that is common to all the participating bidders and which lends itself to electronic treatment*

:class: hint
The [Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply](https://www.cips.org/en-NZ/knowledge/procurement-topics-and-skills/ecommerce---systems/e-sourcing--e-procurement-systems-p2p/catalogue-management/) describes an electronic catalog as:
.. markdown::
> *a web resource that provides information on products and services offered and sold by a vendor, and supports on-line ordering and payment capabilities.*
Electronic catalogs can often be found in more complicated procedures, usually together with framework agreements and involving multiple bidders. However, on their own, they are simply an electronic format (typically prescribed by the buyer) that participants in the contracting process must follow when exchaning information about technical specifications, evaluation criteria, bids, lots, etc. As such, catalogs do not influence the relationship between awards, contracts, buyers and suppliers.
