Honestly, I can't understand what it is trying to ask me.

I am learning engineering professional practice. I am studying this chapter(link above). What is the question trying to ask to  me? Can you tell me about that? I have a book about it as well but I can't find what keyword I think I should search..

A complete answer would be very long and depends on local jurisdictions. In general:

Government procurement or public procurement is the procurement of goods, services and works on behalf of a public authority, such as a government agency. To prevent fraud, waste, corruption, or local protectionism, the laws of most countries regulate government procurement to some extent.  (paraphrased from wikipedia)

Local policy over here:

Public procurement must be efficient and legally certain and make use of market competition. It must also promote innovative solutions and take environmental and social considerations into account. (https://www.government.se/government-policy/public-procurement/)

I note that this for some reason is posted in engineering so I'll avoid starting a politic discussion .
