Public Procurement Review of Mexico's PEMEX
Adapting to Change in the Oil Industry
This report on Mexico’s state-owned oil company PEMEX is part of a series of OECD reviews of Mexico’s procurement institutions. PEMEX’s procurement system was overhauled after Mexico’s 2013 Energy Reform opened up the sector to private participation, requiring PEMEX to compete in an open market. Using the 2015 Recommendation of the OECD Council on Public Procurement as a benchmark, the review assesses the effectiveness and integrity of PEMEX’s entire procurement system while identifying a series of actions for improvement. A state-of-the art procurement system can not only help PEMEX achieve value for money on a sustainable basis, but also support other social and environmental policy objectives in Mexico.

Foreword and acknowledgements
In an economic environment characterised by historically low oil prices, oil and gas companies such as Petróleos Mexicanos (PEMEX) face tremendous challenges in maintaining and improving their productivity. In a sector where 40 cents of every dollar earned is spent on raw materials and services, procurement systems are central to a company’s competitiveness. Alongside strategies to maximise value creation, procurement frameworks are needed to safeguard the company from mismanagement and corruption. Furthermore, fierce competition among international oil companies requires flexible and agile frameworks to unlock the innovation potential of the market and develop sustainable and strategic alliances.
