Detecting collusion on highway procurement

This paper proposes a procedure to detect collusion in asymmetric first-price procurement. The main objective is twofold.

Este artículo tiene dos objetivos principales. En primer lugar, desarrollar una metodología para detectar la presencia de cárteles usando el enfoque estructural. En segundo lugar, aplicar esta metodología a una base de datos de licitaciones para la construcción de carreteras en California. A través de la comparación de un modelo de competencia y un modelo de colusión se encuentra evidencia que sugiere que un subgrupo de firmas podría haber estado involucrado en un esquema colusivo.Fil: Gabrielli, Maria Florencia.
