Korean Abstract: 본 연구는 중남미 공공조달시장의 조달운영체계 및 시장현황을 분석하고, 국내 기업들의 진출 애로사항을 파악하여 공공조달시장 활성화를 위한 진출전략을 제시하는 것을 기본 목적으로 한다. 연구에서는 ‘공공조달’을 중요한 연구영역으로 삼고 있는데, 일반적으로 공공조달은 공공부문의 조달이라고 하여, 협의로 정부조달을 의미하기도 그러나 정부기관에 의한 조달(정부조달)뿐만 아니라 국제기구를 통해 공공재원으로 조성된 물품구매나 사업진행(국제조달) 등도 포함하기 때문에, 광의로는 정부조달과 국제조달을 모두 아우른다.
