The article states that the high share of public procurement in public expenditures by the author is an indicator of how important it is to comply with the legislation in the implementation of Public Procurement, and that these expenditures indicate the degree of social danger of illegal actions in the field of Public Procurement.

It is also concluded that the object of the content of crimes in the field of public procurement is literally directed against the economic foundations of the state, in other words, criminal aggression undermines the economy of a particular country. In addition, it is noted that socially dangerous acts in the field of public procurement, by their nature, are among the crimes not only of a national, but also of an international nature and pose a threat not only to the financial and economic stability of a single state in the context of globalization, but also to the international community.

It is noteworthy that in the criminal legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan there is no clear category of crimes in the field of Public Procurement. It is determined based on the nature of the Committed Act. Although the current criminal law does not provide for a concrete socially dangerous act related to "public procurement", but socially dangerous acts in the field of Public Procurement exist today in society as a crime phenomenon. In this context, proposals related to the proposal to criminalize offenses in the field of Public Procurement were analyzed.
