초록

입찰담합은 공공건설공사에서 빈번히 발생하는 문제로, 관련 당국에서는 적절한 제재가 필요하다. 본 연구는 민사적 측면과 형사적 측면을 모두 고려하여 입찰담합을 차단하기 위한 최적의 집행모델의 필요성을 분석하였다. 최근에는 공정거래위원회에서 과징금을 부과하고 발주처에서 민사상 손해배상 소송을 제기하는 등 공정거래법상 제재가 중첩되는 경우가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 건설공사 입찰담합에 대한 중복제재 가능성에 대한 과징금 및 보상체계의 실효성을 평가하는 것이다. 공정거래법상 중복제재가 제도개선에 도움이 된다는 결과를 얻었다. 다만 국가가 원고인 손해배상 소송에서는 과징금 및 형량 등을 고려해야 하며, 공동행위에 대한 과징금을 감면하고, 확정판결 후 과징금을 환급하며, 과징금 부과 시 손해배상 제도 등을 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 제재 및 보상의 개선 효과를 분석하여 공공건설공사의 입찰담합을 억제하기 위한 효율적인 집행모델 개발에 기여한다.

Bid-rigging is a common issue in public construction projects, and appropriate sanctions are required from the relevant authorities. This study analyzes the need for an optimal enforcement model to prevent bid-rigging by considering both civil and criminal aspects. Recently, there have been overlapping sanctions under the Fair Trade Act, such as fines imposed by the Fair Trade Commission and civil lawsuits filed by the client for damages. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of penalty surcharges and compensation systems for preventing bid-rigging, and to consider the possibility of overlapping sanctions in public construction projects. It was found that overlapping sanctions under the Fair Trade Act can be helpful in improving the system. However, in cases where the state is the plaintiff for damages in a lawsuit, it is necessary to consider the penalty surcharge and sentence, reduce the penalty surcharge for joint acts, refund the surcharge after a final judgment, and consider the damage compensation system when imposing a surcharge. This study contributes to the development of an efficient enforcement model to suppress bid-rigging in public construction projects by analyzing the improvement effects of sanctions and compensation.
