Abstract: Public money is public income that the state collects on the basis of ownership and financial sovereignty in the form of taxes, contributions, duties and/or fees. These above all include taxpayers' money that must be used in a transparent and rational manner. One of the most important ways to dispose of public money is certainly the implementation of public procurement procedures, because according to the European Commission's report, the EU member states spend one fifth of the GDP annually on the procurement of goods, services and works. An extremely important segment of public procurement in the Republic of Croatia, the youngest EU member, is the implementation of simple procurement procedures which on an annual basis amount to approximately 23% of the total value of public procurement. However, the regulatory framework in the area of public procurement in the Republic of Croatia does not lay down the rules and criteria for the implementation of procedures for simple procurement, but leaves the possibility for contracting authorities to determine their own rules and criteria by means of general acts. Such a regulatory framework creates favourable conditions for various malversations and agreements, and especially for the development of corruption. This makes such a system ineffective and non-transparent, which does not comply with the EU directives and the general principles of public procurement. The purpose of this document is to present a tripartite model of simple procurement procedures that has been developed as a result of research, enabling a more rational usage of public money. Proposed tripartite model is based on three categories: financial thresholds, transparency of procurement procedures, and criterion for selecting bids in the form of the most economically advantageous tender. Its application primarily affects the efficiency and transparency of the implementation of simple procurement procedures, the reduction of risk from corruption.Furthermore, by applying this model one respects the principles of public procurement and what is even more important, the usage of public or taxpayer's money is more rational
