Czech term or phrase: Centrální nákupní úřad
Dobrý den,

na českém Ministerstvu obrany existuje tzv. "Centrální nákupní úřad" (vedle regionálních, anglické stránky lze nalézt zde: ). Tento termín byl dosud překládán jako Central Acquisition Office, ale nikde jinde jsem podobný termín neviděl. Myslím, že Jižní Korea měla "Central Acquisition Bureau", což by možná byl vhodnější překlad.

Napadá vás lepší, vhodnější překlad českého názvu tohoto úřadu? Existují obdobné úřady s podobným jménem i jinde?

Předem moc děkuji za komentáře a rady.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I assume "procurement" would be better, but since they use "acquisition" themselves, I'm going to use it as well - in spite of the fact it might look Czenglish. Thank you for your response anyway! :-)
