Despite all the above, I think the most appropriate term here is Marcela\'s \"contracting authority\"

\"Public contracts are defined as contracts for pecuniary interest concluded in writing between a supplier, contractor or service provider and a public purchaser, termed a \"contracting authority\" in the Directives.\"
