Meaning of 'Konkursnoe proizvodstvo'

[FRISON Philippe]

In fact I read since in Dal', that Konkurs yavlyaetsya 'sobraniem
zaimodavtsev dlya rassmotreniya del nesostoyatel'nogo doljnika'.
I found the expression in Izvestya form January 21th, in an article about
Lebed' and his struggle with the brothers Tcherny for power and the control
of energy in the province.
As Soviet dictionaries only know the meaning of 'konkursny ekzamen' for a
'konkurs', I asked my question of this morning.

Would you have any clue for an exact meaning?

Best regards

Philippe
