Project description
Increasing procurement of innovation adoption
The (public) procurement of innovation (POI) provides expertise, guidance, tools and networks connecting the business and public sectors. The EU-funded PROCEDIN project will accelerate POI adoption in two critical areas of innovation – circular economy and green mobility – in the context of European cities’ innovation for sustainability and resilience agendas. The project will support existing resources and its members’ extensive, pan-European professional networks and initiate new provisions to increase and mobilise POI motivation, knowledge and skills. PROCEDIN will identify key gaps in provision by mapping the complex landscape of growing expertise, experience and learning infrastructure, focusing on promoting enduring access to POI guidance and learning resources for buyers and vendors, and building leadership capacity for innovation.
Objective
PROcurement Capability - Embedding and Driving INnovation (PROCEDIN)
Legal reforms, European, national and regional policies, growing expertise, guidance, tools and case studies, and networks of early adopters are all key foundations for the adoption of (public) procurement of innovation (POI) practices, bringing together business and public sectors. If it is to drive deep, systemic change, the rate, scale and scope of POI adoption must increase. This project will accelerate POI in a specific domain covering two critical areas of innovation – circular economy and green mobility – in the context of European cities’ innovation for sustainability and resilience agendas.
The consortium will leverage existing resources and its members’ extensive, pan-European professional networks, and initiate new provisions, to enhance and mobilise POI motivation, knowledge and skills. By mapping the complex landscape of growing expertise, experience and learning infrastructure, and relating resources to the varied needs of different stakeholder archetypes (defined by organization type, extent of POI experience etc), key gaps in provision will be identified and addressed. Particular attention is paid to promoting enduring access to, and increased uptake of, POI guidance and learning resources for buyers and vendors, and to building leadership capacity for driving and embedding innovation through strategic procurement.
