Public procurement affects a substantial share of world trade
flows, amounting to 1000 billion euros per year. In the EU, the
public purchase of works, goods and services has been estimated to
account on average for 16 percent of GDP. The novelty of this book
is that it focuses on the new European Union Directives approved in
2014 by the EU Parliament. The book consists of original
contributions related to four specific themes of interest to the
procurers' day-to-day role in modern public purchasing
organizations - both economists and lawyers - allowing for relevant
exchanges of views and "real time" interaction. The four sections
which characterize the book are Life-cycle Costing in Public
Procurement; Calculating Costs and Savings of Public Procurement;
Corruption and Probity in Public Procurement and Public Procurement
and International Trade Agreements: CETA, TTIP and beyond. These
themes have been chosen for their current relevance in relation to
the new European Public Procurement Directives and beyond. The
original format features, as is the case with the first three
volumes, an introductory exchange between leading academics and
practitioners, from differing disciplines. It offers a series of
sequential interactions between economists, lawyers and technical
experts who supplement one another, so as to enrich the liveliness
of the debate and improve the mutual understanding between the
various professions. This essential guide will be of interest to
policymakers, academics, students and researchers, as well as
practitioners working in the field of EU public procurement.
