Using a comparative framework, this volume presents case studies of
issues of public procurement and discusses how procurement
professionals and policy makers in different regions are responding
to these challenges. This book discusses current issues in public
procurement. Over the past few decades, public procurement has had
to evolve conceptually and organizationally in the face of
unrelenting budget constraints, government downsizing, public
demand for increased transparency in public procurement, as well as
greater concerns about efficiency, fairness and equity. Procurement
professionals have also had to deal with a changeable climate
produced by emerging technology, environmental concerns, and
ongoing tension between complex regional trade agreements and
national socioeconomic goals. The first section discusses
innovation and reforms in public procurement and how practitioners
are adapting to and making use of new technologies. The second
section addresses the challenges of maintaining transparency,
equity, and fairness in public procurement. The final section
discusses preferential public procurement and introduces strategies
for building sustainable public procurement systems. By combining
theory and analysis with evidence from the real world, this book is
of equal use to academics, policy makers, and procurement
professionals.
