2.1 Procedure

Title : Strategic Procurement Training for Public Buyers
Description : This call for tenders is divided into 2 lots: Lot 1- Strategic procurement training for public buyers The objective of this training initiative is to encourage contracting authorities to build an internal culture favourable to innovation, while covering also legal and practical procurement aspects. This initiative aims at providing specialised training to (i) public buyers’ staff and to (ii) decision makers at both technical and political levels in order to build knowledge and capacity for execution of strategic procurement (with special emphasis on innovation at all levels of the public organisation). One of the avenues identified for improving strategic procurement uptake in general and public procurement of innovation in particular is via cultural change in the public sector. Through the implementation of the action, the participants will develop skills to increase their technical capacity on innovation at all levels of the public organisation. Lot 2 - SME friendly strategic procurement training for central purchasing bodies (CPBs) This initiative aims at improving the administrative capacity of the staff with key procurement functions in the Member States. The initiative is expected to generate a significant impact, given the procurement volume of CPBs operating in Europe at national, regional, local, or sectoral level. Increasing the administrative capacity of staff will also facilitate access of SMEs to public procurement and foster the use of strategic procurement (procurement of innovation, green procurement, and social procurement), providing SMEs that participate in these procurement markets with greater opportunities for growth and scale up.
