Work Detail

Expression of Interest for Public Buyers Community Support Establishment and management of communities of practice on the Public Buyers Community - consultancy services on the subject matter of public procurement. Given the strategic role of public procurement in the new Political Guidelines for 2024-2029, the European Commission recognises its significant contribution to a resilient, sustainable and innovative European economy. With more than 250,000 public authorities across Europe spending around 2.3 trillion per year, public procurement stimulates growth, job creation and better public services in key areas such as energy, transport, waste management, health and education.To further unlock this potential, the Commission is continuing its review of the Public Procurement Directive. The reform aims to prioritise European products in strategic sectors and ensure the security of supply of essential technologies, goods and services. It will also modernise and streamline public procurement rules, making them more accessible, in particular for start-ups, innovators and local and regional authorities, while strengthening quality requirements and clarifying the interaction of public procurement rules in different EU legislation. The Public Buyers Community is an initiative supported by DG GROW to strengthen collaboration in the field of public procurement. Contracting authorities can obtain better prices and higher quality goods and services by purchasing together rather than individually. Public buyers can also benefit greatly from the exchange of knowledge and good practices across the EU. European Commissions Directorate for the Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship & SMEs (DG GROW) developed a Public Buyers Platform. This Platform is conceived as a multi-level digital structure combining public and members-only private spaces, to facilitate the exchange of knowledge on public procurement while fostering a safe and confidential environment. It offers subscribers access to the resources that are essential in shaping the future-forward landscape of public procurement in the EEA. The Platform is developed with the aim to enhance cooperation in public procurement - contracting authorities can obtain better prices as well as higher-quality goods and services by buying together instead of individually. Public buyers can also benefit greatly from the exchange of knowledge and best practices across the EU.
