Book excerpt: Public Technology Procurement and Innovation studies public technology procurement as an instrument of innovation policy. In the past few years, public technology procurement has been a relatively neglected topic in the theoretical and research literature on the economics of innovation. Similarly, preoccupation with `supply-side' measures has led policy-makers to avoid making very extensive use of this important `demand-side' instrument. These trends have been especially pronounced in the European Union. There, as this book will argue, existing legislation governing public procurement presents obstacles to the use of public technology procurement as a means of stimulating and supporting technological innovation. Recently, however, there has been a gradual re-awakening of practical interest in such measures among policy-makers in the EU and elsewhere. For these and other related measures, this volume aims to contribute to a serious reconsideration of public technology procurement from the complementary standpoints of innovation theory and innovation policy.

Book Synopsis Public Procurement and Innovation by : Max Rolfstam

Download or read book Public Procurement and Innovation written by Max Rolfstam and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Max Rolfstam examines the increasing emphasis on public procurement as a means to stimulate innovation and the theoretical implications of this policy development. While regular public procurement may be regarded as the outcome of anonymous market processes, public procurement of innovation must be understood as a special case of innovation, where social processes, and consequently the institutions governing these social processes, need to be considered. This book contributes to our understanding with a detailed institutional analysis of the public procurement of innovation. The author draws on an institutional framework that underscores the importance of conducting a multilevel institutional analysis. Unlike earlier studies that reduced public procurement challenges to a legal issue, this book offers insights of more holistic nature. Academics, students and researchers with an interest in innovation policy will find this book to be an informative and fascinating read. It will also provide an invaluable reference tool on how public procurement can be used as an innovation policy tool for policymakers at both national and EU levels.

Science and Technology Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Science and Technology Committee reports its findings on the use of public procurement as a tool to stimulate innovation. In 2009-10, public procurement was valued at over £236 billion, approximately 15% of GDP. Government is "the single largest customer" in the UK. This magnitude of expenditure provides enormous potential to stimulate innovation and encourage economic growth - a potential which, according to the Committee, is not being realised. Too often, the public sector falls back on tried and tested solutions and new ideas are stifled by a culture of risk-aversion and overly burdensome procurement processes. Having investigated departments across the board and the Department for Transport in particular, the Committee calls for a "root and branch" change in attitude towards adopting innovative solutions throughout the public sector. It wants the Government to find innovative procurement solutions to achieve better value for money, promote economic growth, and encourage the translation of scientific research into innovative goods and services. The report also recommends appointing a Minister to have overall charge of procurement and innovation, and a Minister within each department with specific responsibility for innovation and procurement in relation to departmental spend.
