Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The public sector is the biggest buyer on all national markets. The focus on public procurement and especially electronic public procurement has for several reasons increased in later years with more choices due to more competition nationally and internationally, rapid technical development which provides competing solutions, buying services instead of building own solutions etc.Public procurement aims in the same way as the private sector’s purchasing for the best possible outcome in the short and long run. However, public procurement often also aims for achieving certain political goals, which can result in an array of consequences both for the procuring organization as well as for businesses and citizens.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper explores and discusses how the use of electronic ways to purchase can change and influence the development of public procurement. Electronic public procurement makes it possible not only to increase efficiency of public procurement processes but it can also influence the broader development of both buying and selling organisations. The consequences for public procurement stakeholders as well as pros and contras of this development are investigated.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper highlights the findings from the KNUT project (Electronic Procurement of Telecommunications Services for the Swedish Public Sector). The project created a service to make the whole public procurement process electronically from analysis of needs, through development of request for proposal (RfP), contract administration and feed back, as well as a model for public procurement of telecommunications services outgoing from end-users’ and organisational needs. The study includes a detailed analysis of the procurement process. Among the results is a new way of looking at the pros and cons of public procurement from centrally negotiated framework contracts versus local procurement with the help of the KNUT service.

Public Procurement and Small and Medium Enterprises
- 2011
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The public sector as the biggest buyer on national markets is an important client for and enterprise and for the SMEs in particular.For the SMEs to be a tenderer for governmental contracts as well as for the public agencies to choose a SME as a supplier can have considerable consequences – both positive and negative. To be a supplier for the public sector means recognition and can give a boost for new contracts. For the public agency it can mean to receive an innovative, cost reducing solution. But it can also be risky for both the SME and the public agency. By choosing an enterprise without previous documented records can put an agency in the situation of not fulfilling its obligations towards the general public and for the SME to go bankrupt.
