Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This paper highlights the findings from the KNUT project (Electronic Procurement ofTelecommunications Services for the Swedish Public Sector). The project creates 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 procurement from centrally negotiated framework contracts versus local procurement with the help of the KNUT service.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)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.

Procurement after outsourcing in the public sector
- 2011
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Outsourcing has long term implications that sometimes can be difficult to foresee at the time of the deal. After the original outsourcing contract expires it becomes necessary to purchase the now outsourced functionality through recurring procurements. This is especially important in case of the public sector. This paper identifies three main types of outsourcing in the public sector: hiving off, outsourcing with taking over of the staff and without taking over of the staff.

Public Procurement and Small and Medium Enterprises
- 2011
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)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.
