Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Public procurement is one of the most powerful economic levers available to governments, directing over 2 trillion in the EU alone. For decades, this power has been focused on achieving administrative efficiency, transparency, and the lowest possible cost. While these goals remain critical, they are no longer sufficient. Today, public authorities are on the front lines of solving "grand societal challenges"-from climate change and public health crises to digital transformation and social equity. Achieving these missions is impossible with yesterday's products and services. Innovation is no longer a "nice-to-have"; it is a core requirement.This book serves as a practical manual for Public Buyers and Agency Leaders to shift their role from passive "administrators" to active "Market Catalysts." It challenges the status quo of compliant but mediocre bids by demonstrating that the single most powerful tool a buyer possesses is how they define their needs.By shifting from precise technical specifications (which lock in old solutions and favor incumbents) to Outcome-Based Specifications (which define a problem and invite new solutions), agencies can directly influence the market. This shift is the key to unlocking two distinct types of innovation: Incremental Innovation: Making existing products and services better, cheaper, and more efficient.Radical Innovation: Developing entirely new solutions to solve complex problems in ways we haven't seen before.The guide operationalizes the Supply Chain Innovation Procurement (SCIP) framework, providing step-by-step instructions for market engagement, tender design, and evaluation. It specifically tackles the "SME Enigma," offering strategies to lower barriers for small, innovative businesses that are often excluded by red tape but are essential for agility and fresh ideas.Beyond strategy, the book introduces the ecosystem required for transformation, including strategic organisational restructuring and the use of AI-driven platforms like OppLens. These tools allow buyers to gain market intelligence, predict bidder behavior, and democratise access to government contracts. This is a hands-on roadmap for moving beyond simply "buying stuff" to becoming a strategic driver of the innovation your community needs. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
