This book discusses current issues in public procurement. Over the past few decades, public procurement has had to evolve conceptually and organizationally in the face of unrelenting budget constraints, government downsizing, public demand for increased transparency in public procurement, as well as greater concerns about efficiency, fairness and equity. Procurement professionals have also had to deal with a changeable climate produced by emerging technology, environmental concerns, and ongoing tension between complex regional trade agreements and national socioeconomic goals. The first section discusses innovation and reforms in public procurement and how practitioners are adapting to and making use of new technologies. The second section addresses the challenges of maintaining transparency, equity, and fairness in public procurement. The final section discusses preferential public procurement and introduces strategies for building sustainable public procurement systems. By combining theory and analysis with evidence from the real world, this book is of equal use to academics, policy makers, and procurement professionals. 000751556 588__ $$aDesciption based on print version record. 000751556 650_0 $$aGovernment purchasing$$xLaw and legislation$$vCongresses. 000751556 650_0 $$aPublic contracts$$vCongresses. 000751556 650_0 $$aGovernment contractors$$vCongresses. 000751556 7001_ $$aThai, Khi V.,$$d1941-$$eeditor. 000751556 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aInternational Public Procurement Conference (5th : 2012 : Seattle, Wash.).$$tInternational public procurement.$$dCham ; Heidelberg ; New York ; Dordrecht ; London : Springer, [2015]$$z9783319134338$$w(OCoLC)896862542 000751556 830_0 $$aPublic administration, governance and globalization ;$$vv. 14. 000751556 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000751556 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-13434-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000751556 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:751556$$pGLOBAL_SET 000751556 980__ $$aEBOOK 000751556 980__ $$aBIB 000751556 982__ $$aEbook 000751556 983__ $$aOnline 000751556 994__ $$a92$$bISE
