How do service companies want to improve public procurement?
date
Location
Public procurement accounts for more than one-sixth of Sweden's GDP and is of great social importance. Well-executed procurements provide the conditions for service companies to contribute to supporting and developing public services, to the benefit of citizens.
However, previous surveys by Almega show that many service companies experience challenges in participating in public procurement. General challenges include strong price pressure at the expense of quality, irrelevant requirements and insufficient follow-up. Through a new report based on in-depth interviews with representatives of individual member companies, we now want to concretize the companies' experiences and also their views on what characterizes well-executed procurement.
The report will be discussed at a seminar organized by Almaga on Thursday 21 April at 12.00 - 13.00, arrival registration with light lunch from 11.30.
