Public Procurement - Policy vs.Praxis: An Implementation Gap? - an analysis of environmental consideration in Canadian procurement processes
(2005)Department of Service Studies
- Abstract
- Public procurement is used as a policy tool in governments throughout the world. In later years environmental policy objectives have been raised as a possible goal of public procurement. This has, however, come to prove problematic for many governments and this paper attempts to find out if there is an implementation gap between environmental consideration in the procurement process at policy level and environmental consideration in the procurement process at practice level. It further tries to identify reasons for the existence of such a gap.
