  1. Voucher scheme to support the procurementof innovation in public organizations

  2. MOTIVATION Current innovation procurement support instruments might not fit all needs of public procurers. Specially when the dimension of the project is not big and time-to-innovation has to be short. We would like to propose a complementary instrument for those projects that are smaller in size so it is easier, faster and cheaper to incorporate innovation into Public organizations.

  3. Objectives Make an initial proposal of a new instrument. Improve it by interacting with stakeholders and experts. If deemed of enough interest, support the piloting under real-world conditions.

  4. Set up a support-scheme where pairs of a Public organization and an innovative company (eg. an ICT SME) can be competitively awarded a voucher to jointly develop, test and validate an innovation. To be eligible, the application has to include a valid signed commitment stating that if a number of indicators are met, the Public organization will launch an open public procurement process. Therefore, the procurement will be open to others. The ideaInnovation Procurement Voucher (IPV)

  5. As a competitive scheme, all proposals will be evaluated by independent experts that will mark the proposal against valid criteria. Only the best ones above a threshold will be awarded. Outputs of the projects will be also reviewed. Follow-up on the procurement will take place. A tentative name of the scheme could be Innovation Procurement Voucher (IPV) The ideaInnovation Procurement Voucher (IPV)

  6. Positioning Solution maturity PPI IPV PCP Size of project

  7. Is this scheme feasible under European and National laws? • What could the “signed commitment” look like? • What should happen if the commitment is not finally fulfilled? • What should the eligible costs be and what activities could be covered? • What improvements could be added? • Who is interested in following up the discussion? Selection of open questions

  8. Promote an interest group with the EC, stakeholders and experts to exchange views. Next touchdown: eafip workshop in Manchester Nextsteps
