“WOULD YOU TELL ME, PLEASE, WHICH WAY I OUGHT TO GO FROM HERE”
“THAT DEPENDS A GOOD DEAL ON WHERE YOU WANT TO GET TO”
(Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland - Lewis Carroll)
The Faculty of Law of the University of Copenhagen and the Faculty of
Economics of the University of Rome Tor Vergata announce the launch of the
1 st Interdisciplinary Symposium on Public Procurement.
Its aim is to, through dialogue and discourse, bring together economists and
lawyers in the field of public procurement, in search of reducing their language
barriers and cultural diversities, aiming at reaching a joint wider understanding
of specific issues, also to fulfill the ambitious task of suggesting reform for
better rules of acquisition for Public Administrations.
According to the challenge of the event, i.e. its <strong>interdisciplinary</strong> spirit, we have
identified for this first edition four driving themes initiated by short colloquia
between an economist and a lawyer:
1. Competitive dialogue and contractual design fostering innovation
and need analysis;
2. Separation of selection and award criteria, including exclusion
of reputation indicators like references to experience, performance
and CV’s from award criteria;
3. Retendering a contract for breach of procurement rules or changes
to contract;
4. Set-asides for small and medium firms, as in the USA system with
the Small Business Act that reserves shares of tenders to SMEs only.
We hope you enjoy this event and support its evolution in the future
