SUMMARY:The benefits of public buyers’ collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Public procurement is increasingly seen and used by public buyers to drive green\, resilient\, and inclusive development. However\, procurers often struggle to implement effective circular and innovative public procurement due to several challenges\, such as legal barriers\, lack of market responsiveness or preparedness to cater the buyers’ needs. In this context\, cooperation between regions and municipalities is crucial to strengthen knowledge sharing during the procurement process. Joining forces can help to amplify market reach\, achieve fair purchasing conditions and secure high-quality services and goods in line with the buyers’ needs. \nThrough examples from across Europe\, this workshop will show how and when it is most relevant to work together to find successful purchasing solutions\, and how that can be done in practice. \nThis training is the fifth and last training of the BRINC Network of Public Authorities. \nAgenda\n\nHow to carry out collaborative procurement(s) and related benefits\nMalin Håkansson (Lawyer at Sigeman & Co and BRINC Legal helpdesk)\nCollaboration in federated procurement processes: the case of CLIMABOROUGH\nFrancesco Molinari (CLIMABOROUGH)\nSuccessful cases of collaboration for procurement from the Circular PSP Project\nDina Padalkina (Circular Berlin)\n\n\nRegistration\nRegister online here.

SUMMARY:Tender Application Training - Admin & Finance Parts

SUMMARY:Follower Webinar with ICLEI
DESCRIPTION:CircularPSP has established a Follower Network with cities like Amsterdam\, Göteborg and Torino\, and city collectives like ICLEI and Energy Cities.\n______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________\n \nOn the 7th of December\, the first Follower event took place\, jointly organised by empirica and ICLEI. Several members of CircularPSP’s Follower Network were present\, but also other stakeholders in the field of circularity participated. \nICLEI presented the Circular City Declaration\, in which the declaration goals and barriers for cities to the CE transition were discussed. \nThese barriers clearly overlapped with the common challenges defined by the CircularPSP consortium\, which is based on the insights from eight procurers. In addition to these challenges\, CircularPSP discussed the envisaged city-wide CE solution\, including the main needs and requirements to overcome the barriers. Other insights shared include the standard contractual clauses for the procurement of AI by public organisations. \nFinally\, CircularPSP invited all the attendees to the open CE Taxonomy Working Group\, in which Suppliers and Cities are encouraged to tackle the following issues together:\n– Define core terminology (i.e. Taxonomy)\n– Identify a set of core data sources\n– Document a core set of data standards and protocols \nPresentation
