Innova is partner<\/span><\/span><\/span> of the ENIGMA project that is organizing a training session focused on assessing cities’ needs for Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) and exchanging practices on innovative procurement methods.<\/p>\n

ENIGMA is an FP7 project that aims to implement a joint transnational pre-commercial procurement (PCP) procedure in the field of public lighting.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Coordinated by the city of Eindhoven, the project\u2019s 5 partner municipalities (Eindhoven, Malmo, Stavanger, Espoo and Bassano <\/span>del<\/span><\/span><\/span> Grappa) cooperate on procuring innovation and testing in a real <\/span>life<\/span><\/span> environment the technologies that their commercial subcontractors develop.<\/span><\/p>\n

The project offers opportunities for other public authorities to participate, exchange and learn, by creating standard procedures for transnational PCPs that can be adapted to their local contexts, by providing in situ and online training sessions on PCP, by <\/span>organising<\/span><\/span> mutual learning opportunities in the form of study visits, and by developing an online learning platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first such opportunity is a training session on PCP needs assessment that ENIGMA is running on the 27th of November 2013 in Gent. The event will feature Michael Wilkinson, an expert on pre-commercial procurement who has worked on one of the first governmental PCPs in Europe: the NHS\u2019s call for an innovative blood-donating chair.<\/p>\n

Moreover, participating local authorities will be encouraged to exchange experience and will be involved in hands-on exercises on identifying needs and testing for project viability when running PCPs.<\/p>\n

In order to register for this event, please send an email to denisa.naidin@eurocities.eu. A draft agenda is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
