Make Pre-Commercial Procurement your tool for ITS deployment

 

Objectives

  • Present the P3ITS “PCP for ITS Handbook” and the other outcomes of the project
  • Share experiences about national implementations of PCP
  • Hear about EU funding opportunities for European PCP projects
  • Network with potential partners for collaborations on PCP

 

Why?

  • The P3ITS consortium is releasing its “PCP for ITS Handbook” describing the actions you need to undertake before launching a Pre-Commercial Procurement process in the ITS sector.
  • PCP is an underutilised approach to procure innovative products or services. In this regard P3ITS has engaged in a dialogue between procurers and ITS actors to investigate how it could be used for ITS deployment.
  • The 3rd P3ITS workshop will also be an opportunity to share experiences about national PCP implementation and to hear about EU funding opportunities for European PCP projects.

 

Who?

  • The workshop is targeting primarily public authorities (innovation agencies procuring authorities consultants) but is of interest for all parties involved in public procurement of ITS innovations.
