Book SynopsisUsing an innovative 'law and political science' methodology, this timely book carries out a critical assessment of the reform of the EU public procurement rules. It provides a rich account of the policy directions and the spaces for national regulatory decisions in the transposition of the 2014 Public Procurement Package, as well as areas of uncertainty and indications on how to interpret the rules in order to make them operational in practice.Most EU law research focuses on the content of rules and the impact of case law on their interpretation and application. It rarely discusses how the CJEU's case law influences the creation of new rules, or the way EU law-makers enact them - issues which, conversely, are a staple for political scientists. By blending both approaches this book finds that political science provides a useful framework to describe the law making process and shows that the influence of the CJEU was significant. Though the specific case studies identify many reforms, the ultimate assessment is that EU public procurement law was deformed.Offering a clear contribution to the emerging scholarship on 'flexible' EU law-making, this book's novel methodology will appeal to scholars and students of both law and political science. Law and policy makers as well as legal practitioners will also find its practical approach compelling.Trade Review'Public procurement matters a lot in political and economic terms. This was clear during the legislative process leading to the 2014 reform. The contributions collected in this book offer a timely and clever account of the implications of the increasing politicisation of EU public procurement law whilst at the same time assessing possible developments of the CJEU case law based on both precedents and the reform. The book commends itself to different readers, those studying how EU law is made and those in the practice trying to make sense of a reform which has much deformed public procurement law as we knew it.' --Roberto Caranta, University of Turin, Italy'Reformation or Deformation of the EU Public Procurement Rules reveals an innovative and fresh approach to the functioning of the European Union public procurement framework and focuses on the need to reform the practice and application of the relevant complex and often contradicting rules. The book consists of an edited collection of essays which provide an in-depth critical assessment of the public procurement framework. The editors have produced an excellent inter-disciplinary contribution to the academic literature of public procurement which will enrich discourse, research and policy making in European integration.' --Christopher Bovis, University of Hull, UKTable of ContentsContents: PART I: INTRODUCTION AND ANALYTICAL FRAMEWORK Introduction Grith Skovgaard Ølykke and Albert Sanchez-Graells 1.

Book SynopsisImportant new policy frameworks call on governments to ensure respect for human rights by businesses and to secure a transition to sustainable consumption. Public procurement accounts for a significant share of the global economy, and nearly 30% of government expenditure across OECD countries. But what are the obligations of the state to protect human rights when it acts as a buyer? And how can procurement be used to drive respect for human rights amongst government suppliers? This engaging book reflects on these important questions, from the dual disciplinary perspectives of public procurement and human rights.Through legal analysis and practice-focused case studies, the expert contributors interrogate the role and potential of public procurement as a driver for responsible business conduct. Highlighting the character of public procurement as an interface for multiple normative regimes and competing policies, the book advances a compelling case for a shift to a new paradigm of sustainable procurement that embraces human rights as crucial to realising international policies such as those embodied in the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.Topical and thought-provoking, Public Procurement and Human Rights will be an essential read for academics and students of human rights law, public procurement law, and business and human rights, as well as practitioners in public procurement and sustainability, and government officials.Contributors include: B.S.

Book SynopsisAt a time when public administrations are increasingly subjected to transparency requirements this book provides timely analysis on the role of transparency in the context of public procurement within the EU. It provides a blend of theoretical analysis and practical insights into the operation of freedom of information requirements associated with the expenditure of public funds through purchasing, contracting out and commissioning activities. The first part of the book critically assesses a number of key issues surrounding transparency in public procurement including: corruption prevention, competition, commercial issues and access to remedies. The second part of the book features contributions from leading experts across ten European jurisdictions, providing a comparative view of transparency requirements and freedom of information rules in the context of public procurement. Overall the book provides a conceptual framework to understand the relationship between business secrets, freedom of information rules and the regulation of public procurement across Europe. This book will be of interest to scholars and students researching across public, administrative and comparative law. Practising lawyers who are involved with cross-border procurement tenders will also find this book to be a useful resource as it provides a comprehensive overview of regulatory standards at a national and European level.Trade Review'Transparency is a central plank of procurement law and policy, but is not a fishing licence for competitors. This important addition to the literature on procurement offers major contributions to our understanding of these issues in various European jurisdictions. It's a ''must have'' work for everyone interested in procurement law and practice.' --Laurence Gormley, University of Groningen, the Netherlands'An essential book in the exploration of European procurement law. It shows that beyond the rules of transparency imposed by the directives, a wide scope is left to national discretion, particularly as regards publicity after the award of the contract. Although transparency is certainly a general principle of European public procurement law, and a strategic one, its concrete implementation is therefore subject to significant variations. The book renders an important service to future reflections on European procurement law by demonstrating this reality.' --Jean-Bernard Auby, University of Sciences Po, FranceTable of ContentsContents: 1.

Book SynopsisThis book offers a clear and structured examination of how joint bidding structures comply with competition rules in Europe. It explains how joint-bids could be considered as agreements aimed at distorting competition, the practice commonly referred to as bid rigging. The book demonstrates how the conclusion of joint-bid agreements could constitute grounds for exclusion from public procurement proceedings under Article 57(4)(d) of Directive 2014/24/EU. Key features include: a detailed overview of the EU and EFTA case-law relating to consortia agreements and associated competition rules application of the single economic unit doctrine in public procurement to the question of liability for participating in bid rigging a clear explanation of how the grounds for exclusion referred to in Article 57(4)(d) of Directive 2014/24/EU apply to third parties and subcontractors guidance on the interpretation of the regulations in relation to the exclusion of a contractor from public procurement proceedings information on self-cleaning activities which contractors can engage in in order to prevent exclusion. Combating Collusion in Public Procurement will prove an invaluable resource for legal practitioners, courts and review bodies dealing with public procurement and competition cases. The information provided on the current legislation ensures contractors, contracting authorities and antitrust authorities will also benefit from this book, together with researchers interested in the field.Trade Review'This is the most comprehensive book currently available on the state of European Union law on this subject, it is a must have for the bookshelf of any lawyer dealing with competition law or public procurement law related to consortias or other kinds of cooperation among tenderers. I recommend this book without hesitation.' --Jesper Fabricius, Partner and Attorney-at-Law, Accura, Denmark'This book considers the interplay between competition rules and public procurement in European Union law in the context of joint bidding for a public contract, and the potential distortion of competition, which may result in the exclusion of bidders from public procurement proceedings. A comprehensive look at this important matter, both from an academic and a professional point of view, was undoubtedly needed. Kuzma and Hartung have succeeded in giving a precise account of how the concept of discretionary exclusion grounds should be understood and how Article 57(4)(d) of Directive 2014/24/EU should be interpreted. This well-structured book is a must-read for everyone interested in competition and public procurement law.' --Piotr Bogdanowicz, Warsaw University, PolandTable of ContentsContents: 1.

Book SynopsisThis timely book examines the ever-increasing prevalence of Central Purchasing Bodies (CPBs), analysing their use and structure across different EU Member States. It argues that since CPBs are only partially regulated at EU level, their operations will depend on the legislation of the individual Member States and more importantly on the States’ distinct practices and traditions. Comparative contributions consider the legal nature and structures of CPBs across 12 Member States and the UK. Through comprehensive comparative analysis, this book investigates competition law and SMEs, economic and management perspectives, and centralised public purchasing during the COVID-19 pandemic within the sphere of CPBs and joint procurement. Chapters explore the use of procurement techniques and electronic instruments by CPBs and the liability and remedies perspectives of CPBs and their users.Providing a complete overview of CPBs structure in different Member States and the aspects of joint procurements, Centralising Public Procurement will be of interest to students and scholars of European and commercial law. It also offers important insights for CPBs themselves, practitioners and policy-makers, as well as contracting authorities using CPBs in the different Member States.Trade Review‘An in-depth analysis of a highly topical issue in public procurement law.

Book SynopsisThis insightful book provides readers with a practical and theoretical explanation of the ways in which the new, tailor-made Innovation Partnership Procedure can be used throughout all Member States in the European Union. Pedro Cerqueira Gomes argues that innovation is a crucial policy of the EU that must be extended to public procurement.With a focus on the Procurement Directive for the public sector (Directive 2014/24/EU), the author explores the ways in which this new EU legislative framework has succeeded in transforming this legal subject into a driver of innovation. The author explains and analyses in detail the fundamental characteristics of the Innovation Partnership Procedure, while also investigating whether the EU will be capable of increasing the levels of innovation procurement in public sectors of all Member States. Issues and elements of the procedure that can be viewed as challenges of the EU harmonisation process are also considered throughout.Thought-provoking and thorough, EU Public Procurement and Innovation will be a key resource for practitioners, lawyers and consultants in all Member States looking to better understand how to use the Innovation Partnership Procedure within the EU law and legal framework.Trade Review‘A recommended read for those who are involved with public procurement, innovation and the question of how EU law influences our ability to overcome societal challenges. Pedro Cerqueira Gomes’ work adds significantly to our understanding of how EU public procurement law influences the discretionary power of public authorities that aim to procure innovative goods, services and works on the market.’ -- Willem A. Janssen, EU Law Live'This book is a must read for everyone that aspires to innovate through public procurement and for everyone that is interested to know the details and particularities of the Innovation Partnership Procedure.

As the first comparative study of material contract modifications, this book explores the interpretation of key concepts such as: unforeseen circumstances, non-equivocal clauses and the overall nature of the contract.Highlighting the discord between the transparency of the award of a public contract and the transparency of its implementation, the book interprets the execution phase of procurement contracts as the dark side of public procurement. Considering unforeseen circumstances, the change of the identity of the contractor, non-compliance and remedies, this book provides a unique insight into the challenges of interpretation and application of contract modification rules. It concludes that, whilst the flexibility to make contract amendments is required in some circumstances, the grounding principles of public procurement law must be considered and applied in these instances.This original book will be of interest to researchers who are working in public procurement, European and comparative law. It will also be valuable to lawyers, contractors and policymakers involved with public procurement contracts, contracting authorities and advising private companies.Trade Review‘The execution phase of public contracts is subject to public procurement law and principles, but it is non-transparent compared with the pre-award stages of public contracting. With its comparative study of procurement contract execution in several EU countries this book provides a highly valuable insight into this post-award area of public procurement law.’ -- Sune Troels Poulsen, Attorney at Sune Troels Poulsen Law FirmTable of ContentsContents: Foreword xi 1 Introduction: why the ‘Dark Side of procurement’? 1 Dacian C.

Now, finally, Bogdanowicz’s book gives for the first time a complete, analytical and comprehensive account of such issue, of vital importance in real life. The Author combines his skills as lawyer and academic, offering an original approach which will become a point of reference in contemporary debate.’ -- Mario Comba, University of Turin, Italy'EU public procurement law was traditionally concerned with the award phase.

This is the first full monograph dedicated to this topic in all its aspects, including remedies. It will not just set the tone for future developments, but will help all procurement professionals to navigate a very new and complex area of the law.' -- Roberto Caranta, University of Turin, Italy'Despite their consolidation in Directive 2014/24/EU; the EU rules on the modification of public contracts continue to pose a wide array of normative and practical difficulties.

Book SynopsisThis innovative book addresses the links between sustainability and human rights in the context of infrastructure projects and uncovers the human rights gap in every stage of public procurement processes to deliver on infrastructure assets or services.Bringing together contributions from leading scholars and legal practitioners, this comprehensive book addresses a gap in the literature on the role of human rights within highly complex contracts, such as public-private partnerships (PPPs), in infrastructure development. Chapters analyse key human rights issues across the life cycle of projects using case studies that investigate communities, service users and workers in public procurement supply chains as human rights holders. Further, it explores the issues facing women as different role-players – namely as workers, service users, decision-makers and government suppliers. Case studies include procurement of healthcare infrastructure and megasporting events. The editors also propose solutions and new ways forward in the advancement of the sustainable public procurement agenda, both for developed and developing countries, to deliver infrastructure that brings social return without harming human rights.Developing more inclusive approaches to infrastructure that address rightsholders and stakeholders – including communities, workers, service users, and particularly women – this book will be a thought-provoking resource for scholars and students, as well as for human rights lawyers, advocates and policy makers alike.Trade Review‘The book Sustainable Public Procurement of Infrastructure and Human Rights: Beyond Building Green, edited by Olga Martin-Ortega and Laura Treviño-Lozano is a comprehensive and well-written compilation on a very important issue that has not received significant academic attention. The book considers the importance of sustainability in infrastructure procurement from a wide range of perspectives, examining the gaps in sustainable procurement, the different modalities of infrastructure procurement, different sectors (economic infrastructure, sports and health), and the human rights risks inherent in infrastructure procurement. The book in particular, considers the involvement of the private sector and donors in the provision of infrastructure, highlighting how the private sector and donor inputs can be harnessed to improve the sustainability and mitigate human rights risks in infrastructure procurement. The book considers practical ways to mitigate human rights risks in infrastructure procurement, focusing on risk assessment, a gendered analysis and a developmental perspective. In the context of Covid-19 recovery and meeting the Sustainable development goals, the book could not be more timely, needed and welcome.’ -- Sope Williams, University of Nottingham, UKTable of ContentsContents: Foreword xii Roberto Caranta PART I LINKING HUMAN RIGHTS AND SUSTAINABILITY IN PUBLIC PROCUREMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE 1 Sustainable public procurement of infrastructure and human rights: linkages and gaps 2 Laura Treviño-Lozano and Olga Martin-Ortega 2 Access to infrastructure as a human right: making public– private partnerships work for the people 28 George Nwangwu 3 A 360-degree approach to women’s inclusion in infrastructure 60 Cristina Contreras Casado 4 Financing infrastructure procurement and workers’ rights: the role of regional development banks 86 Miriam Mbah and Ama Eyo PART II BUILDING HOSPITALS FOR PEOPLE 5 Development, infrastructure and human rights: the role of human rights impact assessments 112 Josua Loots 6 Interventions in hospital construction: early action for the realisation of human rights 140 Annabel Elise Short 7 The mismatch of public–private partnerships and the right to health 160 Johanna Hoekstra and Luis Felipe Yanes PART III FOR THE GAME: INFRASTRUCTURE FOR MEGA-SPORTING EVENTS 8 Human rights risks and opportunities in mega-sporting event procurement 195 William Rook and Daniela Heerdt 9 Human rights and developmental considerations in procuring for Africa’s first World Cup 215 Geo Quinot PART IV CONCLUSIONS 10 Beyond building green: putting people at the core of sustainable procurement of infrastructure 238 Olga Martin-Ortega and Laura Treviño-Lozano Index

Book SynopsisAs public infrastructure, health and other services are being delivered more frequently through Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and concessions, this timely book explores these complex contractual arrangements involving cooperation between public and private sectors. It considers how PPPs have become increasingly prevalent following the 2008 financial crisis and examines the applicable legal regimes that are still, to a large extent, unclear to many. Containing in-depth investigation into EU law and comparative national experiences in relation to PPPs and concessions in 7 EU Member States and the UK, the contributions in this incisive book address the weak points in the current legal regime. Chapters analyse the risks faced by contracting authorities in connection to PPPs and concessions while highlighting good practices from different countries that may be considered for wider adoption across the EU. Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions in the EU will be a key resource for scholars and students of public administrative law and businesses seeking to procure contracts to create PPPs, as well as being of value to practitioners and policy makers at both EU and national levels. Contributors include: P. Bogdanowicz, K. Bonsignore, R. Caranta, P. Cerqueira Gomes, A. Christidis, M.E. Comba, D.C. Dragos, N. Gabayet, C. Krönke, P. Patrito, C. Risvig Hamer, P. Telles, P. Valcárcel Fernández, R. VornicuTrade Review'Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions are a crucial tool for organizing public services and delivering much needed infrastructure works. However these instruments and their legal character remain a topic for discussion. This book is therefore timely. The authors discuss the origins, its characteristics and include nine chapters providing country specific in-depth analysis. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions in the European Union. Including subtile convergences and divergences this book illustrates the growing importance of comparative legal research in Europe.' --Steven Van Garsse, University of Hasselt and University of Antwerp, Belgium'This volume highlights the problematic issues in the regulation of Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions within the European Union. This well-structured collection displays historical development of relevant law, nine national chapters as well as one comparative law chapter. The authors have succeeded in giving a clear account of how the two overlapping concepts of Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions lack sufficient indication as to their distinctions and potential differences in their regulation. This is an important addition to the literature on government contracting that offers valuable contributions to public procurement law research.' --Marta Andhov, University of Copenhagen, DenmarkTable of ContentsContents: Foreword viii Table of cases xi 1 Regulation of PPP and concessions in European Union law – different but equal? 1 Piotr Bogdanowicz 2 An intellectual history of concessions and PPP law 17 Roberto Caranta and Paolo Patrito 3 Concessions and PPPs in Denmark 37 Carina Risvig Hamer 4 Public-private partnerships and concessions in France 52 Nicolas Gabayet 5 PPP and concessions in Germany 71 Christoph Krönke 6 PPPs and concessions in Italy: lots of good intentions, hindered by a highly complicated regulation 89 Katia Bonsignore and Mario E.
