The digital transformation of public procurement promises a host of benefits. It can make transactions more efficient and effective, support innovative approaches, enable more precise measurement of outcomes, and improve transparency. The shift towards digital systems can also foster greater participation from small and medium-sized enterprises and promote competition. At the same time, the digital transformation of public procurement should connect and build on existing systems and initiatives and contribute to broader policies such as the digital government and digital transition agendas. This report maps the current state of digital public procurement in Ireland, identifying areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. It presents stakeholders’ perspectives on related challenges and opportunities, with a view to informing a future strategy for the digital transformation of public procurement. The report also defines key concepts and terminology on the digital transformation of public procurement and includes an overview of European experiences and orientations in terms of similar or related strategies, standards, emerging technologies, and lessons from other European Union and OECD Member countries.
