“…Sustainability has become an important driver in many industries, including the construction industry (Rodriguez-Melo and Mansouri, 2011). One of the ways this can be seen in construction is the development and use of certifications schemes such as Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen and building research establishment environmental assessment method that provide a framework to tackle sustainability challenges within the domains of economic, social and environmental sustainability (Haugbølle et al , 2013; Jensen et al , 2018).

Purpose Efficient and effective knowledge transfer is important in complex building renovation projects. The addition of sustainability requirements in building renovation adds complexity. This paper aims to investigate the development of innovative public procurement schemes to support sustainable building renovation projects. These blueprints for procurement innovation can support similar efforts in other countries. Design/methodology/approach This study is based on a longitudinal case study using interviews with primary stakeholders and workshops with industry practitioners to supplement the analysis of public tender documents from the Danish public building clients. Findings The key tenants of the Danish model for strategic partnerships are a single strategic partner, systematic conflict resolution, framework agreements, risk management and joint educational programs. Three phases in the development of the procurement scheme are identified: experiment, definition and replication. Originality/value Strategic partnerships and other types of relational contract schemes are not very prevalent in most countries. How these contracts are developed and defined is not well understood. This paper shows how one such contracting scheme is developed, how it is defined and replicated.
