“…Subsequently, a project proposal addressing this problem, unmet need or opportunity is written and approved by the management of the public organisation to ensure commitment to the project. By guaranteeing commitment to the project, the uncertainty over future demand decreases, giving potential suppliers a greater incentive to invest in the development of new products and services (DBIS 2011;van Meerveld, Nauta, and Whyles 2015).…”

Public sector procurement is increasingly seen as an important instrument for inducing innovation in the private sector. Yet, a broad range of different concepts, each with their own associated rationales, and approaches, are used in literature and practice to describe the stimulation of innovation through public procurement. Due to a lack of an overview on the use of concepts, rationales and approaches to stimulate innovation through public procurement in literature and practice, it remains difficult for public organisations to decide why, how, and to what extent they will stimulate innovation in the private sector through public procurement. The contributions of this article to mitigate this problem are threefold. First, it provides a review of the different streams of literature, dichotomies and typologies on public procurement with respect to inducing innovation. Second, it discusses various approaches to stimulate innovation through public procurement individually and compares them in a structured overview. Finally, it provides guidance on the suitability of the use of these approaches in different situations.

“…The use of demand from the public sector to trigger private sector innovation is becoming increasingly important and relevant to innovation policy and as a means to support SME innovations (Geroski, 1990;Aho et al, 2006;Edler and Georghiou, 2007;Uyarra et al, 2014). It has also been acknowledged that suppliers' inter-organizational networks may be necessary to facilitate innovations in the context of public procurement (van Meerveld et al 2015). This paper investigates how these interorganizational networks and the public sector customer's demand for innovations are associated with SMEs' innovative performance.…”
