“…The OECD has played a crucial role in rule‐setting on public procurement from an early period. Starting from the 1960s, the OECD sought to complement non‐discriminatory access to procurement markets with the introduction of rules to achieve procedural conformity between its members, not least the US and the (then) European Economic Communities (Trepte , p. 1127). Rules agreed at the OECD level, with the US playing a key role, have had a direct impact on allowing the EU to develop its own legislative framework on procurement, as will be discussed further.…”

This paper attempts to go beyond actor‐centered explanations of the European Union's (EU) presence in regulatory politics by examining the role of the EU in the diffusion of regulatory norms and practices. We explore the international diffusion of public procurement policy, to which multiple organizations and especially the EU and the World Trade Organization have made an active contribution. Using the “opportunity‐presence‐capability” scheme, we argue that the EU is actively co‐shaping the global agenda on public procurement, mainly as a result of the “opportunity” and “presence” dimensions of its global actorness and its role in the horizontal diffusion of public procurement regulations between international organizations. For “EU as a global actor” literature to offer valuable explanations, an in‐depth analysis of its relationship with other international organizations, such as the World Trade Organization, reveals significant interactions and the co‐shaping of policy agendas.
