There are many ways to acquire design. Design procurement should be linked to long-term goals. What do you aim to achieve with the procurement? What challenge does the procurement address? How can the impact of the procurement be measured?
Help with procurement planning
Designers can provide training in design thinking and the use of design tools. Training helps to identify the needs of service design.
Innovative procurement requires procurement expertise. If there is no design expertise within your organization, design companies can participate in procurement planning.
On these pages, you will find information on how to choose the appropriate procurement procedure and how to make a good request for proposal.
Special characteristics of public procurement
The public sector is a significant purchaser of services. Public procurement must take into account, for example, the requirements of procurement law. Public art procurement, on the other hand, is often linked to the planning of entire residential areas.
