A brief history...
Political focus on public procurement is relatively new
Main goals: freedom of goods and people
Transparancy, equality, non discrimination, proportionality
Focus: compliancy with the EU Laws
Lawfulness, lawfulness, lawfulness

Politics discover procurement (1)
Utrecht.nl
Procurement becomes a policy tool
In 2012 by national law
Small companies are hot!
Introducing ‘Gids Proportionaliteit’
Then comes climat changes and economic crisis
![Page 9: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Politics discover procurement (2)

The struggle begins (1)
Utrecht.nl
The original principles are still there
Freedom of goods and people
Transparancy, equality, non discrimination, proportionality
But the main goals has changed
![Page 11: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The struggle begins (2)
A boat over land
Utrecht has policy goals
Innovation
Social entrepreneurship
Sustainability
It’s hard to move a boat over land
Utrecht.nl
![Page 12: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sustainability in a tender
Utrecht.nl
Four ways to move the boat:
1. Selection criteria
2. Technical specifications
3. Contract award criteria
4. Competitive dialoque
![Page 13: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Selection criteria
What does EU law say?
Environmental management standards
Check by independent bodies
Only use European standards
Related to the subject of the contract
Utrecht.nl
![Page 14: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Selection criteria (2)
Utrecht.nl
So what is the problem?
We want to change the attitude of the company
Not related to the contract!
Lots of national standards
Forbidden to use them
![Page 15: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Selection criteria (3)
For example the ‘milieubarometer’
Dutch initiative
Measures the environmental performance
Creates awareness en sets business targets
Utrecht can not use it as selection method
Utrecht.nl
![Page 16: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Selection criteria (4)
Utrecht.nl
It is not based on EU standards
And is it not related to the contract
Outdated principles
But understandable in 2004
![Page 17: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Contract award criteria (1)
Utrecht.nl
Environmental aspects explicitly stated
No unrestricted freedom of choice
The criteria must be clear and precise
A big struggle for Utrecht
Because the proof is in the pudding
![Page 18: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Contract award criteria (2)
Sustainability by innovation
The business in the lead
Utrecht does not give the solution
The business is always three steps ahead
But how the compare?
Utrecht.nl
![Page 19: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Contract award criteria (3)
Utrecht.nl
Utrecht:
“the one that fits our ambitions the best will win”
But is this clear and precise?
Is this unrestricted freedom for Utrecht?
![Page 20: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Contract award criteria (4)

Business 1: only use bio cleaning solution
Business 2: the employees wil drive electric cars
vs.

Contract award criteria (6)
Utrecht.nl
Other solution: make it more specific
No innovation by the business
But it is clear and precise
![Page 23: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Contract award criteria (7)
The purchase of playsets
PEFC wood: Recycled wood:
5 points 7 points
Utrecht sets the tone
One business said: I want to use bamboo!
Utrecht.nl
![Page 24: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Technical specifications (1)
Utrecht.nl
You can ask for a specific label
Related tot the subject of the contract
The use is limited
Most labels refer to business themselves
For example FSC wood
“The organization shall comply with all applicable laws”
![Page 25: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Technical specifications (2)
There is a solution
Prescibe the underlying criteria
Mention a specific label as proof
Also accept other equivalent label
Utrecht.nl
![Page 26: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Technical specifications (3)
Utrecht.nl
Technical specifications most ‘save’
They are clear and precise
But it is only a minimal
No room for innovation
![Page 27: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The competitive dialogue
Utrecht.nl
On of the set procedures
Answer to the ‘specific and clear’ problem
The outcome of the dialoque is sustainable
Then a bidding on the outcome (lowest price)
Expensive procedure
![Page 28: City of Utrecht and sustainability - pprc.eu fileHier komt tekst The goal versus the law Hier komt ook tekst Thomas van Doorn Utrecht.nl City of Utrecht and Sustainability](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5d56043088c993ed048bd004/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Conclusions
Utrecht.nl
Utrecht uses all of the three options
Takes a legal risk on contract award criteria
The EU directive needs an update
The competitive dialogue is an (expensive) solution
