Need for a clearer definition of innovation in the context of public procurement. Currently, the interpretation of "innovation" in public procurement varies significantly across EU Member States, which hampers the comparability of innovative procurement indicators and practices. In some countries, only entirely new or substantially improved products, services, or processes are considered innovative.

Their record over time
Public Procurement Office filed 2 positions between 7 Feb 2025 and 12 Nov 2025, across 2 of the 665 legislative files tracked here.
What they argued
EU procurement directives require social requirements in procurement to be linked to the subject of the contract. This is seen as a shortcoming that prevents the assessment of suppliers' use of some aspects of social policy that are longer term or have a greater impact.
