1. Demand driven innovation through public procurement PCP and PPI in Horizon 2020 Lieve Bos European Commission DG CONNECT (Communication Networks) F2 unit (“Innovation”)

2.  Health care  Climate Change  Energy Efficiency  Transport  Security  Public sector efficiency… Rationale Public sector is faced with important challenges. Addressing these, often requires public sector transformations for which no commercially stable solutions exist yet. In many cases, solutions are near the market and would be provided if clear requirements/sufficient demand expressed by the market (PPI) In other cases, still R&D required to de-risk technology, still different competing solution approaches to compare before committing to deploy (PCP) Public procurement is 'the tool' that enables the buyers to steer industrial R&I to its needs. However, public procurement driving R&I from demand side is underutilised in EU.

Supplier B Supplier C Supplier D Phase 1 Solution design Phase 2 Prototype development Phase 3 Original development of limited volume of first test products / services Supplier A Supplier B Supplier C Supplier D Supplier B Phase 0 Curiosity Driven Research Applied R&D / Pre-commercial Procurement (PCP) Phase 4 Deployment of commercial end-products Diffusion of newly developed products / services Supplier D Public Procurement of Innovative Solutions (PPI) PCP to steer the development of solutions towards concrete public sector needs, whilst comparing/validating alternative solution approaches from various vendors PPI to act as launching customer / early adopter / first buyer of innovative commercial end-solutions newly arriving on the market Supplier(s) A,B,C,D and/or X Also normally multiple sourcing here to keep competition going How does it work PCP: specific approach to procure R&D services, enabling –Price/quality products that better fit public sector needs –Earlier customer feedback for companies developing solutions –Better take-up/Wider commercialisation of R&D results

4. PCP Win-win for all stakeholders - New lead markets - Increase export - Quality of public services - Focus on political priorities - Improve innovation climate - Attract foreign investment - Increase employment - Reduce cost of procurement Procurers Pre-commercial Procurement -Shared risks & benefits -First buyer in early R&D - Global competitiveness Politicians Suppliers Get the ‘Best Product’… … at the ‘Lowest Price’ - Address ‘public market innovation failure’ - Shape product development to public needs - Increase technology knowledge - Reduce risk in commercial tendering - Favour supplier competition - Pooling of resources - Economies of scale - No licensing costs - ‘First time right’ product - ‘EU interoperable’ - Attractive to venture capitalists - Reduce unforeseen expenditure - Better products - Economies of scale - Wider market size - Shorter Time to market - Reduce risk of innovation

No commitment to deploy (PPI) yet. What –Public sector buys R&D to steer development of solutions to its needs, gather info about pros / cons of alternative solutions to be better informed to make specs for a follow-up PPI possibly later, to avoid supplier lock-in (create competitive supply base) How –Public sector buys R&D from several suppliers in parallel (comparing alternative solution approaches), in form of competition evaluating progress after critical milestones (design, prototyping, test phase), risks & benefits of R&D (e.g. IPRs) shared with suppliers to maximise incentives for wide commercialisation
