Pre-commercial procurement (PCP) is an approach within the public procurement of innovation, developed specifically for the procurement of R&D services rather than actual goods and services. Public procurement of innovation occurs when public authorities act as a launch customer for innovative goods or services. Arvo is one of the founding members of the Procurement Transformation Institute (PTI), which is Ireland’s Centre of Excellence to promote Pre-commercial procurement (PCP) and Public procurement of innovation (PPI) in Ireland. The PTI Competency Centre will provide an open space dedicated to the science and art of procurement impact, for current and future professionals in any organisation.
