The objective of the report was to design a Best Practice Guide for contracting authorities to encourage procurers to structure their procurement procedures in a manner that facilitates increased participation by small and medium size enterprises. The Best Practice Guide is based on the findings and research unearthed by the “Are Tenders on Your Radar” project. The partly EU-funded project Are Tenders on Your Radar? aims to improve business access and more particularly innovative business access to public procurement by bridging the gap between business and public buyers in both the UK and Ireland through a series of targeted learning and networking workshops.
