  1. Innovation Procurementand H2020 support Lieve BosInnovation Unit (F2)DG CNECTEuropean Commission

  2. Innovation Procurement potential still underutilised • Public procurement is 'the tool' that enables potential buyers to steer industry R&I to its needs. However, it is under-used in EU. • US EU • PCP: 50 $Bn 10 €Bnof R&D public procurement/year • PPI: 15% 5% of e-gov solutions procured are 'innovative' • Also large differences within Europe • Study published here: https://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/news/quantifying-amount-public-procurement-ict-and-rd-across-europe Frontrunner Member States invest 5 times higher % of total public procurement budget than followers on ICT and R&D proc: ICT procurement 13,5% in UK <-> 3,43% in LV R&D procurement 0,5% in UK <-> 0,17% in LV €Mio (2011) Public Procurement of ICT Public Procurement of R&D

  3. Progress PCP implementation Framework identified and/or pilots in preparation Working on framework Awareness Raising Exploring possibilities Pilots started 2007 Denmark Malta Ireland Sweden Latvia Lithuania Estonia Spain Poland Norway Romania Slovenia Bulgaria Cyprus Greece Netherlands France Slovakia Finland Germany Iceland Luxembourg Italy Austria Belgium Czech Republic Portugal UK Switzerland Hungary Framework identified and/or pilots in preparation Awareness Raising Exploring possibilities Working on framework PCPs projects on-going or finished 2016 Malta Sweden Finland Estonia Lithuania Slovenia Romania Ireland Latvia Poland Netherlands Luxembourg Czech Republic Bulgaria Spain Greece Cyprus UK Norway Belgium Italy Denmark Slovakia Iceland Portugal Hungary France Germany Austria Switzerland Strategic importance: EU funded PCP projects are pioneers that trigger national PCP initiatives

  4. Innovation Procurement = PCP + PPI Complementarity Innovation Procurement: • Procurement of R&D services to tackle specific public needs when solutions are not yet on the market (PCP) • Procurement of solutions new to the market where the public sector acts as first customer (PPI)

  5. Policy framework pushing forward innovation procurement • 2006: Aho report recommended EC actions driving demand for innovations through public procurement • 2007: Lead Markets Initiative and PCP communication • 2008-today: Council conclusions and EP resolutions asking EC and Member States to support PCP and PPI • 2010: Digital Agenda, Innovation Union and Regional EU2020 flagships calling also on Member States to do more PCP & PPI • 2014: Horizon 2020 and ESIF reinforcing EC support for PCP/PPI. Revision of public procurement directives and State aid rules H2020 support increased from 4,5€M in 2009-10 -> 43 €M in 2011-12 -> 94 €M in 2013 -> 130 €M in 2014-15 -> 130 €M in 2016-17 • 2015: ERAC recommendations on innovation procurement to MS and EC (measurement framework and targets for innovation procurement, etc)

  6. What can countries/regions do? • Political encouragement • Modernising public sector 'a priority' • Quality-efficiency improvement targets • e.g. Lombardia/IT, UK, Flanders/BE • Target % proc budgets to innovation • Monitoring framework • e.g. UK, NL, ES, Nordics, FR Implementation - Innov Proc Competence center Training / assisting procurers (e.g. SE, FI, ES, Flanders/BE, DE) - Innov Proc financial support program (e.g. SE, FI, EE, ES, NRW/DE) • Encourage demand side to meet supply side • Early notification innovproc needs • Open market consultations • Meet the buyers events • Leverage EU funding • Horizon 2020 Increased • (syn) ESIF support for • EIB loans innovproc

  7. Evidence from successful examples • Shortening of time-to-market • Attracting venture capital • Creating lead markets • Retaining lead market position • Cheaper products and higher product quality • Removal of supplier lock-in • Benefits on local economy

  8. FindingsstudyQuantifying the impact of PCP in Europe https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/news/quantifying-impact-pcp-europe-study-smart2014-0009 • Improvements in the quality and/or efficiency of the public services achieved by deploying the innovative solutions developed as a result of the PCP; • Increase in quality and decrease in prices of products resulting from the highly competitive multi-sourcing, phased procurement approach that distinguishes PCP from other procurement approaches; • Reduction in the risk of failure in large scale follow-up PPI procurements • Increase in the efficiency of R&D expenditures; • Speeding up time-to-market for firms and facilitating the access of SMEs to the procurement market; • Attracting financial investors to Europe; • Increased interoperability / impact on standardization / reduction of supplier lock-in; • Impacts on competition structure in the market; • Increased exploitation of IPRs and R&D results in general.

  9. The risk of NOT doing PCP-PPI is bigger than the risk of doing it • Public sector often pay too much to get non optimal quality product • Long term contracting, vendor lock-in, fragmented procurement market -> PCP-PPI reduces costs of 'first' deployment with 20% with more cost savings when deploying more widely (US data). This repays small PCP investment multiple times. • More than 50% of public procurements don't achieve their goals • Procurers not informed enough about pros & cons different solutions – buying wrong thing, vendor lock-in with proprietary solutions & cost overrun everywhere etc -> PCP/PPI de-risks large deployments to prevent failure/ waste of tax payers' money • Not even 25% of public R&I grants result in commercialisation • Because not driven by customer to steer R&D to meet concrete customer needs -> Increase the effectiveness of public investments in R&I: 50 to 75% commercialisation success rate for companies in PCP-PPI procurements • Innovative companies leave Europe – EU competitiveness undermined • Public sector is more willing to be first test and deployment reference (45Bn more PCP, 200Bn more PPI per year in US) -> PCP/PPI can attract innovative suppliers to EU & create growth/jobs 'in Europe' (PCP falls outside WTO rules: can require R&D to be done in Europe, first deployment of tested PCP product can be from PCP suppliers)

  10. Why European cooperation on PCP-PPI? • Speed up public sector modernisation– improve quality and efficiency of public services with breakthrough solutions • Get better value for money through cooperation - enable public sector around Europe to share cost + experience to buy new solutions that can respond to concrete public needs • Address issues of common interest together – e.g. where interoperability and coherence of solutions across borders, pooling of resources or market defragmentation is required • Create growth and jobs in Europe – help innovators bring European R&D to the market (the majority of R&D in H2020 funded PCPs should take place in Europe, ltd set of first test products can be bought in the PPI from companies in the PCP)

  11. First results FP7 funded PCPs • 12 FP7 funded PCPs have awarded contracts by now • SILVER (Robotics for elderly care) • CHARM (Traffic management) • PRACE 3IP(Energy efficient supercomputing) • SMART@FIRE(Smart protective equipment for fire fighters) • PREFORMA (Long term digital preservation) • DECIPHER (Mobile health services) • Human Brain Project (High Performance Computing for brain simulation) • V-CON (Virtual construction of road infrastructure) • Cloud for Europe (Cloud computing for governments) • Thalea (Telemedicine for intensive care unit patients at increased risk) • IMAILE (Personalised e-learning solutions) • NYMPHA-MD (Mental care for bipolar disorders) HBP PCP doesn't result from a PCP call. HBP decided itself to use PCP under its subcontracting activities. • Contracts awarded • Tender docs downloaded typically between 50 to 300 times • Nr of offers received typically between 10-34 (4-7 for specialised/low budget PCPs) • 77 contracts awarded in total (130 companies/universities involved)

  12. Data collected so far • Opening route-to-market for new players/SMEs • 73% of contracts won by SMEs (SME lead bidder, bidding alone or with partners) • Compared to 29% in public procurements across Europe Mostly small young SMEs: 27% below 10 people, 60% below 50 people, 49,5% less than 10 years old • Joint procurement stimulates cross-border company growth • 29% of contracts won by bidders that are not from a country of any of the procurersin the buyers group (e.g. DE company working for UK+NL procurers) • Compared to 1,26% in public procurements across Europe (also in national PCPs) • Relevance to universities & bringing scientific results to market • 31% of winning contracts have university/R&D center partner in consortium - Winning SMEs are also often university start-ups • Encouraging commercialisation – budget efficiency • Bidders offered ~ 50% price reduction on R&D cost (market beyond procurers) -> PCPs can get twice as much R&D done for same budget as R&I action • Creating growth and jobs in Europe • 98,7% of bidders do 100% of R&D in Europe (2 have committed to do minimum 68% resp. 85% of R&D in Europe)

The focus of the THALEA PPI is on getting a highly interoperable telemedicine-platform (a telemedicine cockpit) deployed for detection of ICU-patients at increased risk. Thalea PPI project starts in June 2016

  23. Example transnational PPI – DG CONNECT Elderly Care Project Timing: April 2014 (36 months) Value PPI procurement: € 17,2M Contact: Ad van Berlo, Smart Homes (a.vberlo@smart-homes.nl) Project website: stopandgoproject.eu • STOP AND GO is led by 6 procurers: Regional Health Agency Campania (IT), Health agency province • Catanzaro (IT), Health agency Rome (IT), Eastern Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group (UK), Health • procurement agency/Junta de Andalucia (ES), Gemeente Helmond (NL) • The STOP AND GO procurers plan to undertake together a €17,2M public procurement of innovative • solutions to trigger the market to deliver ICT based telecare services that enable to care for frail elderly • that suffer from multiple conditions at the same time such as heart failure, diabetes, etc. • Additional health sector organisations that also participate in the project help to develop PPI tender • specifications suitable for European wide deployment of the solutions. • Open Market Consultation on joint tender specs took place mid 2015. • Procurement started end 2015.

  24. Examples EU funded network of procurers eHealth domain Project Timing: October 2014 (18 months) Contact: bob.jones@cern.ch Project website: www.picse.eu PICSE is a coordinating and networking project with partners: CERN (CH), Cloud Security Alliance EMEA (UK), Trust-IT services (UK) PICSE address the challenge of building a Trusted Cloud for the Science community. PICSE aims to identify opportunities and develop a roadmap for shared cross-border procurement to enable new ways of procuring cloud-based services, focussing initially on the procurement needs of public research organisations and libraries. PICSE aims to create a unique procurers platform to provide information and share best practices supporting the move from outright purchase ICT hardware to 'pay-per-usage' made possible by commercial cloud computing.

  25. Examples EU funded network of procurers eHealth domain SAEPP Project Timing: January 2015 (8 months) Website: www.smartambulanceproject.eu SAEPP is a coordinating and networking project with partners: NHS Commercial Solutions (UK), Ambulance Today (UK), University Medical Center Groningen - UMCG (NL), Falck (DK), Region Zealand (DK), INEM (PT), South Karelia Central Hospital (FI), BITECIC (UK), South East Coast Ambulance Service (UK), Yorkshire Ambulance Service (UK), Royal College of Art (UK), University of Sheffield (UK), University of West England (UK), Fibico (ES), TECNALIA (ES), Saimaa university of applied sciences (FI), Lappeenranta university of technology (FI) The SAEPP network of ambulance procurers and users is preparing the ground for a PCP to develop an ICT- equipped ambulance of the future that enables a shift from a vehicles that services as a means of urgent transport to an on-board mobile treatment space. The objective of the ambulance redesign is to enable pre- hospital care in order to avoid unnecessary hospital admissions and the associated patient distress and hospital costs.

  26. Examples EU funded network of procurers eHealth domain Project Timing: January 2015 (24 months) Project website: www.innovationithospitals.com EPP eHealth is a coordinating and networking project with partners: Bravosolution (ES), Region Zealand (DK), Servicio Andaluz de Salud – SAS (ES), Servicio Madrileno de Salud - SERMAS (ES), University Hospital Krakow (PL), dane-ianalizy (PL), Optimat (UK) The EPP eHealth consortium aims to transform the market for eHealth solutions through dialogue and innovation procurement. The project will make progress towards this aim by creating a network of procuring organisations that understand the opportunities that eHealth can offer. The project will create a critical mass of procurers that will proactively develop forward looking procurement plans to create a coherent demand for eHealth solutions.

  27. Lessons learnt on-going EU projects • Importance concrete procurement need • Surveys: what companies need = customer requirements. No use to do PCP/PPI for the fun of funding innovation. • Importance preparatory work • Still R&D needed? Need to compare competing solution approaches. No test proof yet whether any can meet procurement need. (PCP) • Already solutions near or on the market. No R&D but perhaps still close-to-market adaptation/integration/scaling up needed. (PPI) • Importance of open market consultation • Importance of defining IPR conditions up front in call for tender • Importance of wide promotion of call for tender • Learn from others – no need to reinvent the wheel

  28. Changes compared to FP7/CIP • New 2014 public procurement directives: legal basis for PCP strengthened, legal basis for joint cross-border procurement • joint cross-border procurements for PCP and PPI exist now (reuse templates!) • 2014 revision State aid rules for R&D&I: confirmation that PCP is not considered State aid if implemented correctly • H2020: PCP/PPI instrument addresses key issues of pilot projects • More flexible implementation of payment of suppliers • VAT eligible cost: better leveraging out VAT differences across EU countries • Sole participants also become possible • Model PCP/PPI tender documents • Synergies between H2020 and new structural funds (ESIF) • Especially for PPIs also: Large scale testing 'optional' in H2020

  29. H2020 support to Innovation Procurementin 2016-2017PCP/PPI Actions + Coordination and Support Actions (CSAs)

  30. Forms of support • Coordination and Support Actions (100% funding rate): • Support only coordination activities e.g. preparation of a PCP or PPI by a group of procurers (identifying common challenges, open market consultation with industry before initiating a concrete PCP or PPI etc) • CSAs do not provide EU co-financing for an actual PCP or PPI procurement • PCP Actions (90% funding rate): • Provide EU co-financing for an actual PCP procurement (one joint PCP procurement per action) + for related coordination and networking activities (e.g. to prepare, manage and follow-up the PCP call for tender) • PPI Actions (35% funding rate): • Provide EU co-financing for an actual PPI procurement (one joint PPI procurement per action) + for related coordination and networking activities (e.g. to prepare, manage and follow-up the PPI call for tender) ! New from WP2016 onwards !

  31. PCP and PPI actions – participation requirement In addition, other entities can also participate - In buyers group: also private/NGO procurers providing services of public interest - In coordination/networking activities: any private/public type of entity (e.g. experts, end-users, certification bodies that assist procurers) that has no conflict of interest (no potential suppliers of solutions for the PCP/PPI) Public procurers are contracting authorities or contracting entities as defined by the EU public procurement directives MS = Member States AC = Countries Associated to Horizon 2020

  32. PCP and PPI actions - Role different actors • Buyers group • Beneficiaries that provide the financial commitments for the PCP or PPI. • Min 2 public procurers from 2 different Member States or associated countries • Shall represent the demand side for the innovations, a critical mass of procurers that can trigger wide implementation of the innovations, shall aim for ambitious quality/efficiency improvements in area of public interest. • Lead procurer • Public procurer in project appointed by the buyers group to lead and coordinate the PCP or PPI. Can be part of buyers group or not. • Subcontractors • Successful tenderers, selected by the buyers group & lead procurer as result of the PCP or PPI call for tender, to provide the R&D services (PCP) or innovative solutions (PPI). • They do 'NOT' enter the grant agreement with the EC.

  33. PCP and PPI actions – Proposal preparation In the proposal, the consortium shall already identify • A concrete 'common challenge' on which the PCP/PPI will focus (e.g. new solution needed to improve energy efficiency of data centres) • KPIs (targeted quality/efficiency improvements) for the PCP/PPI (e.g. target is energy efficiency improvement of min 30%) • Illustrating how this challenge fits in the innovation strategy / plans of the participating procurers that require innovative solutions (e.g. city procurer a/b/x aims to upgrade x/y/z data centres by 2018) • Requested budget per participant and plan for preparing and executing the procurement + for the coordination and networking activities Attractive success rates for proposers

  34. PCP and PPI actions - Eligible activities • Preparation stage • Preparation of one joint PCP or PPI procurement per action • Open market consultation /verification of market readiness to meet procurement need • Outcome • Agreed common tender specifications + Joint procurement agreement • Confirmation of availability of financial commitments to start PCP/PPI • Execution stage • Joint procurement of the R&D services (PCP) or innovative solutions (PPI) • Follow-up of suppliers and validation of results • PCP: Validation/comparison of the performance of the competing PCP solutions against jointly defined criteria in real-life operational conditions • PPI: Evaluation of results of deploying and operating the procured solutions in real-life operating conditions • Dissemination/exploitation of results Other coordination/networking activities relevant to the action (e.g. preparation of follow-up PPI, contribution to standardisation / regulation / certification)

  35. PCP and PPI actions – EU contribution • Reimbursement rate direct costs: Max 90% respectively 35% of eligible costs for PCP respectively PPI actions • Eligible direct costs to carry out eligible activities defined in WP include: • Price of the R&D services (PCP) or innovative solutions (PPI) procured (if procurement conducted in compliance with requirements in Annex E WP) • Eligible coordination and networking activities • May include in-kind contributions (e.g. third parties putting resources at disposal of beneficiaries e.g. for testing of solutions) • VAT is an eligible cost unless for beneficiaries that can deduct it • Requested reimbursement for coordination and networking activities can comprise max 30% (for PCP) /max 50% (for PPI) of total requested grant • Plus 25% for indirect costs. But, no indirect costs on the price of the PCP/PPI procurement or on 3rd party resources not used at the beneficiary premises • Pre-financing:Yes, 1st pre-financing at start project for costs for preparation stage, 2nd pre-financing before execution stage for rest of costs (incl. call for tender)
