The Journal of Public Procurement covers all aspects of public procurement at a local, regional, national and international level. Multi-disciplinary, the journal examines public procurement from the perspectives of management, law, economics and politics.
Aims and scope
The Journal of Public Procurement positions itself as the leading academic journal providing high quality research with impact in the area of public procurement (PP). We particularly encourage research that embraces an interdisciplinary approach that more closely recognises the interconnection between public procurement and the private sector activities of sourcing and supply. Thereby being salient and pertinent to practitioners, institutions, policy development/shaping as well as contributing to the academic knowledge in this field. Furthermore, we are open to exploration of “arm’s length public bodies” that are indirectly or directly connected with mainstream public sector regulation and authority/administration.

The Journal of Public Procurement (JOPP) is multi-disciplinary and employs a broad approach towards methods and styles of research. Public procurement refers to examining the sourcing and purchase of goods, services and works by public organisations, being national or local governments
