Public Management Review

Abstract

This paper introduces a special issue focused on strategic public procurement from a public management perspective. It articulates the goals, key dimensions, and challenges inherent in strategic public procurement while contextualizing the articles featured in this issue. To advance the field and strengthen the integration of public procurement and public management literature, we propose adopting the Public Service Logic (PSL) framework. PSL provides a comprehensive approach to reframe public procurement, shifting it from a focus on legal compliance and cost-efficiency to achieving broader strategic policy objectives, including fostering innovation, environmental sustainability, security, and social inclusion.
