The agreements have significant potential to improve procedural efficiency in public procurement, but are complex to operate. Inadequate preparation and implementation can also frustrate their potential both to tackle waste, abuse and corruption and to enhance value for money. In this enlightening book, Gian Luigi Albano and Caroline Nicholas look at the key decisions required for designing and using framework agreements and address both legal and economic issues to give the reader a clear understanding of the planning, variables and flexibility needed for efficient implementation. This book will be of interest to policy makers, lawyers and public procurement practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of the legal and economic issues surrounding framework agreements. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Public contracts.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85108628 650 0 Government purchasing|xLaw and legislation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056100 650 7 Public contracts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1082170 650 7 Government purchasing|xLaw and legislation.|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/945560 650 7 LAW|xConstitutional.|2bisacsh 650 7 LAW|xPublic.|2bisacsh 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Nicholas, Caroline,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2015062321|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9781107077966|z1107077966|w(DLC) 2015041409|w(OCoLC)926106093 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1216161|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
