There’s a new challenge open on the EIC Challenge platform: CircularPSP, an EU-funded Horizon Europe project focused on Public Procurement of Innovation, aims to enable and empower municipal operations and the local economy via a digital platform to make use of existing information and knowledge of Circular Economy by integrating them into well-designed workflows and knowledge nuggets.
PCP (Procurement for R&D services) for Circular Economy
The EU Horizon Europe project CircularPSP invites suppliers for a Pre-commercial Procurement (procurement of Research and Development services) for Public Service Platforms for Circular, Innovative and Resilient Municipalities.
7 procurers + 1 associated partner from 8 countries, representing 55 million citizens (DE, FI, TR, SE, IE, PT, SI, UK) including capitals with global influence (Berlin, Helsinki, London, Istanbul) are to invest in R&D for a total sum of €5.64 million (see PIN on TED).
The project is looking for a digital platform enabling and empowering entire municipal operations (city) and the local economy (market) to make use of existing information and knowledge of the Circular Economy by integrating them into well-designed workflows and knowledge nuggets. Suppliers will develop and make use of taxonomies, AI and NLP.
Contracts are awarded in three competitive phases. The platforms will be tested by all procurers with the ambition to make the solution known across Europe.
The tender is expected to be made public in November 2023.
