Procurement with a Purpose
This study examines how the salience of social movements influences public procurement decisions and how agency mission shapes these responses. Findings show heightened social movement salience correlates with greater spending on minority-owned businesses, particularly among agencies without explicit equity-oriented missions. The results underscore the moderating role of organizational missions in shaping responsiveness to external pressures. Thi…
Does Home Rule Still Matter? Perceptions and Legal Constraints in Green Public Procurement
This article examines the relevance of Home Rule provisions in contemporary local governance, emphasizing their reliance on both the legal environment and innovations of local managers. In a novel analysis of data from 204 US local governments, we explore the relationship between Home Rule provisions, perceptions, and their impact on green public procurement (GPP). Our findings suggest that, as a legal standard, Home Rule has limited influence on…
Understanding the Impact of Collaborative Governance on Sustainability
This paper analyzes collaboration patterns in procurement and outcomes as well as the impact of collaboration on green public procurement (GPP) implementation. It draws data from case studies in local governments in Florida and examines the literature on collaborative governance and resource exchange theory. The findings highlight collaboration patterns and note that collaboration may lead to economies of scale, more agile procurement, and enhanc…
The Nexus between Gender Diversity and Research Performance
Although the nexus between performance and gender diversity has been widely researched in different contexts, we know little about the role gender diversity in co-authoring procurement research plays on research productivity. Using diversity performance literature as a theoretical backdrop and drawing on data from articles published in three procurement journals, the study runs negative binomial regressions. This study has implications for academ…
Social equity in federal contracting during emergencies
While the U.S. federal government strives to advance social equity in government contracting through various policies to support small disadvantaged business enterprises (SDBEs), entry barriers persist. Drawing on federal government spending data from the initial response to the COVID‐19 pandemic, this study estimates logistic and multinomial logistic regressions using portfolio management theory to understand what factors can favor SDBE particip…
Buying green in U.S. local government
This study investigates how green purchasing in local governments varies as a function of the organization's internal commitment, operationalized by the stage of institutionalization of green public procurement (GPP), and external pressures from various stakeholder groups. GPP, a value‐based innovation justified on the grounds of intergenerational equity, is an important tool governments can use to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. …
Bottom-up innovation adoption of green public procurement in the United States
Climate change and its outcomes are complex issues facing communities worldwide. Among policy options to address such issues, existing scholarship focuses mainly on regulatory policies. An innovative market-based policy option is green public procurement (GPP), which may induce private companies to voluntarily switch to more environmentally friendly products. The study examines the adoption and diffusion of GPP practices among local governments u…
How can procurement create (sustainable) public value under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal
The economic response of the US government to the COVID‐19 pandemic envisions massive investment in infrastructure construction. Yet, governments contract out public works and might lack the capacity to meet the increased demand for new construction. Drawing on a mix of survey and interview data, we identify critical deficiencies in contract capacity that might lead to a loss of public resources and further erode trust in the government. We propo…
