  • On the Separation of Award and Contract in Public Procurement

    Dieter Bos, Martin KolmarARTICLEFinanzArchiv2003

    In public procurement, a temporal separation of award and actual contracting can frequently be observed. In this paper, we give an explanation for this institutional setting. For imperfect procurement contracts such a separation may increase efficiency. Efficiency can be increased by postaward, pre-contract negotiations between the award-winning firm and one of the losing firms. Surprisingly, the efficiency gains can be higher if the award is giv…

  • Bureaucrats and Public Procurement

    Dieter BosARTICLEFinanzArchiv2002

    This paper deals with a Niskanen type of public-procurement agency. We show that the procurement game should be separated into an investment game and a project game, the first game to be played before nature determines the actual realizations of benefit and costs of the project, the second game to be played afterward. In the first game the relationship-specific investments of agency and seller are determined, in the second game the decision on th…

  • On the Quality of Publicly Supplied Goods

    Dieter Bos, Bernd Genser et al.ARTICLEEconomica1982

    We have all worried at some time about the low quality of, and also quality hypertrophies in, public supply. This paper draws attention to a particular second-best solution of this problem: given the political and technological constraints that restrict the ability of public enterprises to quality-differentiate, which kind of standardized quality is the best? Section I answers some basic questions: why is the case of standardized quality of publi…
