This indicator assesses whether public procurement bodies coordinate to exchange knowledge and experience on GRPP. For coordination to be considered relevant, researchers were required to provide evidence on the regularity of coordination and on specific mechanisms formalising the coordination. The data does not consider informal measures that exist at the national level, which could limit the accuracy of response.
The findings presented for Member States are based on a combination of desk research, and interviews with public procurement authorities (except in Czech Republic and Luxembourg where no interviews were possible). The data collected for Austria, Lithuania, Portugal, and Romania also incorporates information from an interview with a gender equality body.
