Consip: The value of an experience.

The process of modernisation in the Public Administration in Italy requires the increasing contribution and involvement of the main institutional stakeholders concerned in supporting a historic moment of profound change. An important role in this scenario is played by Consip, which represents - through the development of synergies between e-Procurement and e-Government - one of the strategic levers to support the evolution currently under way.
This volume aims to provide both a theoretical and practical critical analysis of what has been done so far and to examine, through various new interpretations, routes that are as yet unexplored and which may be followed in the future.
