Abstract
The European Union (EU) procurement Directives play a key role in the development and implementation of any large infrastructure project. While the directives have developed over the last two decades or more, we suggest that their potential to enhance the effectiveness of project delivery is not yet fully realised. Through an analysis of projects across the EU, we identify three mutually dependent recommendations for the European Commission, namely: 1) to improve the training of both procurement and project management professionals in the selection and implementation of the procurement procedures; 2) to recognise procurement as playing a significant role in the overall design of the project organisation and its resulting long term capability; and 3) to strengthen the efforts to facilitate a more dynamic form of knowledge creation through the development of national and pan European communities of infrastructure organisations.
