Discover the latest developments in Japan's public procurement in target sectors: JTPP Helpdesk Thematic Reports.
Replacing its Weekly Tender Digest, the Japan Tax & Public Procurement (JTPP) Helpdesk is this year offering Thematic Reports on Japan's procurement activities in a number of industrial ecosystems.
The reports look closer at recent procurement trends, related policies, regulations and certifications and include a selection of tender opportunities for European SMEs. The ecosystems covered this year include circular economy, digital economy, the agri-food sector, aerospace, transportation & mobility and research and development. Thematic reports on circular economy and digital economy are already available online.
The Report on government procurement and circular economy provides an insight into Japan's green procurement and green contracting legal frameworks and how this works out in practice.
The Report on digital economy deals with the challenges of Digital Transformation (DX), the role of Japan's new Digital Agency and government procurement of IT systems. Also, it highlights recent IT-contracts offered by Japanese public entities and what kind of qualifications and certifications are required.
JTPP Helpdesk also organises webinars related to each of the reports to offer businesses with interest in the sectors the opportunity to learn more about government procurement activities related to each of the industrial ecosystems.
The full versions of the thematic reports are available for free to EU Headquartered companies and non-profit organisations and can be obtained via JTPP Helpdesk's Ask-the-Expert Service.
