Josep M. Marco-Simó , Joan A. Pastor , Rafael Macau

pp. 443-460

In this paper we present the current state-of-the-art situation of research in public administration procurement of functions and services related to information systems and information technologies. From this review, we propose a list of open research issues according to our beliefs and practical experience. Finally we introduce a real case that we are starting to address, in which we want to consider both prior results as well as research issues. We believe that the topic of IS/IT procurement in public administration is an open area that has not received enough attention from the research community, according to the great amount of public money that is being invested.
