Do innovations and external collaboration influence public procurement contracts' success? evidence from catching-up Visegrad Group economies

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In recent times, the attention given to innovations and informal competitions and their ability to stimulate demand-side policies such as public procurement contracts have mounted among policymakers and researchers. However, fewer studies have focused on analysing these relationships, especially in catching-up countries. This paper, therefore, aims to investigate whether innovations and, its related activities, and informal competitions play important roles in influencing firms&apos; decisions to secure public procurement contracts. We employed the logistic and treatment effect regression models using pooled cross-sectional data from the 2019 World Bank Enterprise Survey to test these relationships. The results, based on a cross-sectional sample of 2,606 firms, revealed that product innovation and informal competitions positively influence firms&apos; abilities or willingness to secure public procurement contracts. On the contrary, we find that process innovation does not influence firms&apos; ability to obtain public procurement contracts. The results also demonstrate that patents and external collaboration significantly influence firms&apos; abilities to successfully secure public procurement contracts. The main practical implication of the research is that firm managers in catching-up economies such as the Visegrad Group aiming to be successful in the tendering process should consider engaging in innovation and collaborative bidding to stand a better chance of securing these competitive government contracts.
