Many governments in the world use online public procurement systems for the acquisition of a wide range of goods and services including the purchase of rights (e.g. software licences) and digital goods and services.
In the Americas, all researched countries have adopted e-procurement systems. The acquisition of cloud services is allowed in all the e-procurement system analysed. Besides, each country has set some eligibility requirements depending on the type of process (national or international), the services to be procured (i.e. security requirements for Cloud services) or the size of the acquisition (technical and financial capacity to deliver the goods or services).
This new benchmark has been published in the scope of our Americas Digital Economy service.
