A Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) is an approach for contracting authorities to acquire research and development services (and under certain conditions related to R&D results), with the purpose of steering the development of new innovations towards public sector needs, without committing to engage in follow-up Public Procurement of the Innovative solutions (PPI) emerging from the PCP.
