Welcome to my personal page!

I am a Public Procurement Prof. I hold positions at Groningen University (an Endowed Professor of Public Procurement Law (Bijzonder Hoogleraar), a Chair by the Dutch Association for Public Procurement Law)Utrecht University and at Utrecht University (an Associate Professorship in European and Dutch public procurement law at Utrecht University). I am affiliated as a researcher at the Centre for Public Procurement and the Centre for Regulation and Enforcement in Europe.

Why I do, what I do
In all of my work, I aim to better public procurement law. I hope this will improve public procurement practices, put tax payer’s money to better use, and ultimately increase the happiness of professionals in this field. I focus on sustainable and responsible insourcing and outsourcing. More about my background and research?

Bridging the gap
Link up on LinkedIn (@wajanssen), listen to our podcast or send me an email (w.a.janssen@uu.nl) to connect! I am passionate about bridging the gap between academia, practice and society as a whole. So much knowledge is lost in between the cracks.

Recent stuff & cooperation
Have a look at my most recent publications on sustainability, mandatory requirements, sustainable development, social inequality, self-organisation, green transitions, proportionality, the dividability of the state, and public cooperation (all in light of public procurement law), and much more.  Always open for cooperation: get in touch!
