The Korea Institute of Procurement (KIP), a specialized research institute of public procurement committed to leading the future evolution, conducts professional studies on policy, system, and development strategy.
Since the KIP was founded in 2005, it has been performing a key role as a think tank of public procurement by suggesting policy alternatives and improvement proposals on pending issues of procurement in government and public sector.
Recently, not only many developed countries such as the United States, the EU, Japan encourage the use of public procurement to overcome economic contraction and unemployment, but also Korea recognizes the role of public procurement ever more critical in the wake of growing public interest and demand for welfare.
In this regard, the KIP proposes effective strategies leading to creative economy and maximum benefit of government expenditure. Furthermore, we help SMEs promote technical development and strengthen their competitiveness by providing necessary consulting services on technology and quality certifications, cost management, etc.
The KIP will deliver its services that the public and the stakeholders need and continue to offer and share knowledge and information on public procurement policies.
Thank you for your support and encouragement
President Korea Institute of Procurement
