The Court of Audit has examined the efficiency of the programme Innovatief Aanbesteden (hereafter Innovative Calls for Tender) and verified whether the projects of the Flemish governement complied with the regulations. It concluded that the selected projects did not bring forth enough innovative solutions to face important socio-economic challenges, nor did they stimulate the Flemish economy significantly. Consequently, the innovation policy of the various policy areas has barely improved. The Court of Audit identified the bottlenecks that are underlying of the poor programme results.
