Explore the parallels between public procurement processes and personal purchasing decisions in this 14-minute conference talk from NDC Oslo 2025. Discover what happens when you apply formal public project methodologies to buying a car, examining how to define requirements such as seat count, wheel specifications, and transportation goals. Learn whether purchasing an existing solution or commissioning a custom build makes more sense in different contexts. Analyze how big public projects and major personal purchases share similar decision-making processes and operational considerations. Gain insights into improving both requirement writing and evaluation processes for future projects by viewing public procurement through the lens of everyday purchasing decisions.
