ABSTRACT
This paper commences with a brief review of the work of CIB Working Commission 92 to date which will pick out past themes and major developments and will culminate in a discussion of likely future directions for the working commission, in particular, and procurement systems research in general. The theme of the W92 symposium in Montreal, Innovation, will be addressed and the emerging issues in procurement systems analysed and discussed within this context. The aim of the discussion and analysis will be to try to answer the question “where is procurement systems research going to?”
