Abstract
In light of the theory of ecological modernisation, this is the first work to explore the organisational barriers that have been affecting one of the most significant sustainable public procurement initiatives in Latin America: the Brazilian Environmental Agenda for Public Operations Management (called ‘A3P Programme’). After conducting a survey with program managers, the first recommendation based on the results is to group the barriers analysed into five aspects: organisational culture, motivation, economic uncertainty, market, and operations. Further recommendations are that the ‘organisational culture’ factor stands out as a particular barrier to sustainable public procurement, and that ecological modernisation theory can be useful in understanding why variables related to costs and budget are not barriers to preventing sustainable public procurement initiatives.
