Architects fear that the current tender culture will harm the quality of our built environment due to a potential lack of diversity, creativity and innovation in architectural design.

This PhD research addresses the origin of the problems as currently experienced by public commissioning clients in architect selection and proposes pragmatic imp 606 $aGovernment purchasing$xLaw and legislation$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aArchitects$xSelection and appointment$zNetherlands 606 $aDecision making$xPsychological aspects 615 0$aGovernment purchasing$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aArchitects$xSelection and appointment 615 0$aDecision making$xPsychological aspects. 676 $a721 700 $aVolker$b Leentje$f1978-$01571035 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792037003321 996 $aDeciding about design quality$93845107 997 $aUNINA
