On 9 September 2026 the European Commission adopted a new Public Procurement Act designed to make purchasing strategic rather than merely cost-efficient. The regulation introduces provisions for resilience and security of supply and establishes a horizontal European preference framework allowing preferences for bids meeting thresholds of European content, covering roughly 15% of EU GDP that flows through public procurement. The move follows the Commission's proposed Cloud and AI Development Act, which requires authorities buying cloud and AI systems to weigh each bidder's contribution to a European cloud and AI ecosystem.
