Procurement monitoring is a relativelynew field for civic engagement. This paper is a collectionof eight selected cases studies which aim to provideexamples of practices that have emerged globally in recentyears. The objective is not to offer 'blueprints'or ready-made solutions to the challenge of civicmonitoring, but rather to highlight some of the broadercomplexities underpinning the successful development of newapproaches. The cases studies are designed to explore howdifferent mechanisms of civic engagement are forged withinspecific social and political contexts, and, moreimportantly, how the nature of such engagement changes overtime. In particular, the studies focus on understanding thedriving forces behind the process as it evolved the impactof the intervention, and the potential for replication atgreater scale. While each case study can be viewed as a'standalone' example, it is also important toemphasize the value of the collection in terms of developingthe discussion of common principles of civic engagement in procurement.
