Euromethod

Euromethod is a method for managing procurement processes of Information Services. It focuses on contract management.

Euromethod consists of three books: a reference manual, a dictionary and a collection of annexes. Euromethod's first release was in 1996.

It has evolved into the Information Services Procurement Library (ISPL), which has published a set of manuals.
