Practical implications – The case research described in this paper proposes a detailed, achievable and valid approach to evaluating the complex issues associated with eRAs. Originality/value – The outcome of the investigation will provide valuable insights into the complexities associated with the eProcurement process.

In interactive planning projects, different stakeholders with different backgrounds, interests, negotiate a plan for an area. Communication, interpretation, and therefore the concept of context, as everything outside the actual communication that influences its meaning, become correspondingly more central to plan...
