Guyana<\/p>\n

As part of its efforts to improve procurement practices and promote accountability nationwide, the Public Procurement Com-mission (PPC) has been conducting training sessions in the various regions.<\/p>\n

In a release on Tuesday, the PPC informed that its latest session was held on June 14, at the Bartica Learning and Resource Centre in Region Seven. It said that the session drew a diverse group of 30 participants from various sectors, including members of the Regional Executive Office, Regional Tender Board, evaluators, engineers, and members of the Bartica Town Council.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also in attendance were procurement staff, personnel from multiple regional and municipal departments such as accounts, procurement, planning, and health, as well as representatives from the Guyana Defence Force and the Guyana Police Force.<\/p>\n

The training session covered a wide range of topics relevant to the commission\u2019s operations and the procurement process. These included the PPC\u2019s role and responsibilities (mission, vision, core values and function); the legislative framework, administrative review and debarment process; the public procurement process; threshold and tender openings; and the evaluation process.<\/p>\n

Following training sessions in regions Two,Three, Four, Five, Six, and Ten, the commission said that it received a favourable response from Region Seven. The positive feedback from Region Seven, it posited, emphasised the significant value and impact of these sessions, reinforcing the PPC\u2019s dedication to improving procurement practices throughout all regions. \u201cThis initiative is crucial in ensuring standardised, transparent, and efficient procurement processes across the country, thereby fostering greater accountability and better resource management.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The PPC stated its intention to extend similar training programmes to regions One, Eight, and Nine, in the upcoming weeks, which will complete coverage across all ten administrative regions. And by equipping stakeholders with the requisite knowledge and skills, the PPC aims \u201cto cultivate a transparent, efficient, and accountable procurement ecosystem conducive to sustainable development in Guyana.\u201d<\/p>\n

The release pointed out that Section 19(1) of the Procurement Act, Cap. 73:05, provides for the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board to create within each administrative region, a Regional Tender Board which is subject to the provisions of the Act. Therefore, it is imperative that the Regional Tender Boards are acquainted with and have a working knowledge of the procurement processes mandated by the Act.<\/p>\n
