Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Board

The role of PPADB is to adjudicate and award tenders for Central Government. PPADB is also responsible for contractor registration and discipline, issuing of standardised bidding documents, vetting of tender documents prior to issue, capacity building, compliance monitoring and providing overall advice on public procurement and assest disposal in order to improve efficiency. The Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Board came into force to address the following concerns: Rapid expansion in the volume of procurement Increase in the range and complexity of procurement Shift in procurement budget away from the simple supplies based contracts to technically sophisticated works and service contracts Donor funded projects had created conflicting bidding practices, and complex contract documentation and specific standards all of which contributed to excessively complicated procurement procedures. Lack of effective citizen involvement in Public Procurement and to promote greater transparency, public accountability and efficiency in the management of the public procurement system.
