State Minister for Planning Zunaid Saki emphasized strengthening the institutional capacity of the Bangladesh Public Procurement Authority (BPPA), modernizing the electronic government procurement (e-GP) system, and updating procurement laws and regulations to make public procurement more transparent, competitive, and technology-driven. He made these remarks on Tuesday at a stakeholder consultation workshop titled “e-GP System Development, Mandatory Implementation of e-GP, and Capacity Building of BPPA,” held at the BPPA conference room in the Planning Commission premises.
The workshop was chaired by BPPA Chief Executive Officer S. M. Moin Uddin Ahmed, with IMED Secretary Sirajun Noor Chowdhury as special guest. Participants included representatives from government agencies, business organizations, academia, and the media. Presentations highlighted BPPA’s progress, challenges, and future plans for procurement reform. Discussions also covered the proposed 110-member staffing structure, which participants deemed insufficient for BPPA’s expanding regulatory and training responsibilities.
Officials underscored the need for effective integration of the e-GP platform with other government digital systems and for expanding training to enhance officials’ skills in procurement laws and procedures.
