Summary: | The assessment focused on the degree of
readiness of Government of Nepal's (GoN's) current
public procurement environment for making a transition from
a traditional paper-based, manual procurement transaction
processing and communication to electronic government
procurement (e-GP). Some 20 public and private sector
organizations, involved in a wide range of functions that
relate to public procurement, provided comment on the degree
of readiness of nine key components related to e-GP:
leadership, human resource planning, procurement planning
and management, procurement policy, legislation and
regulation, Internet and electronic infrastructure,
standards, private sector integration, and current e-GP
systems and initiatives. The assessment found: adequate
evidence that an e-Tendering system is in place but is
little used; some evidence that procurement legislation and
procurement planning is in place and being supported, and
that some procurement training has been conducted; and
limited evidence that leadership, human resource planning,
procurement management, regulation, and Internet
infrastructure services are in place and being supported.
The Roadmap sets out the features for a comprehensive e-GP
service including e-Tendering, e-Purchasing, e-Reverse
Auctioning, and a Procurement Information and Management System. |
