The Bureau of Public Procurement has succeeded in ensuring the creation of a synergy between various Ministries, Departments, Agencies and other Government Parastatals by establishing a working environment where there is proper knowledge of how business processes should be conducted and an environment that allows for free flow of information through substantial improvement in the communication methods.
Uniquely, The Bureau has ultimately ensured time effectiveness by ensuring that the process of registration of contractors/suppliers/service providers that work with various MDAs, receiving, vetting and approval of proposed projects and project costs from various MDAs is free from unnecessary administrative bottlenecks by treating them as they are received without accumulating documents, a great upgrade from what has been.
Through the Moderation of estimates/projects from the MDAS in terms of project cost of procurement/projects, and through ensuring compliance with the law as well as with the Bureau’s guidelines on the projects/requests, contracts/procurements, consultancy services, direct labour projects, direct purchase and disposal of public property from the MDAS and by setting up procedures and methods of ensuring that the procurement for which certificate of no objection was issued was actually done, the Bureau has been able to reduce corruption and largely minimize the diversion of Government fund, a noteworthy change that has bettered Oyo State.
With the efficiency, fairness, reliability transparency, accountability and ethical standards in the activities of the Bureau of Public Procurement, there have been records of extensive and unprecedented savings made on behalf of the Government of Oyo State.
