BPP forwards procurement violators’ names to Code of Conduct Bureau

BPP Director-General Adebowale Adedokun made this announcement and promised to overhaul the organization. Adedokun declared, “Business as usual will no longer apply.”

He pointed out that this is the first time the CCB has ever received a list of violators in the agency’s existence. “Sending the report is our responsibility,” Adedokun stated.

“I have a lot of requests on my desk right now, and I will report non-compliance,” Adedokun stated. “As soon as the president signs the budget, they should start the procurement process.

As stated by Business day, he encouraged Nigerians to anticipate major changes in the procurement process and noted that the BPP is auditing all MDAs. “We will have addressed more than 70% of the corruption in the country when the process is right,” he stated.

“For the first time, we are providing the CCB, which is responsible for prosecution, with reports on public servants directly involved in procurement violations,” Adedokun stated.

Inclusivity and local economic growth take center stage in procurement

Additionally, the 2007 Public Procurement Act is being amended by the BPP. Adedokun revealed that in order to resolve the amendment, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has formed an interagency committee. 

“The president is committed to these reforms to establish the NCPP, and we have identified anomalies in the 2007 Act,” he stated.

Adedokun emphasized the value of open, competitive bidding in bringing down project costs.

“We’ll make sure Nigeria receives good value for its money. To give fair pricing ranges and shorten the project implementation period, a price intelligence team has been established. 

Additionally, Adedokun promised that the organization would put diversity first by giving women, young people, and people with disabilities the chance to participate in public contracts.

He revealed ideas for sector-specific strategies catered to different businesses. 

“By supporting local companies and MSMEs, we hope to boost economic growth and create jobs,” he stated.

Every month, all MDAs will have to report on the contracts they have given to the BPP. In order to enhance service delivery and engagement, the agency will set up zonal and state. he added. 

“We will update benchmarks, identify best practices in contract negotiation and supplier selection, and offer training programs to enhance procurement professionals’ comprehension of benchmarking,” he stated.

Adedokun promised that the agency’s changes will increase public trust and promote responsibility across all public procurement organizations.
