'A demonstration on using data to build trustable and developmental public procurement systems'
The use of data in building procurement system is an evolving and dynamic field internationally. In the Gauteng Province the process is emerging one, with the identification of three objectives for procurement reform (viz. 1. Ethical transactions 2. Supporting public procurement reform and 3. Ensuring that procurement opportunities are available to businesses in deprived areas). The current procurement systems are in consistent reform process and the GCRO advocates for a proposal based on using open-source software and focusing on business processes. The workshop will demonstrate a Minimal Viable Product (MVP) and share resources for replication in the developing world. In addition, the potential for using algorithms to monitor procurement will be discussed.
