Construction Federation Demands Immediate Restoration of e-GP System

Kathmandu. The Federation of Contractors' Associations of Nepal has demanded that the security problem seen in the Public Procurement Monitoring Office (PPMO) e-GP system be technically resolved immediately and brought back into operation safely and reliably.

The Federation has stated that the delay in the operation of this system, which is in operation as per Section 69 of the Public Procurement Act, 2063 and Rule 146 of the Public Procurement Regulations, 2064, has affected the public procurement process and the pace of development construction. The Federation has drawn the attention of PPMO to solve the problem immediately, stating that construction entrepreneurs are directly suffering due to the system being down.
