The Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) has directed all accounting officers of federal agencies and parastatals to ensure online registration of procurement officers is completed by Sept. 8.

The BPP Director-General, Dr Adebowale Adedokun, said this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

Adedokun said the move followed a presidential directive reverting the mobility of procurement officers to the Bureau, as conveyed through the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation in May.

He said the Bureau was creating a Procurement Management System (POMS) to harmonise records of procurement officers in all federal procuring entities and update their data for effective management.

The BPP boss directed all procurement officers covered under the Public Procurement Act 2007 (as amended) to fill out an online Google form with their details.

“The Google form can be accessed via https://bit.ly/proc-data with the required details.

“Also, the Accounting Officers of procuring entities shall ensure that the Directors of Human Resources fill out the attached form which shall be duly endorsed.

“All the forms must be completed and submitted to the Bureau on or before the close of work on Monday, Sept. 8.

“Strict compliance with this directive is strongly advised, as failure may lead to sanctions in line with Public Service Rules and other relevant federal government policies and extant rules.

Adedokun enjoined the chief executive officers, directors general, and their equivalents in the procuring entities to notify the concerned officers of the directive contained in the circular. (NAN)
