The OECD Principles for Integrity in Public Procurement are a unique policy instrument to help countries prevent risks of waste, fraud and corruption throughout the entire procurement cycle, from needs assessment to contract management and payment. The DP action plan on open governance also calls G8 members, partner countries, and international organisations to provide technical assistance related to adopting best practices. Objectives of the first meeting of the Network In line with the conclusions of the DP meeting in April, the government of Italy, in cooperation with the OECD, has taken a lead in launching the MENA-OECD Network on Public Procurement”. The first meeting will support a dialogue amongst procurement practitioners to: 1. Share good practices and lessons learned in building transparent and efficient public procurement building on international good practice; 2. Identify needs for support in this area based on an assessment of procurement systems, first in transition countries against the OECD Principles. It would be broadened to other MENA countries; 3. Develop a road map for the Network, including its functioning, objectives and next steps. Participants The meeting will bring together a network of senior public officials and practitioners on public procurement from DP countries and beyond, including Middle East and North Africa, OECD countries as well as representatives from international organisations, including Multilateral Development Banks as well as bilateral donors. 14.30-16.00 Session 1: Promoting transparency in procurement to ensure a level playing field Transparency promotes a level playing field for businesses by attracting a higher number of potential suppliers. This contributes to better prices and possibly savings when governments buy goods, services and public works. Therefore countries recognise the need to provide: Transparent and readily accessible information on general laws, regulations, judicial decisions, administrative rulings, procedures and policies on public procurement; and Equal opportunities for participation of bidders through a competitive procedure, and the provision of consistent information to all bidders on the procurement opportunity. However transparency in procurement procedures has a cost for the administration and may sometimes results in less efficiency, when this results in long and burdensome procedures for purchasing goods and services. 4 During this session, countries will discuss lessons learned and good practices in implementing policies and measures that promote transparency while ensuring overall efficiency in public procurement. Co-Chairs of the session: H.E. Mr. Abderrahman Ladgham, Minister Delegate for Transparency and Fighting Corruption, Tunisia Mr. Carlos Conde, Head of Programme, Middle East and North Africa Governance Programme, OECD Presentation by each participant Keynote speaker: Mr. Domenico Casalino, CEO of CONSIP, Italy Discussion Questions for discussions: Which policy measures, tools and programmes have been successful in promoting transparency and accountability in public procurement? What were the conditions identified for their success? 16.00-16.30 Coffee break 16.30-18.00 Session 2: Professionalising the procurement workforce Public procurement has shifted from simply being an administrative function of buying services, goods and conducting public works for the public sector to a strategic function which supports: a) The effective and efficient management of public funds in the delivery of key public services such as health; b) Other policy objectives by promoting a conducive environment for SMEs participation, innovation and environmental protection. From this perspective, it is essential that public procurement is recognised as a dedicated profession which requires specific competencies, training and tools. During this session, participants will share their experiences in professionalising the procurement workforce. Chair of the session: Mr. Moncef Hamdi, Director General, Higher Commission for Procurement, Tunisia Speaker: Mr. Ahmed Benbarka, Tasyeer Training Center, Libya Questions and answers Speaker: Mr. Peter Reimer, Lawyer, Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, Netherlands Discussion Questions for discussions: Which policy measures, tools and programmes have been successful in professionalising the procurement workforce? When reflecting other considerations in procurement (such as SMEs participation, innovation, environmental protection), how can this be done in a transparent and non-discriminatory way? 20.30: Official Dinner 5 Thursday 20 September 2012 9.15-10.45 Session 3: Involving stakeholders: focus on SME’s To strengthen the legitimacy of reforms and ensure their effective implementation, governments should develop mechanisms to involve all stakeholders, in particular the private sector. Small and Medium Enterprises are a critical partner for governments as they are a key lever of innovation and job creation. SMEs face barriers that provide them with a competitive disadvantage to participate in tenders. Therefore governments are increasingly taking steps not only to facilitate access to public procurement but also to stimulate the innovation and growth potential of SMEs. Furthermore the private sector should be actively involved

March > July 2014 International Master in Public Procurement Management University of Rome Tor Vergata and EBRD - European Bank for Reconstruction and Development Dear Student, it is with pride and enthusiasm that we want to share with you the launch of the second edition of the International Master in Public Procurement Management, born out of the willingness and commitment of both the Procurement Department of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and of the Tor Vergata University in Rome. After 8 years of successfully managing the interdisciplinary Italian Master in Procurement Management, which has brought Tor Vergata into the national limelight for procurement studies, we have found in EBRD the right institutional partner to make the dream of exporting our professional and training capacity abroad come true. As we always believed that public procurement issues are common worldwide but need specifi c solutions for each context, we have tailored a program meant to confront dilemmas and challenges that may happen on the day-to-day purchasing activity and in the procurement planning process, with a hands- on approach based on case-studies and the right blend of theory and practice. Also thanks to the critical support of the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Central European Initiative and the prestigious cooperation with the Italian Procurement Central Purchasing Body, Consip, we believe we will successfully achieve the main goal of the Master: to e ectively train public o cials operating in the fi eld of procurement and young students eager to apply for a public position in the fi eld.

  • Summary Record Launching of the MENA-OECD Network on Public
    Summary Record Launching of the MENA-OECD Network on Public Procurement 19-20 September, SSPA, Caserta, Italy Main highlights: The Network meeting brought together for the first time senior public officials and practitioners on public procurement from Deauville Partnership countries, from OECD countries as well as representatives from international organisations. Network members agreed on the objectives and directions for future work on procurement: i) Sharing good practices and lessons learned among procurement officials. Issues of common interest across DP countries include in particular: access of SMEs to public procurement, e-procurement, prevention of corruption, recourse mechanisms and the involvement of civil society in procurement. ii) Advising countries in the implementation of the OECD Principles on Enhancing Integrity in Public Procurement. To assess compliance with the OECD Principles possible methodological tools include: - bilateral peer learning between two countries in the region as well as - a formal peer review process involving experts from other MENA and OECD countries (upon the request of individual members). iii) Identifying needs for support and technical assistance, in particular for DP transition countries. The involvement of organisations such as African Development Bank, International Labour Organisation and International Development Law Organisation will help fulfil these needs (e.g. through on-site and on-line trainings). Opening ceremony for the MENA-OECD Governance Programme Training Centre of Caserta 1. As foreseen in the Deauville Partnership (DP) Open Governance and Anti-corruption Action Plan, the MENA-OECD Network on Public Procurement was launched on 19 and 20 September at the MENA- OECD Governance Programme Training Centre in Caserta, Italy. The Training Centre is a joint effort between OECD and the Italian National School of Public Administration (SSPA, Scuola Superiore della Pubblica Amministrazione).

    UNITED NATIONS E Distr. ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL LIMITED E/ESCWA/ECRI/2012/WG.1/Report COUNCIL 27 December 2012 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) REPORT EXPERT GROUP MEETING ON GOOD GOVERNANCE AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE INSTITUTION-BASED STATE CAIRO, 8-10 SEPTEMBER 2012 Summary The Expert Group Meeting on Good Governance and the Establishment of the Institution-Based State was held in Cairo, 8-10 September 2012, and was organized by the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), the United Nations Development Programme, the Arab Administrative Development Organization of the League of Arab States, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Transparency International and the World Bank. The development of good governance practices at the State level has proven to be a very demanding endeavour in the Arab region. Good governance is not a free standing phenomenon, but one that lives in an endogenous relationship with participation, transparency, responsiveness, inclusiveness and accountability. It is crucial to introduce good governance practices as a means to facilitate the development and reform of the public sector. To ensure the establishment of a transparent, cohesive and efficient public sector, several different areas need to be developed and strengthened. Administrative procedures and processes must be simplified, the delivery of basic services during times of transition and political instability must be strengthened and the involvement of civil society in the public sector needs further development. Participants made a number of recommendations pertinent to ESCWA member countries that are currently witnessing a drive for reform and transition towards a more democratic form of governance.
