By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat is facilitating a 3-day workshop in Saint Lucia on the development and implementation of strategies to improve the efficiency and transparency of public procurement.

The training is supported under the 11th European Development Fund (EDF) Strengthening Framework for CARICOM Integration and Cooperation Process (SFCICP).

Participants will be exposed to e-procurement solutions during the session from 26 to 28 June 2023.

Participants in the training on the Community Public Procurement Notice Board (CPPNB) are expected to be from both the public and private sectors.

“The CPPNB is an integrated Notice Board with 13 National Advertising Portals (NAPs) which CARICOM Member States should use to publish procurement opportunities and contract awards notices in keeping with commitments under the Community Public Procurement Protocol. To date, Barbados and Belize are the two Member States that have made use of their National Advertising Portal to publish procurement opportunities,” a statement from CARICOM noted.

The training will be facilitated by Titus Preville, Director, CARICOM Single Market and Trade; Philip McCLauren, Senior Technical Coordinator, CSME; and Derek Browne, Information Technology Specialist.
