INTRODUCTION
| Essentially, e-Procurement/ e-Tendering is conducting on the internet the equivalent of the manual tendering process, with the ostensible objective of enhancing Transparency and Efficiency of Public Procurement. While this naturally involves some re-engineering, it is important to ensure that under the pretext of re-engineering and technology, there should be no compromise on the security/ confidentiality, transparency and legal aspects of the well-established public-procurement process. The focus of the paper/ presentation will be on some such critical issues, or red flags, with suggestions for remedial measures. |
