Procurement for reform – Jordan

Government’s tendering and procurement process will be reformed, Minister of Finance Winston Jordan announced during his Budget 2015 speech on Monday.

He told the National Assembly that the current process of government tendering and procurement has fostered an environment of unfairness and inequality, among other ills. “The present broken system needs to be fixed quickly. As an immediate step, Government has changed the composition of the tender board,” he said.

The minister disclosed that government has also moved to establish the long-awaited Procurement Commission,
