IDB funding US$1M training project to modernise local procurement system

Local public procurement officials are expected to benefit from critical training under a US$1 million Inter-American Development Bank (IDB)-funded project intended to modernize the country’s procurement system.

The IDB recently published a request for expression of interest seeking a consulting firm to provide a public procurement training programme that will certify government officials in three levels of public procurement expertise in an online format.  The US$1 million loan falls under: Support to Fiscal Policy and Management in Guyana.

Although it is a loan, IDB will be executing the project.
