The Technical & Vocational Training Authority (Tevta) has continued its strides towards digital transformation and the launch of online Procurement Management System (PMS) is a testimony to this commitment, said Chairperson Ali Salman Siddique.
He was speaking at the inauguration of online Procurement Management System (PMS) here at a ceremony.
Ali Salman said that switchover of PMS to a digital platform is a significant leap towards Tevta’s digital transformation initiative that aims at ensuring transparency & efficiency.
It would help in showing door to the old cumbersome, laborious, time taking and inefficient paper work laden manual procedures and practices. The PMS comprising e-Dashboard, Live Procurement Process Tracking, Single Click Reporting and e-Document Management would contribute substantially towards improved time saving, streamlining procedures and facilitating effective monitoring of all ongoing procurements, he said.
Ali pointed out that the transition towards digitalization would help achieving the objective of inducing transparency and efficiency in the systems by making all steps, stages and processes pertaining to in-hand procurements readily available for inspection, supervision & appraisal over the e-dashboard. This will also contribute towards effective supervision of such processes by all concerned ensuring that all procurement procedures were effective and translucent, he said
The Tevta chairperson lauded the efforts of GM Procurement and his team for converting the system to a digital platform and said that this would not only help streamline the procurement procedure but would also lend credibility and efficiency to the processes.
Earlier, GM Procurement Amir Aziz said that the PMS linked all TEVTA institutions across the province to the central purchase cell. Praising his team for making digitalization a reality, he said that old inefficient practices were fast getting out of tune with the changing environment while the new digital system was efficient, transparent and time-saving modern management tool being adopted around the world because of its advantages and benefits. TEVTA COO Akhtar Abbas Bharwana, the GMs & DGMs and procurement section personnel also attended the ceremony amongst others concerned.
