At Hometown Development Initiative (HDI), we consider procurement as an ‘industry’. Procurement is not just big business. It is the real business that affects all of our lives!
Preparations must meet opportunities!
In a nutshell, public procurement entails outsourcing competent service providers to deliver on existing or potential needs. It usually begins with a user department (MDA) having a specific need, let’s say a construction or maintenance need, and ends with the procurement unit identifying the most competent service provider to provide those needs.
Preparing yourself for those opportunities is what makes you an outstanding service provider. We exist to guide and help you with such preparations. Though the processes and level of transparency might vary between private and public players, the model and processes are usually the same.
A company is as good as its documents!
There are hundreds of public opportunities!
