How is registration in e-Procurement portal different from legacy registration process already followed by few of Government of Karnataka departments?
Registration in e-Procurement portal is done to address the following objectives: To verify if the person seeking registration is actually whom he says he is (i.e. confirming that Mr. X actually is Mr. X and not registered using someone elses name) A company registered in e-Procurement platform is a valid entity A person seeking registration in e-Procurement platform has the required authorization to participate in Government of Karnataka tenders The portal registration is not done to verify the ability of contractors to perform a certain type of work or deliver a certain good or service.
