Under ASARECA/WORLD BANK procurement guidelines, is there a body that protects/supervises the procurement processes?
WB recognizes the national procurement systems such as the Public Property and Disposal Authority (PPDA). However, the role of procurement management has been assigned to ASARECA because it has systems in place i.e. finance and audit functions that will manage the procurement systems. In addition, an arbitration system is in place and it is included in the contract. For instance, in Uganda arbitration is handled in the commercial court and in Kenya, it is handled in the industrial court. If national systems fail to resolve the issue, then the UN system is used as provided for in the World Bank procurement guidelines.
