Procurement is therefore at the core of the Public Finance Management (PFM) system and contributes greatly to several of its objectives, including efficiency, transparency, and accountability. In respect of public procurement, the 2005 review of Afghanistan's PFM system identified a weak legal framework, lack of ownership, lack of capacity and the lack of a monitoring mechanism as the key issues in the area of procurement. Since then, following the recommendations of the PFM review report, the country has made substantial progress in improving its public procurement environment. The purpose of this report is to provide a roadmap which sets out the incremental steps which may be taken to introduce Electronic Government Procurement (E-GP) tools according to the speed and development of the reform agenda. The report will be disseminated to the stakeholders through a workshop, planned for July 2007. The workshop will discuss the challenges in implementation of an e-GP strategy both in terms of its components as well as the transition path to implementation.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCOUNTABILITIESACCOUNTABILITYADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSESADVERTISEMENTADVERTISEMENTSADVERTISINGAPPLICATION OF INFORMATIONAUCTIONSAUTHENTICATIONBACKENDBANDWIDTHBANDWIDTH TECHNOLOGYBASICBEST PRACTICEBIDDERSBIDDINGBIDDING DOCUMENTSBROWSERBROWSERSBUSINESS ASSOCIATIONBUSINESS ASSOCIATIONSBUSINESS CONTINUITYBUSINESS DEVELOPMENTBUSINESS MANAGERBUSINESS MODELBUSINESS SECTORBUSINESS SYSTEMSBUSINESSESBUYERBUYERSCAPABILITIESCAPABILITYCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPACITY-BUILDINGCHAMBER OF COMMERCECIVIL SERVANTSCOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGYCOMPLAINTSCOMPONENTSCOMPUTERIZATIONCONFIDENCECONNECTIVITYCONTRACT AWARDCONTRACT MANAGEMENTCORRUPTCORRUPT PRACTICESCUSTOMIZATIONDELIVERY TIMESDIGITALDIGITAL CERTIFICATESDIGITAL FORMATDIGITAL SIGNATURESDIGITIZATIONE-COMMERCEE-DOCUMENTATIONE-DOCUMENTSE-GOVERNMENTE-GOVERNMENT POLICYE-LEARNINGE-MAILE-PROCUREMENTE-REVERSE AUCTIONSE-SIGNATUREE-SIGNATURESECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTELECTRONIC DOCUMENTELECTRONIC DOCUMENTSELECTRONIC FORMATELECTRONIC INFORMATIONELECTRONIC SIGNATURESELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONSEMERGENCY PROCUREMENTENTERPRISE ARCHITECTUREEXTERNAL SERVICE PROVIDERFINANCE MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFUNCTIONALITIESFUNCTIONALITYGOOD GOVERNANCEGOVERNMENT AGENCYGOVERNMENT CONTRACTSGOVERNMENT EXPENDITUREGOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONSGOVERNMENT POLICIESGOVERNMENT PROCUREMENTHARDWAREHUMAN RESOURCEHUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENTICTIMPLEMENTATION PLANIMPLEMENTATION PROCESSESIMPLEMENTATION STRATEGYINFORMATION SECURITYINFORMATION SERVICESINFORMATION SPECIALISTSINFORMATION SYSTEMINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYINITIATIVEINSTALLATIONINSTALLATIONSINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINTEGRITYINTERFACEINTERFACESINTERNAL SYSTEMSINTERNATIONAL CONSULTANTINTERNATIONAL STANDARDSINTERNATIONAL TRADEINTERNET PUBLISHINGINTEROPERABILITYINTRANETIT INFRASTRUCTURELEADERSHIPLEGAL FRAMEWORKMANAGEMENT PROTOCOLSMANAGEMENT SYSTEMMANAGEMENT SYSTEMSMATERIALMEDIAMINISTRY OF FINANCEMONITORING MECHANISMNATIONAL PUBLIC PROCUREMENT SYSTEMNEW TECHNOLOGIESNEW TECHNOLOGYNORMALIZATIONONLINE ADVERTISINGONLINE REGISTRATIONONLINE SERVICEONLINE TRAININGOPEN ACCESSOPEN STANDARDOPEN STANDARDSOUTSOURCINGPDFPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPOWER SUPPLIESPRINT VERSIONSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATIONPRIVATE SECTORSPROCUREMENTPROCUREMENT AGENTPROCUREMENT ASSISTANCEPROCUREMENT CAPACITYPROCUREMENT LAWPROCUREMENT LEGISLATIONPROCUREMENT OFFICIALSPROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITIESPROCUREMENT ORGANIZATIONPROCUREMENT PLANNINGPROCUREMENT POLICIESPROCUREMENT POLICYPROCUREMENT PROCEDURESPROCUREMENT PROCESSPROCUREMENT REGULATIONSPROCUREMENT RULESPROCUREMENT STAFFPROCUREMENT SYSTEMSPROCUREMENTSPRODUCTIVITYPROTOCOLSPUBLICPUBLIC ACCESSPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONPUBLIC FUNDSPUBLIC PROCUREMENTPUBLIC PROCUREMENT ENVIRONMENTPUBLIC PROCUREMENT LAWPUBLIC PROCUREMENT REFORMPUBLIC SECTOR PROCUREMENTQUALITY MANAGEMENTREGISTRYRELIABILITYRESOURCE PLANNINGRESULTRESULTSSEARCHSEARCH FACILITIESSECURITY MANAGEMENTSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENTSERVICE PROVIDERSERVICE PROVIDERSSITESSLASOFTWARE DEVELOPMENTSOFTWARE PACKAGESOFTWARE PROGRAMSTANDARDIZATIONSTANDARDIZATIONSSUPPLIERSSYSTEM DEVELOPMENTSYSTEM REQUIREMENTSSYSTEMS DEVELOPMENTSYSTEMS INTEGRATIONTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNICAL ISSUESTECHNICAL STANDARDSTECHNOLOGICAL CAPABILITYTELECOMMUNICATIONSTENDERSTIME PERIODSTRANSACTIONTRANSACTION PROCESSINGTRANSPARENCYTYPES OF CONTRACTSUSERUSERSWANWEBWEB SERVICESWEBSITEWEBSITESWORKFLOW MANAGEMENTWorld Bank10.1596/7932
