Public Procurement


Chemonics supports governments in enhancing public procurement processes to achieve a higher degree of efficiency and transparency, ensuring a fair allocation of public resources and fostering trust within the public sector. Our work strengthens procurement management systems, optimizes compliance and auditing, and ensures public procurement follows ethical standards while integrating digital innovation.

Procurement Management Systems

Procurement Management Systems

We develop advanced procurement management systems that enable governments to streamline procurement workflows, promote regulatory compliance, and enhance transparency.

These advanced systems are tailored to partner needs and integrate digital innovations that help governments manage procurement processes, enhancing operational efficiency and transparency.

Compliance and Audit Tools

We promote the adoption of tools that ensure public procurement activities are compliant with relevant laws and regulations, while also enabling robust auditing mechanisms to uphold accountability.

We work with governments to tailor such tools, following international standards and integrating digital innovations to maximize efficiency and transparency.

Training and Capacity-Building

We strengthen government capacity to optimize public procurement processes through comprehensive training and institutional support.

This includes training public procurement officials on best practices, ethical standards, and effective procurement strategies. We tailor training programs to local needs, and deliver them through workshops, mentoring, and embedded advisory support. We also develop process and procedure maps to reinforce the practical application of skills. These efforts not only improve technical competencies but also foster a culture of integrity and accountability within procurement institutions.

Public Awareness Campaigns

We supports governments in their efforts to communicate on public procurement with potential vendors and the population at large.

We assist in the adoption and roll out of initiatives that inform the public about the importance of transparent procurement processes and their role in combatting corruption, and on how to do business with government institutions. These efforts help foster public trust, encourage broader vendor participation, and strengthen accountability in government procurement systems.

Legal Advisory Services

We offer expert legal advice on procurement laws and regulations.

This helps public institutions navigate the complexities of procurement laws and regulations, ensuring compliance and mitigating risks. Our support includes reviewing procurement legislation, drafting regulatory reforms, establishing accountability mechanisms, and providing guidance on dispute resolution, contract enforcement, and oversight procedures. By embedding legal expertise into procurement systems, Chemonics helps governments build resilient, transparent, and rule-based procurement environments that foster public trust and reduce corruption.

Anti-Bribery Standards and Norms

We work with both public institutions and private vendors to promote anti-bribery and ethical conduct in public procurement.

Through targeting training, technical assistance, and policy advisory, we help public buying entities and private vendors adopt ethical behaviors, enhancing transparency along the public procurement lifecycle.

Case Studies

Case Study

Promoting Transparency and Integrity in Peru’s Public Procurement System

Peru's civil society and private sector leaders were often excluded from public investment and procurement. Across the country, Chemonics united civil society, media, and government to promote transparency and strengthen the ability of public institutions to prevent and respond to corruption.
