LAHORE: The Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB), in collaboration with the Punjab Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA), organised an e-Procurement orientation and training session for all the senior civil judges of Punjab at the Punjab Judicial Academy.
According to the PITB here on Monday, PPRA MD Waqar Azim conducted a detailed interactive session on the PPRA legal framework as part of the training session. The PITB e-Procurement team provided the orientation of the PITB-developed system covering different modules.
In this regard, PITB Chairman Faisal Yousaf said that the e-Procurement system incorporates modern techniques to ensure secure, efficient government procurement.
