| Summary: | The findings of this report confirm the
long deeply felt need for modernization of the public
procurement and contract management functions in Paraguay.
The report recommends specific actions on the legal
framework, procedures, organization and resources conducive
to achieve that objective. however, modernization should not
be approached in isolation from other state modernization
initiatives. On the contrary, the success of procurement
modernization is highly contingent on the successful
implementation of reform initiatives in other areas such as
financial management, civil service, government structure,
the Office of the Comptroller General, etc. To a certain
extent Paraguay is overwhelmed by parallel technical
assistance operations competing for government attention and
resources. The chalenge is to achieve an effective
cordination of the various modernization initiative making
use of and enhancing the limited poool of national
resources, and bringing in different external views and
expertise. The goals and pace of reform should be consistent
with the country's technical and financial absorptive capacity. |
