That tender splitting is allowed to facilitate wider participation of local consultants, suppliers or contractors? If so, then a
procuring entity shall seek PPRA’s prior approval.
East Africans embrace multi-stakeholder approach toaddress governance challenges in pharmaceuticalprocurement
47TH UNION ANNIVERSARYThe Board of Directors, Management and staff of the Public Procurement Regulato-
ry Authority join all Tanzanians in celebrating the 47th anniversary of the Union
between Tanganyika and Zanzibar.
We wish to express our commitment towards improving the welfare of the Tanzani-
ans through creation of an enabling regulatory environment in which public procure-
ment achieves the ultimate goal of delivering value for money to the Country.
Our Vision: To become a world-class model, effective and sustainable public procure-
ment oversight body.
Our Mission: To foster and promote value for money in public procurement for
national development.
Practitioners from the three East African
countries, namely Tanzania, Kenya and
Uganda have joined efforts to address
governance challenges in procurement and
supply chain management of pharmaceuticals
in the region. This follows a five-day region-
al workshop that was held in Nairobi from
11th to 15th April 2011. The workshop on
“Strengthening Governance in Pharmaceuti-
cal Procurement” was organised by the World
Bank Institute (WBI). It brought together
stakeholders from governments, private sec-
tor, civil society, academia, and media to
identify governance gaps and challenges in
pharmaceutical procurement.
During the workshop, it was realized that
countries within the region were in different
levels of development with respect to gover-
nance and capacity issues in pharmaceutical
procurement and supply chain. There was
therefore a strong feeling that efforts need to
be integrated and leverage on the strength of
multi-stakeholders was found to present a
good opportunity. In his opening remarks on
behalf of the Kenyan Minister of Health Serv-
ices, the Head of Kenya Medical Supplies
Agency (KEMSA), Mr. John Munyo, talked
about dissatisfaction in health service deliv-
ery, a problem which appears to cut across the
region. He attributed this to lack of trans-
parency and accountability and urged all
actors in the pharmaceutical procurement and
supply chain to be actively involved in
addressing the governance challenges which
are already known. Mr. Monyo said “We
should now focus on getting the right solution
to address the disease rather than putting too
much effort on symptoms.”
Participants in the workshop were introduced
to the key concepts of “Flagship for procure-
ment reforms” by a renowned professor of
economics in health systems from Harvard
University, Dr. Marc Roberts. Professor
Roberts explained the most important health
system outcomes, the way of measuring them
and issues to consider when choosing out-
come priorities. Based on these important
concepts, participants were introduced to the
diagnostic tree methodology which they used
to identify major issues to address in their
respective countries. Interestingly, all three
countries seem to have a convergence of
health issues.
Stakeholders in public procurement
have a vital role to play in ensuring
that professionalism prevails in all
public procurement processes, the Chief
Executive Officer of the Public Procure-
ment Regulatory Authority (PPRA), has
said.
Dr. Ramadhan Mlinga said this in the
speech he gave as Guest of Honour during
the Procurement and Supplies Profession-
al Annual Day, which was held on 16
April, 2011 at the University of Dar es
Salaam.
Highlighting the fact which calls upon
every stakeholder of public procurement
to guard against malpractices in the pro-
fession, Dr. Mlinga said that public pro-
curement related issues account for about
70% of Government expenditure, which
implies that unethical procurement and
supplies professionals, if allowed to pre-
vail, would undermine the nation’s devel-
opment plans significantly. “Stakeholders
should play a vital role in ensuring that
professional competencies and the profes-
sion’s code are maintained throughout,” he
said.
Dr. Mlinga said that for keeping abreast
with the latest news and best practices in
public procurement, professionals should
make use of the online procurement
forum, which is available at the PPRA
website as a simple way of exchanging
views among professionals.
He further reiterated that regulatory frame-
work in Tanzania requires various steps to
be taken as prerequisite for effective pro-
curement and which are stipulated in the
various guidelines issued by PPRA from
time to time, including Standard Tender
Documents, the Public Procurement

PPRA underscores stakeholders’ rolein fostering professionalism
It became quite clear to everybody that pharma-
ceutical system processes are complex as they
involve; registration and quality testing, manu-
facturing, tracking inventories and use, forecast-
ing needs (quantification), tender process as well
as supply chain (distribution). Other processes
include diagnosis and prescriptions, dispensing to
and purchasing by patients, utilization by
patients, inspection and enforcement of related
laws and regulations. All these processes involve
many stakeholders and complex relationships,
thus contributing to serious transparency and
accountability challenges. It is for this reason that

PROCUREMENT ARTICLE
CAG report on the review of procurementprocesses in public authorities in FY 2009/10This report is an extract from the
report of the Controller and Auditor
General (CAG) on the financial state-
ments of the public authorities for the
financial year ended 30th September
2009, 31st December 2009 and 30th
June 2010. It is reproduced in TPJ
with the Permission of CAG.
As part of its mandate, PPRA shall
make a follow up on the various short-
comings raised in this report to assist
the procuring entities in improving
their procurement procedures.
CHAPTER FOUR
4.0 REVIEW OF CON-
TRACTS AND COMPLIANCE
WITH THE PUBLIC PRO-
CUREMENT LEGISLATIONS
IN LGAsThe Public Procurement Act No. 21 of
2004 defines procurement as the process
involving buying, purchasing, renting, leas-
ing or otherwise acquiring any goods or
works or services by a procuring entity
spending public funds and includes all
functions that pertain to the obtaining of
any goods works or services including
description of requirements, selection and
invitation of tenderers and preparation and
award of Contracts. Given the fact that sub-
stantial amount of the government
resources devoted into the procurement of
goods and services, there is a need for
enhancing financial discipline and trans-
parency throughout procurement process
for the sake of achieving optimal level of
value for money.
4.1 Compliance with Procure-
ment LegislationsSect. 44(2) of the Public Procurement Act
No.21 of 2004 and Reg. No. 31 of the Pub-
lic Procurement (Goods, Works, Non-con-
sultant services and Disposal of Public
Assets by Tender) Regulations, 2005
requires me to state in my annual audit
report whether or not the audited entity has
complied with the provisions of the law and
its Regulations. In view of this responsibil-
ity to procuring entities including Councils,
my general statement is that, the status of
compliance with the Public Procurement
Legislations learned from the transactions
tested as part of my audits is still not satis-
factory as far as the legal requirements is
concerned.
4.2 Effectiveness of Procure-
ment Management Unit
(PMU)The Public Procurement Act No.21 of 2004
Sect. 34 and Reg. 22 of the Local Govern-
ment Authorities Tender Board Regula-
tions, of 2007, requires that, in every
procuring entity (PE) there shall be estab-
lished a PMU staffed to an appropriate
level. The PMU shall consist of procure-
ment and other technical specialists togeth-
er with the necessary Supporting and
Administrative Staff.
Review of effectiveness of PMU during
this year in various Councils as compared
to the preceeding years shows deterioration
of their performance. During the year under
review, 29 Councils were noted with inef-
fective Procurement Management Units
compared to 11 Councils reported in the
previous year’s audit report.
The noted weaknesses includes; Suppliers
providing services before signing the con-
tract documents and failure to prepare
monthly procurement and other reports for
Tender Boards as per Sect. 35 (o) and (q) of
PPA, 2004 and Reg. 23 of LGATBR, 2007.
Summary of the noted weaknesses is as
detailed in the table 1.
During audit, it was noted that the major
cause of non-compliance with PPA of
2004 and its underlying Regulations of
2005 is lack of established or effective
PMUs within the LGAs as procuring
entities. In some cases, the existing
PMUs are not staffed to an appropriate
level and some staff and members lack
appropriate procurement qualifications
and training.
4.3 Appraisal of Contract
management and procure-
ment of goods, works and
services in LGAsThis paragraph highlights general aspects
of compliance with the Public Procure-
ment Act No.21 of 2004 and its related
Regulations of 2005 and the Local
Authority Financial Memorandum of
1997. It also, deals with contract man-
agement and compliance with procure-
ment legislation matters that were found
to be material to be included in this report
and that were reported in the manage-
ment letters to the respective Councils
during the financial year ended 30th
June, 2010. My review of the general
aspects of compliance with the above
cited legislations noted the following
shortfalls:
4.3.1 Stores not recorded in
Ledgers Shs. 577,578,107Order No. 207 of the Local Authority
Financial Memorandum of 1997 requires
a record of receipts, issues and physical
balances of each item of stores to be
recorded on a separate page of the store
ledger showing details of purchase like;
date of purchase, the goods delivery note,
number and the rate per item. Further, it
requires the record on date of issue, the
quantity of issue, the store issue number,
and the physical balance. However, test
checks on the management of stores
observed that, 24 Councils did not adhere
to the above Order as shown in Annexure
21.

delivered Shs. 240,494,600Reg. No. 122 (1) of PPR (Goods, Works,

ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION FEE REMINDER NOTICE
Procurement and Supplies Professional and Technicians Board (PSPTB) established 2007 by
Parliamentary Act No.23 of 2007 is the successor of the National Board for Materials
Management (NBMM) founded in 1981 by Parliamentary Act No.9 of 1981. PSPTB is, therefore,
a regulatory body to oversee, register and regulate conducts of Procurement and Supplies
Professionals and Technicians.
The Board intends to deregister and publish the names of all Professionals and Technicians who
have not paid their outstanding annual subscription fees. You are therefore reminded to settle all
unpaid annual fees before 30th April, 2011. After that date names of all defaulters will be pub-
lished in newspapers together with the outstanding amounts against their names.
For those who will fail to comply with this notice, will be deregistered and hence pursuant to sec-
tion 11 of Act no 23 of 2007, and thus become ineligible to practice any procurement and sup-
plies activities in Tanzania.

PROCUREMENT REPORTS

Public assets by Tender) of 2005 requires
a procuring entity to obtain reports on the
receipt of goods that have been delivered
against contracts in order to authorize
promptly payment to the supplier. To the
contrary, goods worth Shs. 240,494,600
ordered and paid for in eight Councils
were found undelivered as shown in the
table 2.
4.3.3 Procurements made
without competitive bidding
Shs. 570,589,420
Review of procurement records for the
year ended 30th June, 2010 noted a sum
of Shs. 570,589,420 paid by twenty six
(26) Councils for procurement of works,
goods and consultancy services without
following competitive bidding process
contrary to Reg. 63 of the PPR of 2005.
This is an increase of Shs. 402,062,833
compared to Shs. 168,526,587 reported
in my previous year’s report where six-
teen (16) Councils effected payments of
this nature. Non-adherence to standard
procurement procedures may cast doubt
on whether the value for money was
achieved.
The table 3 shows the amount paid for
each Council without competitive bid-
ding.
Councils’ management should ensure
that, at least three competitive quotations
are sought from the suppliers of goods
and services before the procurement is
effected to comply with the standard pro-
curement procedures. In case of single
sourcing, justification has to be provided
and approved.
4.3.4 Inadequate documenta-
tion of contracts and project
records Shs. 1,755,429,901Adequate documentation of contracts
and project records is crucial for easy ref-
erence and effective execution and mon-
itoring of the contracts and projects.
A systematic documentation would also
facilitate easy access to information by
the Councils themselves and other inter-
ested parties including Development
Partners and Auditors.
However, review of contracts manage-
ment during the year under review
revealed a number of inadequately docu-
mented contracts where, vital informa-
tion/documents were noted missing in
the respective contract files including
contract agreements, Bills of Quantities
(BOQ), Engineers’ estimates, interim
certificates and procurement made out-
side the Procurement Plan.
The level of compliance to procurement
legislations is still inadequate although
there is an improvement in monetary
terms where, during the year under
review, a sum of Shs.1,755,429,901 as
detailed in Annexure 22 was noted to
have been incurred in expenditure of this
nature compared to Shs.1,930,772,578
reported in my previous year’s audit
report.
The Councils’ management is once again
called upon to strengthen the procure-
ment processes in order to obtain value
for money in funds used on this area.
Pursuant to Order No. 281 of LAFM of
1997, the respective Councils should
appoint contract officers to be specifical-
ly responsible for the management of
each contract and the mornitoring of con-
tracts performance.

The Ministry of Informa-
tion, Culture and Sports
(MICS) was found not
publishing tender awards in
2009/10 as required by the law
for reason that it was expen-
sive, the report by PPRA on
post-audit review released in
September 2010, revealed.
According to the report, the
action by the Ministry not to
publish, contravened the public
procurement act and regula-
tions, which require all tender
awards by procuring entities to
be published. In addition,
copies of notifications of
awards were not sent to PPRA
for posting on website and
journal as required by section
55(8) of the public procure-
ment act which states:
‘The procuring entity shall
notify the Authority, within the
time set out in the Regulations
made under this Act, the name
of the person or body to whom
the contract is awarded, the
amount of tender or proposal
and the date on which the
award was made’.
As a result of the Ministry’s
failure to comply with the
above provision, Regulation
21(1) of Government Notice
no. 97 which states that ‘The
Authority shall publish in the
gazette, local newspapers of
wide circulation in United
Republic of Tanzania, and in
its journal and website, the
names of those who have been
awarded the contract, the con-
tract amount, the date when
the award was made, contract
period, and the final contract
amount paid to the supplier,
contractor, or service provider
and the price at which the
assets disposed off by tender
have been sold’, could not be
implemented by the Authority.
By and large, the Ministry has
improved in complying with
public procurement require-
ments as indicated by 58%
compliance level in 2009/10 as
compared to 23% in 2007/08.
A complete audit follow up
report for MICS starts on page

Ministry claims tender publication expensive
Professor Roberts elaborated
to the participants that the role
of Regulation is to improve the
private sector performance in
the pharmaceutical sector in
which case he emphasized on
developing a proper regulatory
strategy that is aimed at low
hanging fruits, high value tar-
gets, public and political sup-
port and behaviours that can
easily be noticed.
The workshop finally agreed
on seven priority areas to
address governance issues in
pharmaceutical procurement,
namely; improved information
flow in pharmaceutical
Procurement and Supply
Chain Management (PSCM),
improved mobile drug track-
ing, enhancing good gover-
nance in the health sector,
multi-sectoral PSCM capacity
building, corporatization of
pharmaceutical procurement
agencies, citizen empower-
ment for access to medicine,
and recognizing multi-stake-
holder groups as a legitimate
partner to improvement of
good governance in pharma-
ceutical procurement. Each
country chose its priority area
and prepared its key mile-
stones and activities including
the timeframe. The action
plans will further be refined in
subsequent country meetings
and WBI will continue to offer
support to such initiatives.
Tanzania was represented by a
multi-stakeholder group of 11
people from PPRA, TFDA,
MSD, Private Sector, Univer-
sities, and CSOs.
To facilitate information shar-
ing and consultations, WBI has
on 11th April 2011 launched an
electronic platform called
ENEPP. The platform is acces-
sible at www.enepp.net. Pro-
curement practitioners can
access a wealth of information
about the initiative reported
here upon registration.

PROCUREMENT REPORTS
Procurement audit follow-up results for financial year 2009/10On 17th September 2010, the Monitoring and Compliance Committee of the Board of
Directors of PPRA approved the report on the audit follow-up exercise which was conducted
in 91 procuring entities to assess implementation of audit recommendations issued after the
procurement audits in the financial years 2007/08 and 2008/09. The follow-up audits indicat-
ed a remarkable compliance improvement from average levels of compliance of 50% and
55% in the financial years 2007/2008 and 2008/09 respectively, to an average level of com-
pliance of 73% which was above the target. PPRA had a target of ensuring that the average
compliance level of procuring entities reaches at least 69% by the end of the FY 2009/10 and
eventually 80% by the end of the financial year 2010/11.
This report is a continuation of results of 91 audited procuring entities.
Ministry of Information Culture and Sport (MICS)
After the assessment, it was observed that the average level of compliance of the entity
increased from 23% to 58%. On one hand, the performance was above the target of 69% in
six out of thirteen indicators namely: Establishment and Composition of Tender Board;
Advertisement of Bid Opportunities; Time for Preparation of Bids; Use of appropriate meth-
ods of procurement; Quality assurance and Contract Implementation. On the other hand, the
average performance was below the target on the following seven indicators: Establishment
and Composition of PMU; Functioning of AO, TB, PMU and User Department; Preparation
of Annual Procurement Plan; Complying to compulsory approvals; Publication of contract
awards; Use of Standard Tender Documents; Records Management.

tiated as having been done contrary to the require-
ment under Regulation 97 (12) of GN. No. 97 of
2005.

required wide attraction of bidders were provided
sufficient time as per the Third Schedule of GN No.
97 of 2005.
Methods of Procurement
31 contracts under Direct shopping had cummula-
tive total of T.shs 50,000,000/=, threshold 117

Methods of Procurement
Most procurement contracts reviewed were using
appropriately authorized methods of procurement in
accordance with the limits of application in Second

implementation processes most tender diverted
from proposed NCT to RT method of procurement.
Use of Standard Tender Documents
PE did not make use of standard tender documents
issued by PPRA.
Use of Standard Tender Documents
PE used appropriately standard solicitation docu-
ments for goods, works and non-consultancy servic-
es issued by PPRA as provided under Regulations 83

improperly amended by the PMU and at time com-
bined nine (9) packages in form of lots for Goods,
and Provision of Services in a single BD for Goods,
contrary to Regulation 83(3) and (4) of GN 97 of
2005.
Record Keeping
The audit revealed that all tenders have no complete
records.
Record Keeping
The system of Record Keeping generally is poor,
Procurement Contract Files were maintained in the
Registry rather than in PMU custodian.
Quality Assurance
No evidence for goods Inspection Committee con-
trary to Regulations 126 (1) and 127 of GN 97 of
2005.
Quality Assurance
The following was observed currently:

Continued from page 6
Observations during the 2007/2008financial year procurement audit
Observations during the 2009/2010financial year audit follow-up
Contarct Implementation
43 out 151 contracts which complied to Terms and
Conditions of the signed contract concluding that there
is supervision of works contracts.
Contarct Implementation
The follow up team observed that contracts
implementation compliance were for some proj-
ects only. Most payment documents to deter-
mine the set in terms and conditions of contract
fulfilment were not available.
Other issues observeda) The Ministry PMU staff are well trained,
academic qualified and experience in sup-
plies roles, nevertheless prove weakness
in their understanding of salient features
of PPA No. 21 of 2004 and its Regulations
of 2005. It is hereby advised that, the PE
has to build capacity of MTB members,
PMU and staff from User departments on
PPA and its Regulations applications to
cope effectively with procurement
arrangements.
b) Regulation 90(4) of GN 97 and
Regulation 58 of GN 98 of 2005 requires
Evaluation Committee to evaluate tenders
using explicitly Terms and Conditions set
in bidding documents. It was noted that
failure to amend appropriately
Qualification and Evaluation criteria in
the Tender Evaluation Committee, result-
ed to evaluators using insufficient qualifi-
cation and evaluation criteria. For exam-
ple, in consultancy services, Proposal
Data Sheet had no sub criteria inserted to
be appropriately used by evaluators to
give the award the best responsive bidder.
Recommendationsa) PE should ensure that capacity building is
done to all dealing with procurements.
AO should carry out in-house training to
enable members of MTB, PMU and user
departments comprehend the salient fea-
tures of PPA 2004 and its Regulations
2005, mechanism of preparing Annual
Procurement Plan and their effective con-
tribution towards effective implementa-
tion of procurement activities;
b) AO should allocate a separate office that
could be used to improve procurements
archive and smoothen record keeping and
reporting by having all information relat-
ed to tenders/contracts in one file; includ-
ing the necessary supporting and adminis-
trative staff;
c) PMU is streamlined in terms of command
by reporting directly to AO and working
as department and not committee. Carry
out situational analysis to identify all
those engaged in procurement activities
in the PE, identify skills needed to staff it
appropriately;
d) PE should ensure PMU is involved in con-
tributing towards preparing Medium
Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF)
and when preparing Annual Procurement
Plan, user department do participate to
clarify objectives. APP should be pre-
pared using standard templates issued by
PPRA as it has been done in 2010/2011
and is being updated whenever one activ-
ity is accomplished;
e) PE should ensure that when AO delegates
his authority as CEO should be done to
person outside members of TB or PMU to
avoid intervention with functions of each
organ in procurement process;
f) TB should ensure that approves all solici-
tation documents and that PMU does not
delete some rows or amend improperly
ITT in BDS when preparing solicitation
documents, and all modified procurement
contract and solicitation documents are
ratified by the competent State Attorney
and PPRA respectively;
g) PE should ensure that there is proper filing
system established within the
Procurement Management Unit. The
PMU should ensure that each
Procurement Contract File must include
all information concerning procurement
process, contracts management, inspec-
tion and acceptance reports and payment
documents;
h) Inspection teams for the purpose of veri-
fying the authenticity of the goods , works
and non-consultancy services are formu-
lated as when need arise and the team pre-
pares inspection and acceptance reports
performed; and
i) PE must ensure that contracts are imple-
mented according to the terms and condi-
tions agreed.
