According to the Authority, after October 2023, any entity that is not on the system would be slapped with punitive measures.
Deputy Chief Executive Officer of PPA, Kwame Prempeh, who disclosed these, did not mention the kind of punitive measures, but it was believed such entities would pay huge sums of money to have their staff trained to effectively use the system, and be boarded onto the system.
About 600 public entities are expected to be fully operational on the Ghana Electronic Procurement System (GHANEPS) by October 2023, says the Public Procurement Authority (PPA).
