80% of that money will go into someone's pockets.  I'd like to "know" how someone will do this when all tender processes are going to be online. Ama ni kuibiwa ukiangalia tu! Are the counties ones Online too? They can "be forced" to put their tenders on the same platform, sema wepewe mondays, tuesdays kitu kama hiyo, where would the issue with counties using this platform arise? there are too many solutions being sold out there, unless they are preparing to eat and "they" are not one person. I agree they should. My question is whether they are on the IFMIS platform now. If the govt purchases can be centralised in a system accessible easily and transparently by all stakeholders, govt would save a lot of money. First, suppliers would compete openly without the "deal" additions added on top of the actual prize. Two, govt would save through economies of scale by negotiating for discounts from suppliers due to the huge volumes involved. Until that is done, we shall continue buying a pen at 120shillings and a tissue for 500bob per piece; and nothing will ever change. Uhuru started this system when he was a Finance Minister, I hope he see it through in his team as PORK. As someone once said here, eating will be quite hard soon. Hehe unless the system has pre-loaded market rates, bidders will have to cough up money to land deals, ie if you want to supply samosas for an year give us 2 million and you get a 50 million deal. To Each His Own
