Technical Assistance for e-GP Implementation – Government of Benin

benin

Background & Challenge

Benin’s procurement system was highly manual, fragmented, and lacked the governance needed for digital transformation. The government aimed to modernize by introducing a centralized e-GP system to improve access, reduce costs, and combat corruption.

Our Approach

Evolve provided end-to-end technical assistance focused on aligning digital transformation with institutional realities. Key contributions included:

 

  • AS-IS/TO-BE Analysis: Diagnosed existing procurement processes and designed optimized digital workflows.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Facilitated in-depth consultations with ministries, agencies, and suppliers to ensure practical relevance and ownership
  • Solution Model Advisory: Guided the government in selecting the most suitable e-GP implementation model based on local constraints
  • Functional Specifications: Delivered a detailed technical blueprint to support structured, phased implementation.
  • Strategic Procurement Support: Advised on vendor selection and contract management to ensure system sustainability.

Outcome

The project is laying a strong foundation for e-GP in Benin by addressing procurement inefficiencies, designing future-ready workflows, supporting implementation model selection, and driving reforms to improve accessibility, transparency, and fraud prevention.
