The Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Assets Authority has challenged business owners in Zomba and surrounding areas to master the use and utilization of the Malawi National Electronic Procurement System (MANePS).
Acting Director General for the Authority Timothy Kalembo made the call in Zomba during dedicated training for Micro, Small and Medium Entrepreneurs (MSMEs) about the system.
Kalembo reiterated that MANePS offers numerous business opportunities for MSMEs since the system streamlines preferential treatment for small businesses in line with the PPDA Act of 2025.
He said MANePS is a government reform agenda under Public Procurement and aims at enhancing Transparency and Accountability thus reducing corruption in the process.
