With this post we seek every possible procurement issue that you are aware of in regards to your municipality. Kindly list them all so we can jointly understand the issues and develop solutions.

it would be better to standardise equipments , system and process depending on volume . there may be many suppliers which can fulfil the terms/ conditions in quality and guaranty/warranty of the equipments . depending on the track record , price and delivery supplier should be selected . system should be online and accessible to public scrutiny. the team who is responsible for procurement should be accountable for failure or inferior quality of equipments and system. keep updating citizens in form of newsletter , advertisement , billboards the activities taken by local government and progress chart. more  
The opportunity to engage with the community on the topic of municipal corporation's procurement issues is greatly appreciated. My best wishes to the local circle team for initiating this conversation. With regards to procurement, I submit two (2) issues: 1) Transparency related to tenders is clearly an issue. 2) Lack of citizen engagement regarding tenders for work that affects them is another concern. I look forward to the opportunity to submit Root Causes in the next set of conversations. Best regards, Gaurav Sobti more
