Key Findings

Socio-political instability and "pays lock" periods significantly impacted CNMP's operations and hindered major project implementation during 2018-2019.
77 public markets, totaling 7.68 billion gourdes, were finally validated by the CNMP, demonstrating effective resource utilization despite constraints.
Competition was a strong factor, with 70% of validated markets (54 out of 77) resulting from competitive bidding, including over 53% from open calls for tenders.
Only 12 Annual Public Procurement Plans (PAPMPs) were submitted by public institutions, representing half of the previous year's submissions and indicating a lack of compliance.
The 2018-2023 Strategic Plan faced delays in validation and implementation, with no actions concretized in its first year, highlighting governance challenges.

Full Description

The National Public Procurement Commission (CNMP) presents its annual report for the 2018-2019 fiscal year, outlining its regulatory and control activities amidst significant socio-political turbulence in Haiti. Despite these challenges, which included strikes and "pays lock" periods, the CNMP managed to effectively execute a substantial part of its action plan. Key achievements include the final validation of 77 public markets financed by the Public Treasury, amounting to over 7.6 billion gourdes, with a strong emphasis on competition, as 70% of these markets resulted from competitive bidding. The report also details the CNMP's efforts in institutional strengthening, capacity building for public procurement actors, and improving market control. It highlights the under-submission of Annual Public Procurement Plans (PAPMPs) by public institutions, with only 12 plans received out of an expected higher number. Furthermore, the CNMP continued its work on information system development, including a new Public Procurement Information and Management System (SIGMAP) and an electronic archiving project. The document concludes by acknowledging ongoing challenges, such as delays in validating the strategic plan and the need for further reforms to enhance transparency and efficiency in public spending.
