This initiative aims to ensure public funds are managed with professionalism and accountability, aligning with global best practices in contract management.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"ap-article-header-tag\"> <strong>Africa-Press &#8211; Mauritius. <\/strong> <\/span>The Ministry of Finance (MOF), in collaboration with the Association of Consulting Engineers Mauritius (ACE), is currently conducting the third batch of a training programme on the Fe\u0301de\u0301ration Internationale des Inge\u0301nieurs-Conseils (FIDIC) Conditions of Contract from 23 to 26 March 2026, as part of Government\u2019s ongoing efforts to promote excellence, transparency and value for money in public sector projects.<\/p>\n<p>The training programme kickstarted, this morning, at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Public Service and Innovation at Co\u0302te d&#8217;Or Technopole in Moka, in the presence of the Head of the Project Management and Contract Administration Unit (PMCA) of MOF, Mr Kaviraj Santchurn; ACE member, Mr Deven Daliah; and Lead Analyst of PMCA, Ms Tasneema Abdoolcurim.<\/p>\n<p>The current session is primarily aimed at Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineers from the Ministry of National Infrastructure, the Ministry of Land Transport, the Ministry of Environment, Solid Waste Management and Climate Change, and the Ministry of Energy and Public Utilities.<\/p>\n<p>In his address, Mr Santchurn emphasised that the training forms part of a key capacity-building initiative aimed at ensuring public funds are managed with the highest standards of professionalism, accountability and legal clarity. He noted that achieving value for money requires technical professionals to be well versed in up-to-date and internationally recognised contractual frameworks, adding that investment in human capital remains essential for the long-term success of national infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted the importance of mastering global best practices in contract management and encouraged participants to actively engage in the training sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration between the MOF and ACE Mauritius was formalised through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding on 25 June 2025. The first and second batches of the training programme were held in May 2025 and October 2025 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The FIDIC Conditions of Contract are internationally recognized standards that guide project management and contract administration. The training program initiated by the Ministry of Finance in Mauritius reflects a commitment to improving the capabilities of civil servants involved in infrastructure projects. This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance transparency and value in public sector projects, ensuring that public funds are utilized effectively and responsibly.<\/p>\n<p>Since the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Association of Consulting Engineers Mauritius in June 2025, the government has prioritized capacity-building initiatives.
