Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>THE tender issuing authority, the Central Procurement Board of Namibia (CPBN) has a new boss \u2013 Amon Ngavetene, who took office on 1 April.<\/b><\/p>\n

He was appointed by finance minister Iipumbu Shiimi, for a period of three years, replacing former chairperson and administrative head of the board, Patrick Swartz.<\/p>\n

Swartz and his deputy Lischen Ramakhutla were appointed five years ago by former finance minister Calle Schlettwein on 1 April 2017.<\/p>\n

According to the statement released by CPBN, Ngavetene will also head the operations of CPBN as acting head administrator during his appointment.<\/p>\n

Awaiting High Court admission as a legal practitioner, Ngavetene is a corporate governance expert with special emphasis on risk and compliance, and holds several qualifications.<\/p>\n

He has a bachelor of laws degree from the University of South Africa, and passed the legal practitioners admission exam. He also has a certificate in management development programmes from the University of Stellenbosch; and a bachelor of education degree from the University of Namibia.<\/p>\n

The CPBN was established to conduct the bidding process on behalf of public entities in the awarding of contracts for procurement or disposal of assets that exceed the threshold prescribed for public entities.<\/p>\n

It is further mandated to enter into contracts for procurement or disposal of assets on its own behalf, or on behalf of public entities awarded by the board, and to direct and supervise accounting officers in managing the implementation of procurement contracts awarded by the board.<\/p>\n

According to the CPBN, during Swartz’s leadership, the board was able to deliver various procurement activities, since its inception in 2017.<\/p>\n

This includes the approval of individual procurement plans valued at N$20 billion, direct procurements worth N$6 billion, transitional procurement matters to the tune of N$7 billion, and competitive bidding with a total amount of N$4 billion.<\/p>\n
