The Department of Education (DepEd) is advancing its procurement reforms to improve the integrity of its bidding process, as emphasized by Secretary Eduardo “Sonny” Angara.
Speaking at the first-ever Suppliers’ Summit in Manila, Angara highlighted the importance of suppliers and service providers as key partners in these reforms.
He introduced the Suppliers’ Registry, a platform designed to connect suppliers directly with market opportunities and streamline procurement processes to reduce delays.
The registry allows businesses to register their products and services, receive bid alerts, and communicate with DepEd more efficiently.
As of March 2025, DepEd has already awarded P1.9 billion in projects, including laptops, smart TVs, and learning resources for schools across the country.
