WORLD BANK HAILS MANePS PROGRESS

The World Bank has commended the Public Procurement and Disposal of Assets Authority (PPDA) for the significant strides made in implementing the Malawi National Electronic Procurement System (MANePS).

World Bank Lead Procurement Specialist Howard Bariira Centenary made the remarks during a meeting on Tuesday October 6, 2026 saying the progress made so far is encouraging.

He thus urged the Authority to remain vigilant and scale up communication and training efforts.

Centenary said sustained support is critical to ensure all entities are ready and comfortable using MANePS by December 2026.

PPDA’s Acting Director General Timothy Kalembo described the World Bank Feedback as timely adding the authority is leaving no stone unturned ahead of the December 2026 deadline.

MANePS is funded by the World BAnk through the Perfomance for Results (PFORR) component.

The Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Assets Authority has challenged business owners in Zomba and surrounding areas to master the use and utilization of the Malawi National Electronic Procurement System (MANePS).

Acting Director General for the Authority Timothy Kalembo made the call in Zomba during dedicated training for Micro, Small and Medium Entrepreneurs (MSMEs) about the system.

Kalembo reiterated that MANePS offers numerous business opportunities for MSMEs since the system streamlines preferential treatment for small businesses in line with the PPDA Act of 2025.

He said MANePS is a government reform agenda under Public Procurement and aims at enhancing Transparency and Accountability thus reducing corruption in the process.
