Sat Jul 6 01:19:48 UTC 2013

Hi All,

Indonesia has the largest government procurement system which is online,
transparent and reliable. Lembaga Kebijakan Pengadaan Barang/Jasa (LKPP) or
the Government Goods and Service Procurement Policy
Agency<http://www.lkpp.go.id/v3/en/> enacted
as government regulator, then every government agencies have their
centralized-procurement task forces and monitored by National Procurement
Portal <http://inaproc.lkpp.go.id/v3/>. they use IT system called
electronically procurement system or Layanan Pengadaan Secara Elektronik
(LPSE)  . to date, there are 1009 registered agencies use and will increase
significantly following the number of provinces, regencies and
municipalities including national government ministries and agencies.

Looking forward to hear other countries or institutions used
electronically procurement system,

Regards from Jakarta
YUDI
