Timor-Leste
Timor-Leste’s MAPS MAIN assessment was conducted at a pivotal stage in the country’s public procurement reform agenda, supporting the transition towards a more coherent and modern procurement framework following the adoption of the 2022 Public Procurement Law. The assessment reviewed a procurement system undergoing significant institutional change and identified opportunities to strengthen the implementation of the new legal framework, improve coordination across procurement institutions, establish an independent procurement appeals mechanism, build professional procurement capacity, introduce a nationwide e-procurement system, and reinforce transparency, performance monitoring, and integrity throughout the procurement cycle.
