The Provincial Government of Northern Samar is shifting to digital procurement services, adopting the Purchase Request Management System (PRMS) which was introduced recently to its human resources today. In a training held at the Ibabao Hall of the Provincial Capitol, the initiative aims to improve the processing of purchase requests by introducing a technology-based system that will help address the challenges of procurement such as transparency and delays, proposed by the Local Finance Committee, primarily the Provincial Accounting Office, Provincial Bids and Awards Committee (BAC), in partnership with the Management of Information Systems (MISO). The new system enables offices to track the status of their purchase requests without having to visit multiple offices, saving both time and resources. The Provincial Government hopes to adapt well to the Electronic Financial Indexing and Requisitioning Management System (eFIRMS) for the management of its finances, purchase requests, and centralized indexing to better serve its publics.
