Programme

Conference topics

8 sessions across the programme.

  1. Changes brought about by the new amendments to the Public Procurement Regulations published in the Government Gazette No. 8989 of 4 August 2026: what is the future of the Central Procurement Board of Namibia, and will we see greater transparency in the adjudication of procurement contracts with the new increased thresholds?
  2. Non-ending court disputes and delayed public service delivery in Namibia’s procurement sector: should Namibia consider introducing bid protest bonds for multi-million-dollar projects?
  3. Execution by Public Entities as a Procurement Method: is it truly taking business away from the private sector? Case studies: the School Hostel Food Tender and the National Social Grants and Pension Distribution contract.
  4. Protecting the integrity of the bidding process from unethical behaviour, such as bid tampering and collusive tendering.
  5. The initialling of bid documents: a lens through the High Court judgment of Eyambeko Namibia Catering Services (Pty) Ltd v The Chairperson of the Central Procurement Board of Namibia (delivered 17 March 2026).
  6. The victimisation of public procurement officials in public entities: how does the law protect them?
  7. Managing conflict of interest in the procurement process.
  8. Clarity on the debarment and disqualification of bidders under the Public Procurement Act, 2015 (as amended).
