President of the Ghana Institute of Procurement and Supply, Simon Annan, has called for the speedy passage of the Procurement and Supply Bill into law.
He said having such a bill in place will regulate procurement practice, provide statutory authority for the operation of the Institute to facilitate constituency, standardisation, and uniformity. He reiterated the need to have a Bill in place to be backed by an act of Parliament to regulate the practice of procurement in Ghana.

Global President of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, Chief Teete Owusu-Nortey, urged the inductees to commit their time and resources to benefit the next generation and emphasised the importance of professionalism in the field.
The induction ceremony was attended by procurement and logistics professionals and relevant stakeholders.
