Description
The e-Pak Acquisition and Disposal System (EPADS) is a digital platform used by the Government of Pakistan—specifically under public procurement and asset management processes. It is designed to digitize, streamline, and ensure transparency in the acquisition (procurement) and disposal of public assets, especially for government departments and agencies.
Key Features of EPADS:
Procurement Automation: Helps automate and manage the public procurement lifecycle in compliance with PPRA (Public Procurement Regulatory Authority) rules.
Asset Disposal: Digitally manages the process of disposing of obsolete or surplus government assets, such as old machinery, vehicles, or equipment.
Transparency and Accountability: Enhances visibility into government transactions and helps reduce corruption or malpractice.
Tracking and Audit Trail: Maintains a digital record of procurement and disposal processes, making audits and oversight easier.
Integration with e-Governance: May integrate with other digital systems like budgeting, inventory, or planning tools for a unified experience.
