Dear Readers, visitors, friends and partners,
I am honored to welcome you to the official site of the Uganda Contracts Monitoring Coalition (UCMC). Established in 2011, the Uganda Contracts Monitoring Coalition (UCMC) is a non-partisan multi-stakeholders’ initiative established to promote contract performance through promoting transparency, participatory approaches and accountability in the planning, bidding, awarding, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of Contracts.
UCMC is a voluntary, charitable and not for profit loose network. It is a part of an Africa-wide movement to promote transparency and accountability in the development and implementation of public contracts. Since 2011, we have been working with the Ugandan Government to promote value for money in public procurement through monitoring of public contracts. We are proud that our work and partners has been able to bear some fruits by making Uganda part of a global recognition that disclosure and citizen participation in public contracting are essential for enhancing value for money, improving services, promoting fair business practices. Uganda began to publish procurement data on Government Procurement Portal, aligned to the Open Contracting Data Standard which sets an example for other African governments to venture out on the journey for a more open, transparent and accountable public procurement system together with civil society.
