Introduction and Purpose.
In keeping with its commitment to maintain the highest standards of conduct and ethics, Komuge Community Initiative (“KCI”) has adopted this Procurement Policy (“Policy”) to ensure that goods and services purchased by KCI are obtained in a cost-effective manner and in compliance with applicable laws of Uganda (PPDA)
The acquisition processes described in this Policy apply to all purchases made by (1) KCI’s Purchasing Department, and (2) KCI programs independent of the Purchasing Department by employees, directors, officers, or agents (together, “KCI Purchasers”). Purchases may also be subject to prior funding source approval and additional requirements imposed by grants or contracts. Program Directors are responsible for reviewing any such additional requirements, bringing them to the attention of the Purchasing Department, and ensuring that contractors and vendors perform in accordance with the terms, conditions, and specifications of their contracts or purchase orders.
