The Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) has commenced the implementation of its e-Government plan, aligning with the Federal Government’s broader drive toward digitalisation and improved efficiency in public service delivery. This development was announced in a circular titled “Transition to Electronic Submission Procedure at the BPP”, issued by the Director-General of the Bureau, Dr. Adebowale Adedokun, and dated August 4, 2025.
According to the circular, the transition is in line with the provisions of the National Digital Economy Policy and Strategy (NDEPS) 2020–2030 and the National e-Government Master Plan (NEGM) 2021.
Dr. Adedokun stated that, effective August 18, the BPP will no longer accept any form of hard copy submissions from Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs). All procurement-related documents must henceforth be submitted electronically.
“This transition is part of BPP’s ongoing efforts to implement the NDEPS and the Federal Government’s circular on the digitalisation of government operations,” he said.
MDAs are now required to send all submissions via email to: submissions@bpp.gov.ng. Each submission must be attached in two file formats—PDF for official record-keeping, and an editable format (such as .docx or .xlsx) to facilitate review and processing.
In addition, all communications and responses concerning requests for the adoption of Special or Restricted Methods of Procurement under the Public Procurement Act, 2007, are to be sent exclusively to: official@bpp.gov.ng.
As part of the transition process, MDAs are required to submit two functional official email addresses and two active telephone numbers of designated officers to the BPP for formal communication and verification purposes.
Dr. Adedokun urged all MDAs to give urgent attention to this directive and ensure full compliance to avoid any disruptions or delays in procurement submissions and reviews.
