Shukor bin Ibrahim, director of the eProcurement unit under the Ministry of Finance (MOF) told FutureGov Asia Pacific that IFMS is another major ICT system based on online strategic reporting to facilitate effective decision-making by the top management.
Ibrahim said one of the main features of the IFMS is the strategic dashboard that provides a multi-dimensional view of the current performance of the MOF’s strategic programmes for the top management review and intervention.
“MOF will be the first government in Malaysia to embark on the initiative”, he added.
Ibrahim said the government has taken considerable actions to combat corruption by improving corporate governance in the financial management and procurement of public sector under the transformation programme.
Among other projects of MOF is the National e-Tendering Initiative which serves as the platform to process online works tenders under the Works Ministry. The system, which is currently in the pilot phase, will be automated to process all procurements under the works category.
MOF has also launched the MyProcurement portal that acts as the central repository system to record, archive and publish all tender activities which have been awarded by all the ministries.
Ibrahim said the project resulted in an increased level of transparency by enabling the public to openly scrutinise all tender awards.
