The state of India is to implement electronic procurement by leveraging the

Information Technology tools and the best practices of e-Government procurement. EProcurement

is included as an important and essential part of e-Gov+ernance initiatives

go on upon by the state. The prime objectives of e-Procurement are demand

aggregation, transparency, accountability processes across government entities to bring

in administrative efficiency. The system helps the people of India to make their

transaction reliable, faster and make the service of the government good. Plus this

system decreases the possibility in making corruption. When it comes to the people who

are illiterate and poor, there are members of the government that can support or teach

them how to use the system.

If this system implements in the Philippines, transaction between people and

government will be easier and faster. Maybe some who works in the government may

not approved this system because it can stop or decrease corruption. There are many

intelligent Filipinos who can work for that system, but the question is, is the government

willing to help this people or support them develop the system? There are many issues

in our country that only people can solve.
