Title Source: Supreme Court: Amendment on Community Participation in Procurement

Law: Gppb No. 03-2013

Decision Date: Jan 21, 2013

GPPB Resolution No. 03-13 amends the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Government Procurement Reform Act to include the participation of local communities in the delivery of goods and simple infrastructure projects through Community Participation.

Amendment to Include Goods and Simple Infrastructure Projects

The resolution amended Section 53.12 to include participation in the delivery of goods, non-consulting services, and simple infrastructure projects.
This broadens the scope beyond just services to ensure full procurement cycle coverage under community participation.
The amendment was deliberated and approved by the Government Procurement Policy Board (GPPB) and Inter-Agency Technical Working Group.

Legal Basis and Authority

The authority to amend the IRR flows from Section 63 of RA 9184 empowering the GPPB to formulate and amend procurement rules and standard forms.
The amendment responds to evolving procurement needs and aligns with sustainability and social objectives.

Implementation Guidelines

The GPPB is tasked to develop and formulate guidelines outlining procedures for projects using the community participation modality.
These guidelines are essential for the practical application and regulatory compliance of Section 53.12.

Effectivity and Endorsement

The resolution took immediate effect upon approval on January 21, 2013.
It was signed by representatives from multiple government departments including Budget, Education, Energy, Health, National Defense, Public Works, Trade, Transportation, and a private sector representative.
The Board Secretary of the GPPB attested the resolution, giving it formal administrative validity.
