The CPTU was established in April 2002 as a unit within the Implementation
Monitoring and Evaluation Division of the Ministry of Planning. It is headed by
a Director-General, who reports directly to the Secretary, IMED. The DG has a

Analyst, Programmer and other support staff.
The CPTU is a permanent institution of the government, funded under the revenue
budget and established for carrying out the purposes of Section 67 which states
as follows:

through a Central Procurement Technical Unit or any other unit established by it
relating to procurement monitoring, coordination and management, perform the
