Accra, July 7, GNA - The Public Procurement Authority (PPA) on Thursday cautioned the public against activities of some unscrupulous persons under the guise of awarding contracts on behalf of the Government.
A statement issued in Accra on Thursday said government had not set up any tender board from the Office of the President to provide offsite procurement outsourcing solutions and award contracts on its behalf.
It said contracts in Ghana were awarded only after an exhaustive tendering process in which the awardees were expected to have participated.
"We are by this notice alerting you of their dealings and advising that no purported contract awards from such organisations should be entertained".
"Such tender notices are put out by the individual entities and not a Central Agency on behalf of the Government," the statement added.
The statement cautioned the general public to be wary of such scams and disregard any correspondence ostensibly coming from such entities.
