Uniquely, The Bureau has ultimately ensured time effectiveness by ensuring that the process of registration of contractors/suppliers/service providers that work with various MDAs, receiving, vetting and approval of proposed projects and project costs from various MDAs is free from unnecessary administrative bottlenecks by treating them as they are received without accumulating documents, a great upgrade from what has been.
