About the Bureau

Jigawa State Due Process & Project Monitoring Bureau

Established in 2007 to promote transparency, accountability and value for money in all public procurement activities across Jigawa State.

Our vision

To be a world-class procurement oversight agency that ensures transparency, accountability, and value for money in all public sector procurements in Jigawa State.

Our mission

To promote open, competitive and transparent public procurement through due process certification, monitoring, and capacity building, in accordance with the Jigawa State Procurement Law.

Our mandate

Six statutory functions.

The Due Process & Project Monitoring Bureau (DPPMB) is responsible for ensuring that all government contracts are awarded through competitive bidding processes in accordance with the Jigawa State Procurement Law 2019 and its Guidelines.

We review and certify all capital projects, monitor project implementation, and publish quarterly reports on contract awards across all ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs).

Guiding principles

Four values, non-negotiable.

I.

Openness

Every tender notice, evaluation minute, and contract award is published within statutory timelines. Nothing material is withheld from the public record.

II.

Competition

Open competitive tendering is the default method. Any deviation requires documented justification and Bureau concurrence before award proceeds.

III.

Value for Money

Lowest evaluated responsive bid — not lowest bid. Quality, life-cycle cost, and delivery risk are weighted into every procurement decision.

IV.

Accountability

Every officer involved in a procurement decision is named in the record. Whistleblowers are protected; wrongdoers are referred to relevant authorities.

Executive leadership

A message from leadership.
