Background NationalPublicProcurementAgency(LKPP)developedandreleasedthee-procurementsystemknownasSPSEin2008.In2012,LKPPissuedadecreewhichrequiredSPSEtobewidelyusedbygovernmententitiesincludingtheexecutingandimplementingagenciesofADB-financedprojects.ADBconductedmultipleassessmentsofSPSE,includingthelatestassessmentonSPSE3.6.in2017andidentifiednecessarymodificationsinordertouseSPSEforADB-financedprocurement.
ToaccommodateADBrequirements,LKPPdevelopedaspecialversionofSPSE,knownasSPSEICB,basedonSPSE3.6.ThesystemwasimplementedtosupportADB-fundedprojectsprocessedundertheMinistryofPublicWorksandHousing(MPWH).SPSEICBwasconfiguredtosupportandmanagetheuseofframeworkagreementsforconsultantempanelment,supporttheregistrationofforeignbiddersandprovideanEnglishuserinterface.ToaccommodatetheuseoftheEnglishinterface,SPSEICBwasmodifiedtoexcludetheuseofAppendo,theencryptionutilityappliedinSPSE’ssubmissionprocesswhichwasinBahasaonly.ForSPSEICB,encryptionofsubmissionswasmanagedinternallywithintheapplicationandallsubmissionswerestoredinthedatabaseinanencryptedformat.AdditionalmodificationswerealsomadetosupporttherequirementsofMPWHaspartofMPWH’transitiontotheSPSEplatform,includingsupportforuploadingmultiplefilesaspartofthebidsubmissionprocess.
