They are key to ensuring financial transparency, implementing digital reforms, and adhering to procurement laws.
The General Services Department is in charge of managing the facilities in the FPOs. However,
some of the government-owned
FPOs Buildings are
underutilized and their request for maintenance are mostly not included in the budget, hence their requests are not addressed.
Therefore, there is a need for integration of FPOs into the General Service
departmental oversight and planning in order to address maintenance budgetary challenges of the FPOs. Attached is the report of the nationwide asset verification exercise of conduct by the Asset Tracking and Management Project (ATMP) across all FPOs (please see Annex VI)
