Greater Karachi Water Supply Scheme (K-III Project) Integrity Pact
Mission
Ensure transparency and integrity in public procurement processes related to the Greater Karachi Water Supply Scheme
Activities
Transparency International Pakistan served as the civil society monitor to oversee procurement related to the Greater Karachi Water Supply Scheme (K-III Project) in 2001. The IP has been credited in this project with contributing to greater transparency, corruption prevention, and significant cost savings and value for money for this large infrastructure procurement. This success resulted in Pakistan's procurement rules requiring IPs in all public tenders above PKR 100 million.
