In 2006, the UN issued a UN Supplier Code of Conduct that stipulates that suppliers must comply with the values enshrined in the United Nations Charter.
In 2007, we put into effect a policy on post-employment restrictions for UN staff entrusted with procurement functions. In 2008, we amended the governance structure of the UN Procurement Division to further enhance internal controls and oversight. In 2010, the UN amended the Award Review Board and formed the Senior Vendor Review Committee to strengthen internal control, transparency, accountability and risk mitigation in the UN procurement process. |
