As part of the on going financial management reforms, the South African Government introduced the Supply Chain Management (SCM) Framework.

Information Technology (IT) and systems are a sine qua non in supporting the implementation of the SCM Framework. However, IT does not operate in a vacuum.

The local governance system has undergone positive changes since 1994 when the Government of National Unity took over power in Rwanda.
