New Delhi, Aug. 8 -- Government e-marketplace (GeM) celebrated its 9th foundation day on the theme of 'Ease, Access and Inclusion'.
The initiative was launched in 2016 to promote transparent, inclusive, and efficient public procurement in line with the mission of 'Minimum Government, Maximum Governance.'
To celebrate this occasion, a 'GeM Seller Samvad' was hosted to discuss the measures for building a more inclusive and future-ready procurement system.
At this event, key reforms were introduced, including the elimination of caution money for sellers, the realisation of vendor assessment fees, and a reduction in transaction charges.
