Bhubaneswar / Blantyre (Malawi): CSM Technologies Ltd. has secured a prestigious international assignment from the Public Private Partnership Commission (PPPC) of Malawi through CSM Tech Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary in Kenya.

The project envisages design, development and commissioning of an Electronic Auctioning Platform (EAP) under the Digital Malawi Acceleration Project (DMAP).

Funded by the World Bank through the International Development Association (IDA), the assignment valued at INR 32.08 million marks another significant milestone in CSM Technologies’ growing global presence and reinforces India’s expanding role in enabling DPI across developing nations.

The EAP will introduce a secure, transparent and fully auditable digital mechanism for conducting competitive auctions, replacing manual and paper-based processes with an automated workflow. The platform will enable online bid submission, real-time evaluation, bidder anonymity, automated ranking and electronic publication of results, thereby enhancing transparency, efficiency and accountability in public procurement.

The 12-month long assignment forms part of the Digital Malawi Acceleration Project, a six-year initiative under the World Bank-supported Inclusive Digitalization in Eastern and Southern Africa (IDEA) programme. The project seeks to expand digital connectivity across Malawi by facilitating transparent procurement of broadband services and targets benefits for over 75 lakh broadband users in the country.

Commending on the development, Priyadarshi Pany, Managing Director & CEO, CSM Technologies, said:” We are honoured to partner with the Government of Malawi and the World Bank in building a transparent, technology-driven auctioning ecosystem that strengthens governance and accelerates digital inclusion. This project further strengthens our commitment to delivering mission-critical GovTech solutions that create measurable public value across the world.”
