MISSION
The Works Supervision Unit (WSU) is the service delivery arm of the Connect PNG Infrastructure (MPAs & SIPs) for the Milne Bay Provincial Government, hence our aim is to provide the updated reporting on the Service Delivery information for the province and its people.
This Platform is the WSU's effort in attempting to present the Milne Bay Infrastructure Delivery Program plans and Progressive status information in order to achieve the required MBPG Service Delivery Outcomes (KRAs & KPIs) for the Provincial Integrated Development Plan 2023-2027.
As quoted from the MTDP IV, "Digitization and integration of public service systems will help improve governance and service delivery at the National, Provincial and District levels. This will enhance strategic planning, better coordination and evidence-based decision making for National development and transformation". Additionally our mission is to report on, "the key Deliberate Intervention Programs to develop SPA 8...", especially SPA 8.6 which is noted below;
DIP 8.6: Public Service Administration - An efficient Public Sector enables Government to expedite service delivery for its people. Government will implement public service administration reforms to achieve efficiency and productivity and strengthen service delivery modalities.
