The Biennial Report of Procurement and Supply Management 2020–2021 highlights the strength and relevance of the procurement function on supporting governments in the Americas to protect and enhance people’s health, by improving access to quality essential health products across the Region, responding to emergencies, and improving and equipping primary health care facilities. This biennium has been of great relevance for the procurement function, because of the challenges that COVID-19 posed, in terms of seeking access to key supplies that protect, detect, treat, and prevent this virus in millions of people in our region, while we keep supporting our countries on accessing all other health technologies for the routine health programs. The procurement team at headquarters and in our countries not only showed an enormous commitment to our organization and our countries, but also turned challenges into opportunities by adopting modern technologies, increasing our market intelligence, and implementing innovative procurement tools, while strengthening our collaboration with our countries, technical teams, and suppliers.
