DG BPP, Dr. Adebowale Adedokun, Recognised Among CIPS 2025 Procurement Pioneers

The Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) has named the Director-General of the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP), Dr. Adebowale Adedokun, FCIPS, as one of its distinguished 2025 Procurement Pioneers—a global recognition reserved for forward-thinking leaders shaping the future of procurement and supply chain management.

In an era marked by rapid economic shifts, geopolitical tensions, rising costs, and heightened sustainability concerns, procurement professionals are increasingly regarded as pivotal strategic drivers within organisations. Their expertise now sits firmly at the intersection of risk management, innovation, and long-term value creation.

CIPS, through its annual Procurement Pioneers programme, celebrates 15 outstanding professionals who are redefining the procurement landscape with groundbreaking ideas, strategic excellence, and leadership impact. Dr. Adedokun’s inclusion in this elite group underscores his contributions to elevating procurement standards, enhancing transparency, and championing reforms within Nigeria’s public procurement ecosystem.

As a Procurement Pioneer, Dr. Adedokun will serve as a thought leader within the global CIPS community throughout 2025. His insights and experiences will be featured across a range of platforms, including expert articles, podcasts, and CIPS events. Alongside fellow honourees, he is expected to help shape discussions on the future of procurement, strengthen professional practice worldwide, and highlight the expanding influence of procurement leadership in navigating today’s highly volatile global economy.

This recognition further positions Dr. Adedokun and the BPP at the forefront of procurement excellence, reinforcing Nigeria’s presence in global reform conversations within the sector.
