[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Gwangyang City announced on the 26th that it held the Gwangyang City Contract Review Committee member appointment ceremony at the city hall situation room on the 22nd.

The appointed members on that day totaled 15, consisting of experts from various fields such as construction-related technicians, university professors, and civic groups.

Following the appointment ceremony, during the executive election meeting, it was decided to elect executives from among the civilian members to enhance the transparency and fairness of the committee's operation. As a result, Hyunjeong Ha was elected as the chairman, and Manho Han was elected as the vice chairman.

After the executive election, the Contract Review Committee held the "First Contract Review Committee Meeting of this Year" and deliberated and resolved two agenda items requested by the Waterworks Department, including the "Establishment of Basic Waterworks Maintenance Plan and Technical Diagnosis Service for Local Water Purification Facilities," thus beginning full-scale activities.

The Contract Review Committee operates with a two-year term until December 31 of next year and reviews matters related to bidding qualifications, contract methods, successful bidder determination methods, and other contract-related issues for construction projects estimated at 5 billion KRW or more and goods/services contracts of 1 billion KRW or more.

Gwangyang Mayor Hyun-bok Jeong said, "Based on fair and transparent contracts, I ask for the active participation and cooperation of the review committee members so that we can carry out administration that is more trusted by citizens."

Meanwhile, Gwangyang City has distributed this year's contract operation guidelines to all departments, established the principle of contracting with local companies for private contracts under 20 million KRW, and actively encourages the use of local subcontractor employment, equipment, and material purchases when announcing bids and notifying successful bidders, promoting contract administration to expand orders for local companies.
