Short description:
The finance unit within the National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for financial accounts, management reporting, procurement, grant management, accounts receivable, accounts payable, external/internal audit, risk management and corporate governance.

To support this growth the NTA has concluded that, in a phased manner, the current existing finance system will be replaced with a modern Solution which will enable process improvement resulting in greater efficiencies.
