Botswana National Productivity Centre (BNPC) - Gaborone - Botswana

The Botswana National Productivity Centre (BNPC) was established through an Act of Parliament in December 1993 as a Parastatal with a tripartite board comprising of representatives from government, employers’ and workers’ organisations together with a few stakeholders.
The statutory mandate of the BNPC is to enhance the level of productivity awareness as an advocacy function and to enable individuals and organisations through training and consulting to be productive and competitive. The enablement process involves assisting organisations to adopt best management practices through productivity enhancing tools and techniques.
Our Mandate is to:
