The Department of Public Works and Highways Regional Office VIII successfully conducted a Refresher Course on Supply and Property Management last February 9-10, 2026 at the DPWH Multi-Purpose Hall, Government Center, Brgy. Baras, Palo, Leyte.

The two-day activity gathered supply and property personnel from various district engineering offices across the region to strengthen compliance with existing government accounting and property management rules, enhance operational efficiency, and reinforce accountability in handling government assets.

The refresher course focused on key areas of supply and property management, including proper inventory procedures, asset recording and reporting, disposal processes, and updates on relevant government regulations. Participants were provided with practical insights, case discussions, and clarifications on common issues encountered in property custodianship and supply chain management.

Representing the Northern Samar Second District Engineering Office (NSSDEO), Ms. Imelda A. Dolo, Administrative Officer III, and Ms. Glea C. Gloton, Administrative Assistant I, actively participated in the discussions and learning sessions. Their attendance underscores the office’s commitment to maintaining accurate property records, ensuring transparent utilization of government resources, and upholding the highest standards of public service.
The refresher course served as a valuable platform for knowledge-sharing and capacity-building, empowering supply and property officers to perform their duties with greater efficiency, integrity, and adherence to established guidelines. Through initiatives like this, DPWH continues to promote sound asset management practices in support of effective infrastructure delivery and responsible governance.
