The Office of the President-Elect (OPE) has officially designated the sectoral teams tasked with managing the government transition process. Led by Marco Vinelli, these groups are responsible for gathering information across all ministries to prepare a diagnostic report before the incoming administration takes office on July 28.
Establishing the transition framework
The formalization of these technical teams follows an announcement made on July 3 by President-elect Keiko Fujimori. According to the OPE, the primary objective of this process is to ensure an orderly handover of power. Fujimori has stated that the transition mission is designed to provide clarity on sector priorities, allowing the new government to act with speed and responsibility upon assuming office.
Did You Know? The transition process is being conducted under the direct mandate of President-elect Keiko Fujimori, with Marco Vinelli serving as the designated head of the transition team.
Coordination with the current administration
The transition process is currently supported by the outgoing executive branch. Following the official results proclaimed by the National Jury of Elections (JNE), the President of the Council of Ministers, Luis Arroyo, issued a formal directive to all cabinet members. This document instructs outgoing ministers to accredit the representatives from Fujimori’s team and provide full access to all necessary documentation.
The directive from the Council of Ministers extends beyond the cabinet level to include viceministries, special programs, and public agencies. Arroyo has explicitly requested that these entities facilitate the transfer process to ensure transparency and institutional collaboration. The stated goal of this cooperation is to maintain the uninterrupted delivery of public services during the final weeks of the current mandate.
What happens next
As the July 28 inauguration approaches, the sectoral teams will focus on compiling data from their respective ministries. The diagnostic reports generated by these groups are expected to serve as the roadmap for the incoming administration’s initial actions. It is likely that these teams will continue to coordinate with outgoing officials to finalize the review of documentation and ensure that all public services remain functional throughout the remainder of the transition period.
