dc.description A Research Report Submitted to Mzumbe University, Dar es Salaam Campus College, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Award of the Degree of Master of Science in Procurement and Supply Chain Management
dc.description The study has assessed the factors that contribute to non-compliance of Public Procurement Act in the public procurement. The study took place with the justification of the persistence of the practices where the Government procures its goods, works and services with violation to what PPA instructs. The researcher distributed the questionnaires to collect the primary data and also analyzed the available secondary data. The researcher adopted the purposive sampling procedures as she intended to get opinions from the practitioners in procurement, audit and other regulatory organs for public procurement. From the study, it became apparent that the major factors contribute to noncompliance to PPA are the human actions deliberately done including corruption and collusions. Another factor that was highly supported by the study to have a substantial bearing on no-compliance to PPA is the Government bureaucracy and lack of enterprising culture in its operations. In accordance to the findings of the study, the following recommendations have been made by the researcher:-  The Government is required to put a system in place that will encourage aggregated procurements to enjoy the economies of scale by following what is in PPA and do follow up for the benefit of the nation as whole.  The Government need to introduce and encourage in its operations the enterprising behaviors to be able to catch up with the attitude of the fellows from the private business community when working under Public Private Partnership (PPP) The regulatory bodies and the law enforcement organs must ensure the full compliance with the law while undertaking the public procurement. It will be deterrent measures to discipline the staffs who are proved to have taken part in defrauding the Government during public procurement and will deter others in doing the same.
