The present study investigated the effectiveness of Tendering procedures in Local
Government Authorities in Tanzania; A case of Mafia District Council. The study was
conducted in Mafia at Mafia District Council Head quarter. The sample included twenty
five (25) Mafia District Council employees of which four (4) were from Procurement
Management Unit.
The findings of this study showed that; In Mafia District Council the researcher
witnessed some instances of non-adherence to Tendering procedures as stipulated in
PPA No 21 of 2004 and its regulation of 2005, lack of advertisements, non–publicized
award and failure to have comprehensive procurement plans to guide the procurement
process.
The study also revealed that apart from non-adherence to tendering procedures Mafia
District Council has a competent Tender Board with members having technical
competence and skills to undertake the required functions. The secretary to the tender
board is a procurement specialist and is the Head of Procurement department and he has
required qualification as by the PPRA. However the study noted some shortcomings that
need to be addressed to make the exercise meaningful and effective.
This study among other things recommends the following; one, the provision of the PPA
No 21 of 2004 and its regulation of 2005 must be adhered to as required by the law; two,
the annual procurement plan should be prepared using the templates provided by the
PPRA; Three, appropriate standard bidding document and standard documents for
inviting quotations issued by PPRA should be used as per requirement in the PPA of
2004 and PPR of 2005. |
