description | The study focused on the procurement process and the performance of government-funded
projects, using a case study of the Rulindo District local government in Rwanda. Its primary
goal was to investigate the procurement process used by local governments to obtain goods,
works, and services. Its specific objectives were to analyse factors that affect the public
procurement process of government projects in Rulindo district local government, explain
gaps in the procurement process and their effect on the success of government-funded projects
in Rulindo district local government, discuss the support provided by the Rwanda Public
Procurement Authority (RPPA) to Rulindo district local government, explore the time it takes
Rulindo district local government to complete government-funded projects, and identify
possible causes of delays in the public procurement process of government-funded projects in
Rulindo district local government.
Using survey design, it was possible to get a variety of views and opinions from procurement
officers, who were sampled and selected both purposefully and by simple random sampling
techniques. The views, opinions, attitudes, and experiences of respondents were obtained
using a questionnaire as the main instrument. The study revealed that there were delays in
public procurement due to the procurement law itself, budget constraints, a lack of qualified
personnel in public procurement, a lack of procurement plans, the financial capacity of
contractors, bureaucracy, and a lack of monitoring of awarded tenders.
Local governments were recommended to develop annual procurement plans based on the
availability of funds, look for qualified personnel and define mechanisms for retaining them,
and develop a monitoring framework that would allow them to better monitor procurement |
