dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this research is to assess project procurement management practices at the Ministry of Energy. Self-help electrification projects (SHEP) were suspended in about 50 communities in the Hohoe South and Kpedze areas because 50% of the imported wooden poles were discovered to be inappropriate for electrification project. This adversely impacted the project as well as the communities’ socio-economic growth The objectives of this study are; to identify the project procurement management practices carried out at the Ministry of Energy for rural electrification/SHEP project, to examine the influencing factors for the choice of procurement management system adopted by the Ministry of Energy for rural electrification/SHEP project, and, to identify the effects of procurement management system on the outcome of the rural electrification/SHEP project. A population of 78 professional procurement respondents were reached across the country, through ‘convenience and purposive sampling’. Data from a total of 63 questionnaires were received and collected out of the 78 respondents constituting a response rate of 80.8%. This revealed that Open procedure also known as the competitive procurement practice is the most commonly used procurement management practiced under the SHEP, scoring an evident sky-high RII of 0.922. In view of these findings, the following are recommended; quarterly auditing, monitoring and evaluation of procurement management process to prevent corruption and promote good governance, capacity building training for both junior and senior procurement officers.en_US
