Project Procurement Practices Affecting Disposal of Assets in Government Agencies in Kenya
Abstract
This study addressed the persistent inefficiencies in the disposal of assets within Kenyan
Government Agencies, which contribute to significant financial losses estimated at Ksh 30 billion annually. Despite regulatory frameworks such as the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act (2015), issues like inadequate disposal planning, weak communication systems, poor risk management, and limited stakeholder participation hinder effective asset disposal. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of project procurement practices on disposal of assets in Government Agencies in Kenya. The study was guided by four objectives: to examine the effects of communication systems, disposal planning, risk management, and stakeholder participation on disposal of assets in Government Agencies in Kenya. The research was grounded in Resource-Based View (RBV) Theory and Stakeholder Theory. The study adopted a descriptive research design. The target population for this study was the 81 Government
Agencies in Kenya with the unit of observation being 504 employees from selected
procuring entities who included top management, middle management and operation
management level staffs. Using Yamane's formula, a sample of 223 respondents was selected
