Procurement is a critical government activity, yet very little
scholarly attention is devoted to procurement fraud in public
policy, public management, or public financial management research.
While many publications focus on the stages of the procurement
process and appropriate protocols to follow for successful
procurements, the opportunities for exploitation of the process
have not been as widely studied. Procurement fraud is similarly
understudied in the white-collar crime literature, where attention
has primarily been placed on corporate crime or political
corruption. This book extends criminal justice and white-collar
crime scholarship by using these literatures to frame public
procurement fraud. Additionally, organizational behavior approaches
are applied to public procurement fraud to explain possible
motivations for this type of occupational crime. This book takes an
interdisciplinary approach to provide insights into the
characteristics of individuals who abuse the procurement process
for personal gain, and it offers some strategies for detecting and
preventing further abuse. Original research is also presented and
compares the offender-based and offense-based characteristics of
the perpetrators of public procurement fraud with those of street
and white-collar criminals. The intention of this book is to
elevate the issue of public procurement fraud and to align it with
criminal justice and white-collar crime scholarship.
