This book presents an interdisciplinary exploration of the
governance of public procurement reform in Africa. Through a
bottom-up approach to case studies and comparative analyses,
scholars, practitioners, and social activists write about the
organizational mechanisms and implementation gaps in public
procurement governance in light of the general premises of national
reform. Reforming the ways in which government purchases works,
goods, and services from the private sector is one of the most
sweeping policy reform undertaken in Africa in the past decade.
Despite the transnational scope of policy change, very little is
known about the mechanisms of public procurement governance at the
subnational level. The argument in this volume is that policy
reforms that mitigate contractual hazards along the
three-dimensional "law-politics-business matrix" are more likely to
bring about meaningful institutional transformation and broader
social accountability. Key to substantive transformation of public
procurement is the revitalization and professionalization of the
public sector to meet the opportunities and challenges of
development by contract.
