| Abstract | Public procurement has become an issue of public attention and debate. It has been subjected to reforms, restructuring, rules and regulations. Despite statutory provisions and internal controls, public sector institutions have not fully complied with AGPO regulations for special groups. Millions of shillings are wasted due to non compliance. Little is known on determinants of compliance with AGPO regulations. This study sought to analyze the determinants of compliance with AGPO regulations for special groups by Public Universities in Kenya. This study used a mixed research design as it allowed the researcher to use both quantitative and qualitative research methods. The target population consisted of supply chain officers in all public universities in Kenya. The sample size for this study was therefore 62 respondents from all the public universities. Data was collected using two instruments; a semi-structured questionnaire and an interview guide. The results revealed that prequalification criteria negatively contributed to level of compliance with AGPO regulations. The results also show that selection procedures positively contributed to level of compliance with AGPO regulations. The study findings revealed that contract management significantly and positively contributed to level of compliance with AGPO regulations but it was not statistically significant. The study established that internal processes positively contributed to level of compliance with AGPO regulations. The study concluded that higher threshold of prequalification criteria leads to a lower level of compliance with AGPO regulations for special groups while an elaborate selection procedure leads to a higher level of compliance with AGPO regulations for special groups. This study also concluded that the contracting management has significant impact on level of compliance with AGPO regulations for special groups. The study also concluded that a higher threshold of internal controls leads to a higher level of compliance with AGPO regulations for special groups. |
