dc.description.abstractThis research paper is concerned with the purchases Management and Reporting in Public sector. The study was conducted in the Tanzania Ministries in Dar es Salaam. Briefly the research makes use of descriptive statistics to analyse the Purchases Management and Reporting in Public sector. A sample of 100 respondents was picked from 10 ministries in Dar es Salaam. The results show that the Purchases management and reporting in public sector plats a big role in the whole process of public procurement. In order public procurement to be conducted properly the government has to establish appropriate tools to manage it and procurement practitioners have to comply with the PPA, 2005 in executing their duties and responsibilities. Despite having these controlling and managing tools the study also found that, there are factors that contribute to poor procurement practices in public sector, there include lack of knowledge and understanding of PPA 2004 and PPR 2005 by both procurement practitioners and bidders, lack of procurement auditors, absence of stern measures against poor procurement practitioners; poor preparation of specifications and terms of references; pressures from other interested parties like senior officials and politicians and the decentralization of auditing institutions. This research, though limited by inadequate availability of empirical literature particularly those discussing purchases management in public sector; the limitation however does not substantially reduce the generalizations of the results.en_US
