Arif Sundar, Banik Gour BRAC Institute of Governance and Development, BRAC University Urban Local Bodies Public procurement Capacity assessment This dissertation is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Procurement and Supply Management, 2016. Cataloged from PDF version of dissertation. Includes bibliographical references (page 15). In the context of the new vision of local government institutions, the government plans to entrust the municipalities and city corporations with enhanced development role in their respective areas of jurisdiction. The government is encouraging and empowering the municipalities and corporations to undertake increasingly more development programmes/projects for catering to the needs of the citizen. As part of that intend, huge development works have been implementing through government allocation, different development partners assistance and ULB’s own resources. In case of development partners assisted project, Local government Engineering Department (LGED) has play vital role to eliminate possibility of “mis-procurement” irrespective of goods, works and services. In contrast, all Municipalities have experience with low value procurement and evaluations from their local budget or from national funds for goods and civil works and have no experience in service procurement. From this study, the weakness of the procurement function of municipalities in the area of i) Organizational and Staff Capacity, ii) Information Management, iii) Procurement Practices, iv) Effectiveness and v) Accountability Measures came to the surface through the interviews of the personnel of engineering section who are responsible for all sorts of procurement. Inadequate human resource, lack of proper training and logistics are the causes identified through this study. Another challenging part of municipality capacity is the “random” transfer of staffs. However, a further rigorous evaluation is needed prior to take any initiatives to enhance the capacity of municipalities. Md. Arif Shahid M.
