dc.description.abstract | Procurement is critical for the Malawi Police Service, and the research, this dissertation, An Analysis of Procurement Risk Management in the Malawi Police Service: Challenges and Strategic Solutions, explores procurement risks and identifies strategic solutions to mitigate them, thereby improving operational efficiency. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research collected data from 100 officers through structured questionnaires and detailed interviews. They are illustrated with significant dangers, such as tardiness of suppliers, corruption, insufficient budget allocations, and inefficiencies of procurement processes. This complicates procurement operations and puts at risk service provisioning availability. The paper argues that the study identifies a few measures to combat these challenges, including improvement of existing transparency mechanisms, establishment of e-procurement systems, ensuring compliance with procurement laws and strengthening capacity-building initiatives. The study further emphasizes the need for policy changes that bear specific relevance to the context of law enforcement agencies in the Malawian setting. Thus, it advances understanding of the procurement risk management concept as applied to work within law enforcement agencies and presents a potential evidence base for those seeking to inform procurement behavior of relevant stakeholders in similar situations. | |
