- Description
- The National Treasury Regulations (2009) require all government departments to exercise transparency, openness and fairness in the procurement of all goods and services. The aim of this study was to analyse and determine the use of Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) as an internal control measure in the supply chain management (SCM) process by the Department of Roads and Public Works (DRT), Sarah Baartman District Center. Poor internal controls, in relation to SCM regulatory framework compliance, remains a key challenge for the DPWT which led to negative performance information in the audit findings (Auditor-General, 2016/17). SCM falls within the finance management pillar which is one of the most important governance areas in public resource management. The study presents the place and nature of the public SCM environment, relevant theories and legislative frameworks towards an efficient and transparent SCM value chain. The Public Finance Management Act of 1999 (PFMA) is meant “To regulate financial management in the national government and provincial governments; to ensure that all revenue, expenditure, assets and liabilities of those governments are managed efficiently and effectively; to provide for the responsibilities of persons entrusted with financial management in those governments; and to provide for matters connected therewith”. The study adopted a qualitative documentary analysis research approach. A core finding of the study suggested that the provincial sphere of government needed to develop a participatory provincial government strategy for provincial development. A key recommendation that has been forwarded, suggests that the government needs to strengthen the policy on provincial management in order to facilitate sustainable economic growth and thereby promote social welfare gains.
