摘要:Survey design was used in this study. The study will be conducted at the head office of KenGen in Nairobi and will involve members of projects implementation teams from the Finance, Business Development and Strategy, Operations, Supply Chain and Legal divisions/departments. The target population was 446 employees who were participating in the implementation of energy plant projects in KenGen in the last 20 years. The population was drawn from five divisions/departments that form part of the project implementation teams. Qualitative data was used to give descriptions of events and also to give good understanding of the industry. The data collection tool that was used was questionnaires. The study used both descriptive and content analysis to analyze the collected data. All the respondents stated that KenGen has faced challenges with the Public Procurement and Disposal Act. These ranged from the lengthy procurement process, the winning bidder though the lowest not necessarily being the best or most competent, interference by senior management in the bid evaluation process (vested interests), expiration of bid securities before evaluation was done, delays in completing evaluations within the legal time limits and lack of cohesion in the evaluation teams.
