| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄第一科技大學 === 營建工程系 === 89 === In the recent decades, the development of infrastructure has been seriously hindered by the unsound and obsolete government regulations and the inefficient performances and numerous scandals have drown public attentions and concerns in the course of executing the public work. The poor results of the public work have gravely damaged government’s image and have long been criticized by the public.
In order to improve this situation and meet WTO requirements of a member country to sign ‘the agreement on government procurement”, our government enacted “Government Procurement Law” on May 27, 1998 and it became effective on May 27, 1999. The new government procurement law has provided an entirely different environment for all the related industries and the public has very high expectation of efficient and high quality procurement results.
This research was designed to use the practices of tender and award of the new government procurement law in Kaohsiung Municipal Government as our study targets. The study period included tenders from the launch of the law till Dec. 2000. By reviewing the written documents and interviewing people involved in the practices, the effects and defects of the new law were identified. It was found that the transparent policy toward the tender information and the lift of the required number of tenders in the second tender announcement, which was cancelled due to lack of three participants in the first announcement tender, did expedite and improve the procurement process. However, there were still some areas need improvment. Many problems were caused by the misunderstanding or different interpretation of the ambiguous words of the law. People that were in charge of the tendering require further training and the interpretation of the law should be more precisely according to the original spirit of the law. Some defects and problems together with suggestions are provided for the government agents handling the procurement and for the responsible authority to properly modify the law.
