碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 犯罪學研究所 === 101 === A variety of corruption of government procurement constantly happens in the past, particularly the commissioners of procurement select committee abuse their authority to their own benefit and advantage. This study is based on concluding related judgments and studies of government procurement and crimes involved in this area and analyzes the characteristics of modus operandi. This study also raises the concrete suggestions and strategies in terms of how to prevent the crime of government procurement. The method of research is mainly based on「Content Analysis」, we have found that the main modus operandi can be divided into「leaking modus」and「non-leaking modus」. Leaking modus can be subdivided into 「basic style」and「disguising style」according to the channels leaking related information through supplier or the third party. Non-leaking modus can be subdivided into「conspiracy style」and「blackmail style」. The result of analyzing 10 symbolic judgments projects some characteristics below:（1）the symbolic style for leaking modus is tipping off the list of commissioners of procurement select committee and constitutes crimes of either「profiteering」or「accepting a bribe or other improper benefits for a breach of official duties」；（2）entreating and lobbying are main causes of crimes on procurement corruption；（3）in order to bribe the officials and commissioners of procurement select committee, suppliers need to conspire with the third party, which forms a conspiracy structure including industry, official and scholar, to disguise their intent；and（4）commissioners of procurement select committee seldom actively blackmail suppliers but they are easy to get bribed as facing entreating or lure. This study suggests that the government should in place set up related mechanisms to protect whistle blower；to encourage people to report illegal behavior；to assess the performance of suppliers carrying out contracts；to enhance the fairness of tender evaluation；to implement the legal system of entreating and lobbying；and to reduce incentive of illegal lobbying.
