Abstract

Electronic procurement of government’s goods or services (e-procurement) which launched by the Government in 2010 is aimed to increase transparency and accountability as well as to realize clean and good governance and it has been commenced into practice by the Local Government of Kampar, Riau Province since 2012. Since its commencement in 2012, no study has conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of this service in achieving its ultimate goals. Hence, the objective of this research is to examine the effectiveness of the e-procurement in realizing good governance and to identify obstacles affecting its effectiveness in the Regency of Kampar. This empirical legal research collects primary data through in-depth interview with the head of ULP of Kampar and the officer of the Attorney Office of Kampar as the key informants and several contractors and suppliers as respondents. Besides, the researchers also carry out observation in the LPSE Office of Kampar Regency. Moreover, this research is supported by secondary data from the literature study. The collected data is analyzed with a descriptive qualitative method. The result of this study shows that e-procurement has become a supporting system in increasing transparency and accountability and the realization of clean and good governance in the Regency of Kampar. However, to optimize the functions of this system, the Local Government of Kampar has to take into consideration resolving the problem of lack of the number of qualified human resources to be balanced with the number of procurement packages. Moreover, the Local Government of Kampar is also advised to provide an extra budget to develop network quality and internet security in the LPSE of this regency.
