“…Using such a system in the government has positively impacted government performance and country growth by reducing costs on government purchasing, increasing value for money, reducing corruption, increasing trust in government, and encouraging growth. According to Rizki (2018), e-procurement benefits the organisation from improved implementation, such as contract compliance, increased management information, and reduced transaction cost and time spent. Some corrupt officials are vulnerable to corruption due to power, opportunity, pressure, and rationalisation factors.…”

Procurement encompasses activities and processes of purchasing good products and services in the public or private sector. It has been reported that 60% of fraud and economic crime perpetrators in the public sector were from government officials. Procurement fraud has increased in the public sector since 2012. This study aims to investigate the practice and likelihood of fraud in the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) procurement process and to recommend the course to improve the effectiveness of implementing the e-procurement system. This study employed a quantitative method to achieve the objectives of the research. This study adopted a questionnaire from previous research instruments used in many studies related to fraud intention as the primary data collection method. The questionnaire was distributed to the selected officers and other ranks within RMAF. The respondents were among all officers and employees involved directly in the procurement process. Using quantitative research for the data collection method allowed the researcher to evaluate and understand this data through statistical analysis. This study's findings revealed that work commitment, capability, and opportunity had a significant association with the likelihood of fraud in the RMAF e-procurement system when Pearson's correlation was used. Results from regression analysis addressed that capability and opportunity significantly influence the possibility of fraud.

Purpose The substantial benefits of e-procurement to organizations and institutions have, over the past two decades, become central to supply chain management. This study aims to identify the factors that facilitate the adoption of e-procurement system using modified Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2). Design/methodology/approach Using a quantitative approach, the factors identified in the UTAUT2 are operationalized and examined carefully. The investigation has been conducted using a survey questionnaire. The data set has been obtained from 205 construction professionals in Ghana. Findings The research evinced that the decision by individuals to adopt e-procurement is mainly influenced by performance expectancy and social influence. By implication, the study found out that the respondents are more likely to adopt e-procurement if it is seen to be user-friendly and useful, and when they have a community of people supporting its use. Overall, the findings suggest that the model can stimulate a high adoption and intention to use e-procurement technologies, given its good predictive potential and robustness. Practical implications The structures uncovered in the study show that not all UTAUT2 factors are applicable within the study area. The findings provide a good backdrop in the development of policy and a roadmap for e-procurement implementation in Ghana. This is particularly useful for system development and implementation purposes for government agencies, contracting organizations, professionals and users of e-procurement technologies. Originality/value The original contribution and value of the paper is the use of UTAUT2 to provide evidence on their significance to e-procurement adoption among construction professionals.
