| dc.description.abstract | A well-functioning procurement system is an essential requirement for a developing country like Kenya. In order to
promote development, proper management of scarce resources is vital. A system that ensures transparency, efficiency, cost
effectiveness, easy to control and monitor can accelerate development to great heights. It will encourage fair competition and
freedom of information amongst trading partners in a regional block. This can be achieved by using an electronic government
procurement system realized as a web based internet portal. This paper explores the design methodology applicable to the design
and implementation of an electronic Government Procurement System (e-GP). The paper further shows how Object Oriented
technology can be applied to model the business artifacts of the system through the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The
internet provides a lot of information through the web that makes better decisions to be made quickly. | en_US |
