Recently, this area has drawn a great attention from academicians and researchers. Despite the government effort to disburse a large amount of funds to the lower level government authorities, still there is substandard performance which has been reported by various stakeholders. The general objective of the study was assessing the effectiveness of procurement and contract management and implementation in the local government-lower level authorities. It sought to assess the role and capacity of actors in the lower levels, application of procurement laws, guidelines and regulations, independence of powers and political influence and the relevance of procurement methods which were used to answer the research questions. Cross-sectional survey research design was used to execute the study; targeted population was 186 respondents from wards, villages and committee members. Sample size of 127 respondents was drawn using slovin‟s formula and about 80 respondents were obtained for the study. Both questionnaires and interview guide were used as tools for data collection, Inferential and descriptive statistics methods including frequencies, percentages, levels of significance and correlations using SPSS as a tool for data analysis were used to give the findings. Representative reliability and construct validity were adopted for research quality assurance. The findings revealed that, there was high significance relationship between the variables (Sign-0.000) and variables relevance of procurement methods and independence of powers and political influence had positive contribution to the effectiveness of procurement and contract management in the lower level authorities (positive coefficients,0.353 and 0.229 with significance values of 0.001 and 0.018) the other two variables, role and capacity of actors and applicable procurement laws, guidelines and regulations had negative relationship(-0.106 and -2.40 with significance values of -.289 and 0.018).It was recommended that, the government should make effort to have a regulatory framework that will stipulate who (procurement personnel) and how procurement processes and contract management will be implemented.
