Abstract
The topic of my research was ethical behavior in procurement decision making and the area of
my study was at the District Commissioner's office in Kipkelion District. The study took place at
the months of September and October 2011.
The purpose of the study was to identify the level of ethical behavior in decision making in
Kipkelion district and to determine the impact on the moral development on the employees.
Determining the strategies of enhancing ethical decision making was important during the study.
The study was conducted mainly by questionnaires which were distributed to the members of the
staff in the procurement department who were required to give their views. Direct interviews and
observation was also paramount in establishing the findings. The findings showed that the level
of ethical decision making in Kipkelion district was very high but its impact on moral
development was not greatly felt. Rewarding employees, provision of guidelines and peer
support were the main strategies for enhancing moral development.
