dc.description.abstract | The study was aimed at evaluating the compliance on the Management of Movable Assets and Application of Supply Chain Policies in the Depatment of Human Settlements, KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Government. Since managing of movable assets is a challenge in most governemnt as well as private sectors, this kind of research has never been conducted in the Department of Human Settlements, in the Province of KwaZulu-Natal. It was obvious that movable asset management is definitely a subject that needs attention. A critical review of related literature, as well as varying methods of data collection were undertaken and relevant theories were explored. Theories covered in this research are the Transaction Cost Economics Theory, Agency Theory as well as the Resource-Based View Theory. These theories, combined, help justify the thesis of this research.This contextual study broadens the possiblities of application in Supply Chain Management, especially in the movable assests section. The main finding of the study strengthened the dispute that non-compliance in safeguarding movable assets by end users is the most critical part in the management of the departmental movable assets. The department still has to improve control measures in safeguarding movable assets, compliance with movable assets management principles, guidelines and working conditions. | en_US |
