Background of the Study
Government contracts are an important part of public sector financial management, involving large sums of money and requiring strict oversight to ensure transparency and accountability. The implementation of Accounting Information Systems (AIS) can enhance the management of government contracts by providing accurate tracking of expenses, payments, and contract terms. This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of AIS in managing government contracts in Daura Local Government Area (LGA).

The adoption of AIS could potentially improve the tracking and management of contracts, leading to better accountability and decision-making. However, challenges such as resistance to technological change, inadequate training, and infrastructure limitations may affect the successful implementation of AIS. This study seeks to explore the effectiveness of AIS in managing government contracts in Daura LGA.
