A Measurement Device for Estimating Local Firm Capabilities in New Oil Producing Countries: The Case of Uganda

In this paper we present an overview of KAPSARC’s local content project, its methodological approach and objective. We describe a measurement device (questionnaire) used to quantify different features of local firms surveyed in Uganda. The data collected in these questionnaires provides essential information to help analyze the current state of local firms in Uganda as they gear up to join the oil and gas supply chain. We also comment on each section of the form explaining its purpose.
