Abstract
This study aims to determine the level of participation of Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) in the procurement of construction work in West Papua Province in accordance with Presidential Regulation Number 12 of 2021. In the new regulation, the government sets aside an allocation of 40 % of the spending budget for MSEs and Cooprative products and increase the value limit of procurement project specifically for MSEs up to IDR 15,000,000,000 (fifteen billion rupiah). West Papua also has received special attention from the government with the allocation of the Special Autonomy Fund in State Budget. The research was conducted by testing the difference on the average number of bidders for construction work with small qualifications before and after the implementation of the policy. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the average number of bidders before and after the implementation of the policy. However, the descriptive data shows that after the implementation of the new policy, there are new players who have joined the construction auction market, although on the other hand there are also supplier who no longer participate. The results of the study are hoped to provide input regarding the effectiveness of the implementation of Presidential Regulation Number 12 of 2021. However, this research still has limitations in terms of the research sample only includes auctions for construction work in the West Papua Provincial Government and use only one variable, namely the level of participation.
