Abstract:
The industrial sector is experiencing a tough economic situation because of many factors such as; the lack of basic resources necessary for operating these industries, achieving a level of product which is necessary for continuing work in these industries, the unavailability of enough fund for them, the lack of experiences and technical skills of workers and managers, unavailability of modern technology such as machinery, equipments, parts...etc. These factors have led to many enterprises to stop production or to operate with a minimal production capacity, which requires reforms through searching for reasonable solutions. This has led to state officials to think of ways for restoring activities of these enterprises. Transferring the asset of these public enterprises to private sector could be one of the ways of restoring activities, as it is regarded one of the contemporary methods of economic reform.It is worth to mention that there are many methods of privatization, or transferring to private sector, such as, asset sale (ownership transfer), management contracts, share ownerships, leasing contracts ...etc. Leasing is considered one of the methods of privatization which has been adopted to overcome the financial, technical, organizational and marketing difficulties which are facing public sector enterprises.This kind of privatization experience has not been formerly evaluated by assessing its success was one of the research problems faced the author. This is an important piece of study because it assesses the level of success of leasing industrial enterprises from public to private sector, the study is also highlights the difficulties and weak points so they can be avoided in the future and also to strengthening its strong points. However, the main aims and objectives of this study is to explain the following : 1 - Concepts and importance of leasing public enterprises to private sector and its impact on the national economic growth.2 - Evaluating this experience in Kurdistan Region and showing its success or failure of generating reasonable revenue for the state, and to achieve other social objectives.Research hypothesis : 1 - Adopting contract lease method based on specific standards will lead to restructuring production lines in these enterprises; it will also lead to secure needs necessary for operating them, which will then achieve the objectives of these enterprises.2 - Using the indices of performance Efficiency in assessing this leasing experience will lead to an outcome which can assess the success or failures of this leasing experience.Due to the importance of this study and also its objectives and hypothesis, the author has adopted a deductive approach in the theoretical side which depends on scientific sources and literatures related to the topic. However for the practical side of the research which applies to the current industrial enterprises in Iraq, a sample of these enterprises has been used (Tasluja Cement Factory) which has been leased to a partnership company (local and foreign) for 12 years. The production activity before and after the lease has been used as a measure; the results have been discussed and analyzed.The author's findings from both theoretical and practical aspects have proved research's hypothesis of that leasing contracts have provided an opportunity of restructuring the strategic industrial enterprises, which the state is not interested to transfer their ownership and they require huge fund for restructuring and increasing efficiency and best exploiting capacities. In addition to that, the process of evaluating the performance through efficiency, capability, economy and other important indices will contribute to identify the differences and find effective solutions by using research findings to review plans and implementing policies. The research shows that there are huge differences of production before and after the lease contract, for example, the decrease of the actual production capacity compared to the projected production, the actual production capacity had not exceeded (%12) of the projected capacity, which means that (88%) of the production capacity was not exploited, this is a huge loss of money and resources. However, and after the lease contract the actual production capacity has reached (99.9%). This shows the capability of the private sector of restructuring the factory and best exploiting of the resources and not losing available resources.Research recommendations : 1 - Reviewing legislations related to investment in particular foreign investment, the lease contract legislations should include punishment conditions which force the leased company to preserve the assets of the establishment.2 - Continuing evaluation of performance is important in all aspects which will have an impact in activating work and identifying strong and weak points and knowing the reasons behind them and finding solutions in one hand and to provide data for service users and the decision makers in another hand.3 - Finally, after examining the sample from all positive and negative aspects, the author is recommending that the experience should be transferred to other non - functioning public factories and enterprises through lease contracts, after taking into consideration all points for restructuring the infrastructure of These Companies.
