This book was released on 2021 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract Mozambique is characterized by a significant diversity of mineral resources such as coal, graphite, gold, oil, gas, among others. The potential of the Mozambican economy brings large investments from foreign companies interested in implement mega projects. As such, Mozambique attracted in the last 20 years companies like Vale and Rio Tinto for coal reserves, Eni, and Anadarko for hydrocarbon sector, and Exxon Mobil for oil and gas reserves. Although, the implementation of these projects needs to take in account the direct impact and side effects on the economy and the influence of the huge demand from the projects on the local capacity, to ensure that in the long term the local business can partner with the mining industry, through different channels such as strategic alliances. This is to guarantee that local industries can be part inclusive of the transformational framework in the mining sector. This study aims to look at the local economic framework and current constrains in the development of Local Content (LC). The analysis will include the discrepancies in the concept, and it will examine different perspectives where the economy can benefit from the inclusive approach in the supply chain. A specific analysis will address the institutional framework and governance intervention for the enhancement of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) capability in the supply processes through E-procurement from Multinationals Enterprises (MNEs). Alternatives to the current intensive awarding of foreign suppliers will be discussed. A survey to SMEs will be evaluated to gather the main limitations from the local business to develop long-term strategies towards a promotion of the local industry. Key words: supply chain management, small and medium enterprises, multinational companies, e-procurement, mineral resources.

Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, Institute of Accountancy Arusha, course: Supply Chain Management, language: English, abstract: This study is about the challenges of adoption of e-procurement in a private bank in Tanzania, specifically at CRDB bank Plc, Dar es Salaam. The specific objectives were to find out if the procurement officers have necessary skills to facilitate the use of e-procurement, to examine the extent of availability of technological infrastructure to support e-procurement and to identify challenges facing CRDB bank in adopting e-procurement. The research design used was case study and a sample of 20 respondents was used. Data were collected using questionnaire and interview. The analysis of findings was done using descriptive statistics and narrative notes whereby tables and charts were used. Findings of the study showed that CRDB bank has started to procure online recently and for now it partially procures online. IT infrastructure in the bank strongly supports the adoption of e-procurement. Nevertheless, e-procurement has been seen as strategically important and it is driven by management. The bank personnel have the skills needed to cope with the changes. Conclusively, the study shows that the adoption of e-procurement in private sectors particularly in CRDB bank is feasible. The important thing is for the organizations and their managements to take initiatives on how to improve the facilitation of e-procurement. Furthermore, the researcher recommends that managements should make a cost benefit analysis on e-procurement, improve their technological infrastructure, organize trainings for staffs and improve the networks and systems in order to make e-procurement a success.
