Book excerpt: E-GP (Electronic Government Procurement) has been adopted as a government strategy to offer effective public procurement in light of the many problems associated with executing the public procurement system. E-Procurement was designed to make the procurement process more efficient, effective, and cost-effective and minimize corruption. The main purpose of this study was to determine the critical success factors in implementing e-government procurement for public sector organizations in Sri Lanka and to determine the critical success factors in implementing e government procurement for public sector organizations in Sri Lanka. A cross-sectional questionnaire-based survey was used to collect data and the study population was comprised of procurement divisions in Departments, State Managed Boards, Authorities, Commissions, Corporations, Bureaus, Institutes and Institutions and Government Banks. The sample of 162 organizations were selected as key respondents-based convenience and random sampling methods. Quantitative research approached was used in this study to discover the factors that influence the implementation of e-procurement. The findings of the multiple regression analysis showed there is a significant positive relationship between dependent variable (E-GP implementation) and four independent variables (Technology Infrastructure, Network Application, Human Capacity and Awareness and Supply Readiness).

Book excerpt: Twenty-first century has seen the migration of many governance functions and services to the Internet. The terms like e-governance and m-governance are no longer unfamiliar words but are a political reality. The adoption of e-procurement by government entities to optimize and economize public procurements has been the buzzword of transparent governance. In fact, e-procurement has been touted as the panacea for issues like corruption and bureaucratic red-tapism. Literature is replete with studies which underline numerous benefits of migration of procurement functions to the Internet. However, e-Government Procurement (e-GP) has not taken off in India, though it is an integrated mission mode project as a part of the National e-Governance Project (NeGP) launched by the Government of India in 2006. A recent review of the e-procurement implementation by the Government of India brought out that the progress of e-procurement project implementation has been dismal. Against this backdrop, the study aims to identify the Critical Success Factors (CSF) for e-procurement project implementation. The research methodology followed included a detailed analysis of e-procurement CSFs reported in research literature and qualitative study of a few successful e-procurement implementations in India. The study concludes that the existing CSFs and their study models do not take the cultural and project context dimensions into account. Therefore, the existing body of knowledge does not aid managerial decision making. Finally, the paper brings out research gaps and suggests directions for future research.

Book excerpt: The Air Force currently funds projects chartered with studying and developing e-Procurement systems. Through review and analysis of various e- Procurement projects, factors attributing to successful implementation of e- Procurement systems will be deduced and provided as a useful guide for federal agencies initiating e-Procurement projects. By identifying critical success factors this research should: 1) improve preimplementation planning, 2) improve spend decisions, and 3) decrease implementation time by eliminating unnecessary steps. This research utilized the current literature to identify specific factors important in the e-Procurement implementation process. Once the factors were determined, a survey was developed to measure the factors in organizations with an e-Procurement system. All fifty state governments were contacted to determined if they had implemented e-Procurement systems and, if they responded affirmatively, were surveyed regarding what they have identified as the factors most instrumental in their e-Procurement implementation. The survey looked specifically at six key areas of e-Procurement implementation: 1) technology, 2) management, 3) processes, 4) suppliers, 5) budget, and 6) benefits. Each organization's tangible and intangible benefits were assessed to further substantiate the value organizations should be getting from e-Procurement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The benefits of e-procurement implementation for public procurement is a well research area. The adoption of e-procurement results in cost savings to exchequer by increasing operational efficiency, transparency, competition among bidders and organizational effectiveness through automation of manual processes. The review of contemporary research literature brings out procurement process engineering, change management and top management support as some of the critical success factors for e-procurement project implementation. It is also well known that NeGP project was launched in 2006 with e-Procurement as integrated Mission Mode Project. A recent review of the e-procurement implementation by DIT, Ministry of Commn & IT brought out that the progress in this area has been dismal. Barring few states like Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh etc, the project has not taken off. This lack of progress (when seen in the light of rampant corruption in India) becomes a cause of serious concern. In this backdrop we undertook study of various statues, rules and government order governing public procurement in India. In order to develop better understanding of the research domain we undertook template analysis of successful e-procurement implementation by State Governments of Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. In addition, we interacted with some of the stakeholders to elicit their views on how a legal framework could help in smoother and faster roll out of e-procurement projects in public sector. The research methodology followed included analysis based on an elaborate study of various government policies and guidelines and their impact. Fact findings are provided through journal articles, information hosted on government portals, statues, rules, regulations and government resolutions relating to e-procurement and government purchasing. The study concludes that since “Procurement” doesn't figure in either State List or in Concurrent List, therefore Indian Parliament can make law on the subject for the entire country. However, no separate law governing public procurement has been enacted in India. Finally, the paper brings out broad contours of a modal procurement law that would expedite the e-procurement implementation in India in an optimal manner.
Download or read book E government Failure and an E procurement Initiative written by Firman Trisasongko Cholil and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICT has a significant impact on many aspects of life. It triggers government to transform its paradigm into e-Government in order to provide better business process externally and internally. Despite the potentials, opportunities and benefits yielded from e-Government development, many implementations have experienced failure, especially in developing countries. Failure costs are high; therefore, understanding the factors of e-Government success and failure are very important. One of these egovernment initiatives in the Indonesia context is e-Procurement. This program has evolved successfully embracing all barriers and challenges. This thesis aimed to investigate two areas. Firstly, it seeks to understand critical barriers/challenges that influence the success and failure of an e-Government implementation. Secondly, it attempts to evaluate the critical success factors that influenced e-Procurement initiative. Employing a qualitative interpretive method, this study explored the perceptions of 9 interviewees across 4 ministries within the Indonesian central government. The interviews were analyzed using a content analysis tool, and mixture of frameworks. It extracted their wisdom about e-government, and explored their views of eprocurement. By realizing the complexity of e-Government, this thesis considers multiple factors to be analyzed to get more comprehensive insight. The result of such analysis draws clear insights into the challenge factors faced by egovernment, and the success factors found in the e-procurement implementations in the Indonesian context. Its findings indicated that there are four inter-dependent aspects that determine success and failure of e-Government implementation. These aspects also imply the critical success factors of e-Procurement.

Download or read book Successful Use of Eprocurement in Supply Chains written by Rainer Alt and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose - Electronic support of internal supply chains for direct or production goods has been a major element during the implementation of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that has taken place since the late 1980s. However, supply chains to indirect material suppliers were not usually included due to low transaction volumes, low product values and low strategic importance of these goods. Dedicated information systems for streamlining indirect goods supply chains have emerged since the late 1990s and subsequently have faced a broad diffusion in practice. The concept of these e-procurement solutions has also been described broadly in the literature. However, studies on how companies use these e-procurement solutions and what factors are critical to their implementation are only emerging. This research aims to explore the introduction of e-procurement systems and their contribution to the management of indirect goods supply chain.Design/Methodology/Approach - Chooses a two-part qualitative approach. First, summarizes the results of a benchmarking study that was conducted by a consortium of 12 multinational companies. During the benchmarking process 120 questionnaires were distributed, ten phone-based interviews were conducted, and finally five successful practice companies were selected and analyzed in detail. Second, draws together the success factors identified in the benchmarking study and maps them against the successful practice companies.Findings - Although e-procurement has substantially streamlined the procurement and coordination processes for indirect goods, many companies operate multiple e-procurement solutions. For integrated procurement solutions, the paper recognizes the need of an overall procurement strategy and organization, an alignment of various e-procurement solutions along the procurement process and the need for integrated system architectures. Companies also have to realize that a no standardized e-procurement solutions exists and that important success factors are “non-technical” in nature.Originality/Value - This paper presents a first step towards a systematic analysis of factors that may guide companies in the implementation of e-procurement solutions. Besides providing a direct contribution to the project work in companies it may stimulate further research in e-procurement success factors.
