The study assessed the factors affecting implementation of e-procurement in public sector of Ghana using mmda’s in central region. Specifically, it identified the factors affecting the implementation of e-procurement in mmdas in central region. It also assessed the effects of e-procurement implementation in ensuring value for money within the mmdas in central region. Descriptive research was adopted and qualitative methodology was used to retrieve primary data through questionnaires administration from managers and directors within the mmdas in central region. The study found the factors affecting the implementation of e-procurement to include cost of implementation, management commitment and employee’s competence. The study identified effects of e-procurement implementation as enabling effectiveness and improvement in procurement processes as well as quality and efficiency. The study established the need for staff competency and management support in the implementation of e-procurement and to enhance better the performance. The study recommended That there should be provision of funds to acquire equipment such as computers and automated machines to undertake e-procurement. There should also be hiring of personnel that possess technical skills and knowledge as may be necessary to undertake e-procurement. Senior managers of the organizations should also be committed to e-procurement as that will lead to the attainment of objectives. 2024-01-15T09:23:54Z 2024-01-15T09:23:54Z 2023 Thesis https://ir.knust.edu.gh/handle/123456789/15136 en application/pdf KNUST |
