Abstract
This research aims to examine factors affecting public procurement performance in Ethiopia: the case of Public Procurement and Property Disposal Services. Based on literature reviews, the researcher identified four factors that affect the procurement performance. These includes: procurement planning, unethical practices, competency of staff, procurement procedure and Information Communication Technology on procurement. The hypothesis of the study was the procurement factors (independent variables) affect the procurement performance (dependent variable) of PPPDS. The research design is made based on descriptive and explanatory research approaches. The researcher distributed 116 questionnaires and 97 were filled and returned. Both primary and secondary data were used throughout this research. For primary data, both structured and semi structured type questionnaires were prepared. The results of this study indicate that the independent variables (Procurement Planning, Competency of Staff, Procurement Procedure and Information Communication Technology) positively affect the dependent variable (procurement performance) to a significant extent. These factors explain 85.9% of procurement performance, while the rest 14.1% is explained by other factors which are not subject of this study.
