This study was conducted to assess the prospects and challenges of procurement performance measurement in selected technical universities in Ghana. The study employed exploratory and descriptive research designs and non-probability sampling techniques to select 120 participants. Primary data were gathered using a structured questionnaire. The study found all technical universities periodically assess procurement contribution to the university’s performance as a metric of measuring procurement performance. Majority of the employees consider the performance measuring metric is important. Also, quality of purchase is considered in procurement performance measuring metrics as important. The technical university uses response time to user demand, supplier lead times, compliance to university’s procurement guidelines, and contributions of procurement to corporate competitiveness, supplier relations and customer satisfaction as a metric of measuring procurement performance. Concerning the prospects of measuring procurement performance, the study found that 93% of procurement officers agreed that procurement prospects enhance procurement efficiency. The majority 89% indicated that procurement prospects promote better procurement control processes. Regarding the challenges, study found that lack of relevant performance indicators, difficulties in measuring supplier lead times as this was affected by various factors, inability to account for the contribution of other functions in the procurement process e.g. users and finance, lack of transparency in the procurement process was a challenge faced when measuring procurement performance. The study concludes that there are adequate measures in place to assess procurement performance in technical universities in Ghana. The study recommends that management should ensure total compliance with the public procurement act to enhance procurement efficiency.

“…The first strength of the methodology adopted in this paper is the use of a quantitative and comprehensive approach in the study of public procurement efficiency. The majority of publications in this field are either theoretical 53 or case-based and partial, 54 which makes comparisons and rankings rather difficult, if not impossible. However, this also creates a limitation.…”

A New Approach to the Evaluation of Public Procurement Efficiency among European Countries

Public procurements have been high on the agenda of policy makers, decision makers, scholars, and other interested parties in Europe in the last few decades, as such procurements make up nearly one-fifth of Europe’s total gross domestic product. Nevertheless, not many attempts have been made to measure the efficiency of public procurement systems and accordingly rank European countries. The most important measurement that highlights this issue is the Single Market Scoreboard for Public Procurements. However, this scoreboard is subject to bias and numerous omissions, which significantly decreases its operational usage and deteriorates the real efficiency of public procurements. This article aims to rank European countries in an unambiguous, objective, and impartial manner by using the Composite I-distance Indicator (CIDI) methodology. Instead of using biased weights for individual indicators, assigned by experts, the CIDI method creates new weights in an objective manner. The study analysed 30 European countries. The results of the study are, to some extent, different from current practice for public procurement efficiency measurement. The novel approach to ranking provides an opportunity to interested parties to improve the performance of their public procurements by reviewing them on a multidimensional basis.

Being a prerequisite for the further development of the procurement system, digitalization completely changes the purchasing function and affects its effectiveness through various factors, the main of which are quality and savings, risk minimization, and speed increase. In short, all of the above allows to achieve leading position and prominent standing. Moreover, through using digital technologies it is possible to identify those places in the supply chain where failures are associated with the factors highlighted in this study, eliminate them, and in the future predict in advance and minimize the occurrence of a repeated situation. In addition, the use of technology leads to the necessity of a new efficiency system with new key performance indicators. In the future, collecting information on key indicators allows to build an econometric model for evaluating the effectiveness of the procurement system as a whole, taking into account the use of digital technologies, which will be relevant for state and municipal procurement bodies.
