Successful completion of projects in the construction industry remains a difficult task at all levels. However, the members involved in the construction team are sometimes constrained because the projects are influenced by several factors that differ, which range from internal to external factors. This study evaluated the delays in upgrading of health centers from level II to III in Bunyoro Sub-Region a Government of Uganda project. Quantitative approach with descriptive and correlational research designs were adopted in this research paper. Data was collected from 99 respondents using a questionnaire and a check list, whereas sampling was both purposive and snow ball.A high level ofcontract planning and procurement standards with aggregate mean 3.17 suggested that contract Pan 1.83 and contract monitoring and procurement standards with aggregate mean 2.15 indicted a low level of performance. This study found out a weak positive relationship between construction management practices and procurement standards in the upgrade of health centers by Ministry of Health in Bunyoro sub region with (r = 0.489, p = 0.0000 ? 0.05). The findings suggested that when construction management practices contract planning, implementation and monitoring are put in place, procurement standards will improve. This further suggests that procurement standards should be followed to the latter to ensure effectiveness, efficiency and environmental standards are achieved.
