“…There is a growing literature focused on the implementation of government electronic procurement platforms (Moon, 2005;Fernandes, 2005;Menezes, Silva and Linhares, 2007;Doherty, McConnell and Ellis-Chadwick, 2013), and their impacts (Croom and Brandon-Jones, 2007;Faria et al, 2010a). However, little is known on the implications of electronic procurement on bidders' behavior and on ex-post indicators of public procurement performance (Freitas and Maldonado, 2013;Reis and Cabral, 2015).…”

Resumo Estudos sobre a efetividade das compras públicas frequentemente enfatizam o preço de aquisição. Pouco se sabe, contudo, sobre outras dimensões de desempenho das contratações realizadas pelo governo, incluindo as relações de interdependência entre custo de aquisição e qualidade. Usando a celeridade na entrega como dimensão alternativa de desempenho, este estudo investigou quais são os mecanismos que ajudam a compreender a redução dos preços contratados e dos prazos de entrega dos objetos adquiridos por meio de compras públicas eletrônicas, bem como a influência da economia obtida na fase de licitação sobre a celeridade da entrega. Analisando uma base de dados única, com informações detalhadas de 3.755 processos de compras realizadas por um órgão do governo federal, constatou-se que, embora as licitações eletrônicas sejam eficazes para reduzir preços contratados nos certames de intensa competição, não há relação significativa entre o acirramento da concorrência entre os participantes e a celeridade na entrega. Ademais, os resultados indicam que fornecedores com histórico de desempenho insatisfatório são exatamente aqueles que continuam comprometendo o resultado das compras públicas.

This paper aims to explore the challenges of e-procurement implementation and how to overcome these challenges in infrastructure project of Ministry of Public Work and Housing. This study used secondary data analysis such as blue print, activity report, performance report and financial report. The data were collected on January 2018. The findings show that there are two key challenges of eprocurement implementation. Challenges in system specification are not only related to software integration and data management, but also legal and administration procedures and IT infrastructure. Challenges in implementation management are related to roll-out strategy and IT skills. However, there is no issue in IT outsourcing. Findings also show that there are impacts of eprocurement implementation on total cost of acquisition, organizational characteristics, and governance structure. Challenges can be overcome by establishing integrated e-procurement system and centralized database.

“…Governments are not only interested in reduction of costs through E-procurement but also by the availability of better information which helps meet legal requirements and improve transparency, quality of services and compliance (Leipold, et al, 2009). However, the implementation of E-procurement does have drawbacks ; they include the cost of implementation, the difficulty in procuring technically complicated items (Doherty, et al, 2013), the difficulties in managing the integration with the suppliers, resistance to change and lack of uptake by users as well as poor support from top management (Vaidya, et al, 2006). Other drawbacks that are present for E-procurement in the context of public procurement are the legal requirements or strategic priorities of public organization that want to promote a specific market activity.…”
