“…In an exploratory study, Carter et al (2004) find that electronic reverse auctions (e-RAs) increase productivity and reduce cycle times for buyers, particularly in the case of repeated auctions. Many scholars observe these success stories with skepticism, and are reluctant to interpret them as general results (Presutti, 2003;Brun, Corti & Cozzini, 2007). Information and communication technologies do not generate efficiency by themselves.…”

Scientific literature reports scarce evidence of whether Internetbased procurement systems improve the efficiency of State purchases. We propose a methodology to estimate savings in: (i) the centralization of administrative tasks, and (ii) price differentials due to a larger number of contractors and suppliers bidding on contracts. We test our methods with ChileCompra, the Chilean e-procurement agency. During 2007, 885 Chilean State agencies used this system to purchase US$4.5 billion in products and services. Our preliminary results show price reductions of 2.65% and administrative cost savings of 0.28%-0.38% between 2006 and 2007.3) Reduce administrative cost by improving the procurement process; and ----------------------------

“…The integration of Internet in e-procurement led recently to important developments and the openness of the technique to a largest set of firms [11] [52]. Many scholars have demonstrated the impacts of the use of the e-procurement technology [7][17] [55]. Eprocurement has turned the formerly traditional purchasing function into a competitive weapon [13] [21][51] [53].…”

“…Finally, it improves the productivity since internal customers can obtain the items they want from a catalogue of approved items through an online requisition and ordering system. Hence, procurement staff can be released from processing orders and handling low value transactions to concentrate on strategic sourcing and improving supplier relationships [7][17].…”

E-procurement systems allow governments to efficiently management their contracts by improving interactions with suppliers, and by increasing transparency. Governments generally choose their suppliers based on the minimum price. However, other criteria than price may be considered to help governments choose the best suppliers. This paper proposes a formal reputation model that is intended to determine the winners of an eprocurement process. The proposed model combines three elements: (1) the direct reputation of the supplier, (2) the indirect reputation of the supplier, and (3) the difference in beliefs between the government and the supplier. Using a multi-agent approach, the proposed model compares between situations where reputation is integrated along price for selecting suppliers and when it is not. Results show that the proposed reputation model may lead to lower costs.

“…Since Activity-Based Costing (ABC) allocates the organization's resources to activities, it is a natural tool for assessing the expected savings due to BPR and in particular due to e-commerce (Tatsiopoulos et al, 2002). For instance, Brun et al (2007) identify five phases in the procurement process: Order request, Order acceptance, Order emission, Order receipt and Invoices fulfill. For each phase, they define a set of activities and E-mail: shakeel.mahmood@gmail.com.…”

Since the adoption of privatization as an economic policy reform in 1976, public procurement by contractual means in Bangladesh has been increasing day by day. Objective of this paper is to discuss the e-Government Procurement implementation and recommends measures to be adopted in public procurement system in Bangladesh. Study methodology included bibliometric analysis, literature and archival document review and key informant interviews. The World Banks evaluation of Bangladesh concluded that the implementation of procurement process is far from satisfactory. Implementation of e-Government Procurement will supplement the present government's vision for building a Digital Bangladesh by 2021. The idea of a virtual bidding process could save more than 15% of the government's procurement costs, according to a World Bank study and it becomes easier to eradicate corruptions from the country. As the country marching forward for "Digital Bangladesh", introducing the system of submitting the tender over internet (like other developing and developed countries) is a very positive step.
