Alsamarraie, M M and Ghazali, F (2023) Evaluation of organizational procurement performance for public construction projects: Systematic review. International Journal of Construction Management, 23(14), pp. 2499-2508. ISSN 1562-3599
Abstract
Construction is an essential contributor for both developed and developing economies. Corruption, schedule delays, cost overruns, and erratic project performance are common few problems that face the conventional procurement process of any organization. This research focused on the weakness of current procurement practices in public construction projects in Iraq, as stated by the World Bank and Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) reports. The methodology of this study was to collect data by conducting a thorough systematic search of existing literature. The authors used QDA Miner 4 software for coding and thematic categorization. The study found 42 variables from previous studies, and the authors distributed these variables into 12 thematic divisions representing the organization's key performance indicators (KPIs). The authors conclude that these indicators are important to introduce many frameworks for the integration of procurement process in developing countries. For future studies, there is a possibility to introduce an integrated construction and design framework to enhance organizational performance and the procurement process.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
