Determinants of e-procurement adoption by institutions in Kenya and Tanzania during Covid-19 era
Abstract
Electronic procurement (E-procurement) is one of the rapidly expanding digital form of procurement in both public and private institutions in Kenya and Tanzania. E-procurement is used by most public and private institutions to strengthen buyer-supplier relationships, cut transaction costs, eliminate maverick purchases, increase organizational coordination, and supply chain performance. It is perceived that most of the business operations were automated during the COVID-19 era to minimize the spread of novel corona virus. Therefore, this study intended to do a thorough empirical literature review on the determinants of E-procurement adoption in Kenyan and Tanzanian institutions during the COVID-19 era.
