| Abstract | Procurement management is a significant issue in construction organizations, particularly for electrical projects which deal with numerous parties. It is full range of activities related to purchasing goods, services and works. Viet Nam Electricity has invested a lot of human and financial resources to increase his ability of supplying electric power for the great progress of economy and social development of Viet Nam in recent years. However, there are many problems of the project performance caused from procurement processes such as project delays, cost overruns, low quality, and disputes between parties. Objective - The objective of this study are (I) to identify the factors effecting procurement performance in EVN's power transmission line projects; (2) to develop a regression model this can be used to quantify the importance rank of the factors; and (3) to improve the effectiveness of project procurement performance. Method - The methodology of the study used is quantitative method. Most of data used in this study was collected from historical data and interviewing experts from NPPMB and NPT - the government office in Viet Nam Electricity and suppliers who participated in NPPMB procurement perfo1mance. To find out which independent variables have most significant effectiveness to procurement performance, the package for social science software (SPSS) was used. From the frequency statistic, con-elation, and regression analyzed results, the time, cost, and quality models were developed to predict procurement perfo1mance. Finding - The results of this study on the time cotTelation analyses indicated that owner experience is the most importance factor effecting to the time measurement of procurement performance. It is similar to cost correlation analyses, level of package complexity and consultant experience are the most importance factors effecting to cost measurement of procurement performance. The results on quality correlation indicated that supplier's quality control and management capacity is the most importance factor effecting to the quality measurement of procurement perfonnance. The researcher also suggests some opinions to improve the effectiveness of procurement management. Owner should increase their experience by develop their knowledge on project management, ability to contribute and lead to the further development of the project performance, able to manage all respects of procurement from business case to delivery of the goods, ability to solve difficulties through negotiation, leading to improvement. Consultant should improve the capabilities on expert knowledge of technical paits, ensure covered scope of work, leading to improvement and upgrading new technologies into construction implementation. The Supplier by himself should improve their quality control and management capabilities, skilled and experienced in contract implementation, innovation and continuous improvement pers01mel management and capacity. |
