Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 41-44). This thesis investigates the effects of implementing Electronic Government Procurement (e GP) on the procurement practices at Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS). A mixed methods approach combining interviews, surveys and quantitative analysis of process data is utilized. The study finds e-GP adoption has significantly enhanced efficiency, transparency, competitiveness, and overall procurement efficacy at BBS. Average tender cycle time reduced by 7 days and costs lowered by BDT 13 lakhs, representing major quantitative gains. Over 70% of staff acknowledged benefits like increased transparency, times savings, faster completion, expanded competition and lowered administrative burdens. However, barriers like inadequate skills, training gaps and inability to apply e-GP for service procurement persist, inhibiting optimal utilization. Addressing these via capability enhancement programs, mandatory e-GP policies and continuous system refinements can help consolidate the gains. Overall, the research validates existing theoretical conceptions on the transformational potential of technology-led procurement reforms and localizes these to the understudied context of statistical agencies in developing countries.
