Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the level of strategic procurement adoption by East African businesses. Methods: Both primary and secondary data were employed in the investigation. Secondary data from study proposals, the internet, journals, and books were combined with primary data using a semi-structured questionnaire to collect data. Correctly completed questionnaires were coded, and descriptive statistics were used to evaluate the data after entering it into a social sciences statistical tool. Results: The study found that strategic procurement improves the performance of public companies by lowering costs and raising the caliber of the organization's products and services. Conclusion: Corruption and a lack of coordination during implementation are significant barriers to strategic procurement impact on East Africa public enterprise performance. Recommendation: The study recommend strategic procurement to be viewed as crucial to the success of a business. To plan the future of the procurement function, organizations should make sure they have qualified personnel in both strategic management and procurement.
