| dc.description.abstract | The study's title is "The Impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic on Procurement Performance: The Case of Islamic Relief Ethiopia," and its primary goal is to look at the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Islamic Relief Ethiopia's procurement performance. The explicit objectives were to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on procurement performance and to examine the major components affecting procurement performance based on four performance functions: Responsiveness, Flexibility, Quality, Cost-effectiveness and Time . In addition, other elements affecting procurement success were investigated, including Resources, Price inflation, and Experts. The researcher employed quantitative methodology and a descriptive and explanatory study design to attain the goal and investigate the functions. A census survey was used to develop the population of the study in question due to the small size of the target population. According to HR data for 2021, there are 130 employees. Based on this, 130 questionnaires were distributed to Islamic Relief Ethiopia staff, ranging from lower-level employees to the management team's top level. As a result, 119 functional questionnaires were collected, with a response rate of 91.54 percent. The data acquired from the questionnaire were analyzed using descriptive data analysis with SPSS. During the COVID-19 Pandemic, the study discovered that Islamic Relief Ethiopia’s procurement performance was inadequate in the areas of responsiveness, quality, and cost-effectiveness. The study also discovered that resource constraints, price inflation, and a lack of experts all had a significant impact on procurement performance during the COVID-19 Pandemic. To this end, Islamic Relief Ethiopia's procurement performance was at an all-time low during the COVID-19 Pandemic, and it should prepare for future challenges by designing various copping-up mechanisms that facilitate procurement processes efficiently and effectively whenever unexpected global disasters such as the COVID-19 Pandemic occur. Key Words: Procurement performance, COVID-19 Pandemic, Responsiveness, Flexibility, Quality, Cost and Humanitarian Relief Organizations. . . | |
