dc.description.abstract | Project procurement management is among the ten knowledge areas that a project manager must be familiar with for a successful implementation of a project work. Depending upon the specific type of project being managed, over 50 percent of the total project cost can be attributed to parts, supplies and services procured. For many high-technology projects, this procurement fraction can approach 90 percent. Most of the world telecom operators upgrade their procurement capabilities to achieve best suppliers relation, to bring improved risk management, and to enhance fast growth opportunities. Hence, this study is targeted to assess project procurement practice of Ethio Telecom by addressing the process undergone namely: Procurement planning, Solicitation Planning, Solicitation, Source Selection, Contract Administration and Contract Closeout. The primary data was collected from a total of 60 respondents from a total population of 198 out of which 15 was approached for answering questions related to planning procurement process and the rest 45 are approached for answering the remaining process which are selected using nonprobability purposive sampling and the collected data analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Then the data presented quantitatively using descriptive statistics with the help of table, frequency and percentage. Semi-structured interview was also conducted with the 5 project managers and 4 Contract Management Program Managers, and analyzed qualitatively by integrating secondary data obtained from the company policy and procedure documents, project management working manual, reports, process templates and magazines. Accordingly, the finding of the study reveals the company fail to provide training related to project and project procurement, fail to arrange pre-proposal visit, not considering suppliers risk management issue as evaluation criteria, week monitoring system for products arrived at the project site and not gathering suppliers’ performance status report from concerned stakeholders.
