Both primary and secondary data are used. The finding of the study reveals that the procurement department has its own procedure but it is not well practiced in accordance with stated principles. The finding reveals that ill planning, delaying and unplanned purchasing are the challenge that affected the practice and procedure of the procurement processes Besides this, even if the department performed well in the area of purchasing based on specification with the right quantity and price, the department poor performance is shown in the area of procuring with the right quality and time.
