Traditional procurement, e-procurement, definitions, tools, benefitsAbstract
The main aim of this paper is to contribute to our understanding of traditional procurement and electronic
procurement process. Through the study of the literature, this paper concentrates on the traditional procurement and
e-procurement from the perspectives of its definitions, tools and benefits. Considering the apparent shift from
traditional procurement to an electronic procurement environment, public and private sector agencies worldwide can
improve their procurement process, with the use of Internet-based technologies to procure goods and service. As
stated by Neef (2001), if there is one sector in the economy where e-procurement can and will have an enormous
effect, it is in the government. Thus, this paper makes a significant contribution to e-procurement field in rural areas
development studies and research.
