Abstract

Procurement is a process of obtaining supplies, materials, services and other resources. Public procurement refers to the entities governed by departments, bureaus, government branches and instrumentalities. This paper focused to evaluate the efficacy of the procurement process of the Department of Agriculture RFO VII: Alternative Mode of Procurement. The study made use of the mixed method through survey as means of data collection. The descriptive survey method using a survey questionnaire was utilized to investigate the degree of effectiveness in terms of resource, procedure and budget utilization, level of awareness of the procurement official on the protocol and problems affecting the process. The study found out that DA RFO VII has many things to consider with regards to the enhancement of the procurement activity. There were deficiencies in the operational requirements, procurement procedures and measures to enhance the budget utilization that resulted to the challenges which hampered the agency from achieving a streamlined process.
