Identifying The Most Prevalent Obstacles To E-Tendering Implementation: A Global Perspective
Abstract
The construction industry has traditionally relied on manual, paper-based tendering processes, which are often time-consuming, opaque, and prone to inefficiencies. With the advent of digital technologies, e-tendering has emerged as a transformative tool within procurement, offering improved transparency, efficiency, and competitiveness. This study presents a definitive analysis of e-tendering within the construction sector, exploring its evolution, core functionalities, benefits, and challenges. Through a combination of literature review, case studies, and stakeholder interviews, the research examines how digital procurement platforms are reshaping the tendering landscape across various project types and organizational scales. Key findings reveal that while e-tendering significantly enhances process efficiency and reduces administrative overhead, its adoption is often hindered by technological, organizational, and regulatory barriers. The study also highlights the critical role of policy frameworks, user training, and digital infrastructure in ensuring successful implementation. By providing a comprehensive understanding of e-tendering systems, this research contributes valuable insights to construction professionals, policy makers, and technology developers aiming to leverage digital transformation for more effective procurement strategies.
