Background of the Study
Effective procurement performance measurement (PPM) is essential for organizations to optimize their supply chain and achieve strategic goals. PPM techniques provide insights into the efficiency and effectiveness of procurement activities, helping organizations control costs, improve supplier relationships, and enhance operational performance (Ogundele & Akinyemi, 2023).
PZ Cussons Nigeria, a multinational company with operations in Kebbi State, relies heavily on robust procurement systems for sourcing raw materials and maintaining production efficiency. Despite the availability of various PPM techniques, the organization faces challenges in applying these methods to achieve desired outcomes, especially in a dynamic and competitive market environment (Yusuf & Suleiman, 2024).
Statement of the Problem
Procurement inefficiencies often lead to higher costs, delayed production, and suboptimal supplier relationships. For PZ Cussons Nigeria, the inability to effectively measure procurement performance using appropriate techniques has led to challenges in achieving strategic objectives in Kebbi State. While various PPM techniques are available, their adoption and impact on procurement outcomes in this context remain underexplored (Abiola & Eze, 2023). This study aims to bridge this gap by reviewing PPM techniques and their effectiveness.
