Food procurement practices were assessed in 31 general hospital's dietetics in terms of the level of processing for purchased food. The level of processing before purchase by the institution was noted by a numerical value. a Food Processing Index (FPI). Labor productivity measured in terms of labor minutes per meal served averaged 12.59 minutes. Responsible persons for procurement practices were mostly dietitians, but effective purchasing methods as well as inventory control techniques were not fully systematized. Dietetic directors anticipate the large increase in the use of convenience foods in the future mainly due to the improved labor productivity, and also a highly increasing demand for completely pre-prepared food items (FPI 3). The grand mean of FPI scores for purchased foods in surveyed hospitals was 3.34, which indicates partially pre-prepared to completely pre-prepared food items. Significant negative correlation was found between the grand mean of FPI scores and the number of beds in a hospital.

Inadequate cost management has widely been recognized as one of the most problematic areas in the Korean construction industry as many believes that public cost references are not reasonably reflecting the market conditions. 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline' developed by Ministry of Economy and Finance(MOEF) to govern public budget control has been identified as one of the main reasons for this problem. This study attempts to thoroughly review 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline' itself and quantitatively analyze the impact of it on project cost during procurement process. Different procurement methods are considered including turnkey & alternative, private contract, qualification examination, and lowest price bidding system in this quantitative impact analysis of 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline'. Analysis results shows that this governmental process works mainly as a constant cost-cutting tool throughout the procurement process.

Various procurement systems for Architecture-Engineering service for public construction project are currently established by construction-related law. However, comprehensive framework and criteria for the selection of Architecture-Engineering firm are in absence. Even though various selection methods for Architecture-Engineering service are currently established by law, cost-based selection method is mainly used in selecting Architecture-Engineering firm for the service. This paper examined current use of procurement system for Architecture-Engineering service and drew problems in practice. Through analysis of problems and bench-marking of those systems in advanced countries and international organizations, several strategies to improve performance of Architecture-Engineering service and to maximize the efficiency were suggested. The suggestions include framework and guideline to select a procurement method for the service which is being considered for the project and way of improving current procurement system. These suggestions will be a foundation for utilizing appropriate procurement system for the specific project and can make domestic Architecture-Engineering firm more competitive in the global market by breaking form the cost-based selection method in the selection of Architecture-Engineering firms.

The research on the efficiency analysis of domestic auto parts companies is mostly based on the calculation of the magnitude of the performance creation such as the sales amount compared to the input assets. However, the performance indicators such as sales, operating profit, and net profit are directly related to the cost structure and This cost structure is affected by changes in the firm's asset and capital structure. As a result, it is considered that efficient capital procurement needs to be done at the same time to create efficient management performance through proper investment. This study focuses on this point and attempts to measure the efficiency of procurement capital relative to the sales and other performance indicators generated by the first 33 suppliers who supply parts to Hyundai Kia Motors. Among the methods of evaluating efficiency, the DEA model based on the linear programming method is most widely used as a nonparametric method but The efficient frontier-based DEA model has the limitation that it can not use the variables that have a downward influence on the efficiency. This is inadequate to directly consider variables such as borrowings and total liabilities related to capital procurement. In this study, the efficiency of capital procurement was measured using Worst Practice DEA and the improvement direction of the capital procurement aspect of domestic auto parts companies was suggested

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to analyse affecting factors of Test and Evaluation and to improve the institution of Test and Evaluation in the Domestic purchase program. Methods : The domestic acquisition program is currently small in terms of size, but it is gradually increasing every year. Still, the domestic purchase program has insufficient regulations and procedures compared to the other procurement methods including research & development. Various problems are likely to occur between test and evaluation group, and defense industries regarding the regulations during Test & Evaluation. Therefore, the regulations and methods need to be amended to upgrade the current domestic purchase program into an effective and flawless one. In this paper, six variables have been chosen by the help of experts working in Ministry of National Defense (MND), Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), Army Headquarters and DAPA. Results : The six variables are effectiveness of proposal evaluation, fairness of test and evaluation, sufficiency of operational capabilities, seasonal period of test and evaluation, fulfillment in Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) of the industries, and guaranteeing appropriate environment for related enterprises' participation. Conclusion : This paper can help defense industries to enhance their development capabilities, and to perform tests more fairly and effectively considering the key factors identified in this research.

Procurement system of public construction projects in Japan is changing with diversity in rapid pace. The quality assurance and risk management of construction projects should be more certain as the projects are turning into larger scale and more complexed. The clients in the public sector will want to make the relation of responsibility among the client, the designer (architects and engineers), and contractor clearer in terms of role and risk. Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is one of the methods for collaboration of the public sector and the private sector in public construction projects where the public utilizes the ability and suggestion of the private. Private Finance Initiative (PFI), Design-Build-Operate (DBO), market testing, designated manager system, outsourcing of tasks in local governments are well-known as examples of PPP in Japan. Indeed, there is an obvious trend that Design-Build (DB) is adopted in public construction projects in many countries including Japan. In this paper, the public construction projects in various procurement systems are surveyed and analyzed. They are not limited within the traditional procurement, Design-bid-Build, a separate order system of design and construction. Design-Build or PFI are adopted. In particular, contract by wide range including maintenance of equipment can be found. On the other hand, modification from originally typical PFI is taking place, such as concept design and project finance are removed from the roles and the tasks of the special purpose company (SPC) in PFI. Standard roles and tasks in a construction project are modeled in this paper.

This paper provides a case for the comprehensive performance management system in Public Procurement Service. Public Procurement Service set up the BSC system at the beginning of 2006 by improving and complementing the earliest performance management system and made it possible to automatically connet the performance measurement and evaluation of the departmental and person by using CSF and KPI, which result from their mission and strategic assignments. Therefore, the public service of the adminstration is able to offer better customer service, as the private corporations do, apply the incentive and disincentive policies to the personnel and reward administration and contribute to changing the administration into an organization of competition and performance compensation. The application of the BSC system enables the strengthening of the individual evaluation system in the departmental, integration of various evaluations into one, and the establishment of a monitering system of achievement rate in the objective management in the periodic results. Such a case study of Public Procurement Service will determine the course of establishment of the BSC in other public institutions and suggest many successful methods and ideas for the performance management system.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify key performance evaluation items and factors that are effective and practical for project management of defense standard standard improvement projects, and to develop a quantitative performance evaluation model. Methods: For the development of a performance evaluation model for defense standard improvement projects, we analyzed past major project performance and derived evaluation items and factors. To increase the objectivity and efficiency of project evaluation, we developed an evaluation index that enables relative evaluation of evaluation targets, and calculated the main importance of evaluation items using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method based on the main opinions of expert groups. Results: The study resulted in the identification of main performance items for defense standard improvement projects, which were classified into defense standard conformity review performance and defense standard improvement performance items. We also simplified the evaluation model by integrating various evaluation items into similar evaluation factors. Additionally, we developed a quantitative evaluation index that enables relative evaluation of the targets and verified the objectivity and validity of the suggested performance evaluation model by reevaluating it using performance data from past commissioned professional institutions Conclusion: Developing a quantitative evaluation model for defense standard improvement projects is expected to provide a means of measuring the effectiveness of the project, and to be used as a tool to determine the appropriateness and effectiveness of medium and long-term project plans.

Supply chain management is a subject that has an increasing importance due to the developments in the global markets and technology. In this paper, a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming model is developed for the supply chain of a company dealing with procurement, storage, filling, and distribution of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in Turkey. The model intends to determine the quantities of LPG to be procured, stored, filled to cylinders, and transported between the plants and demand centers for six planning periods. In this model, which aims to minimize both total costs (sum of procurement, storage, filling, and transportation costs) and total transportation distances, demand quantities of the main demand centers and decision maker's aspiration levels about objective functions are fuzzy. After comparing the results obtained from the model with those obtained by using different methods, it is concluded that the proposed method can be applied to real world problems practically and it may be used in this type of problems in order to generate an efficient solution.
