Abstract
To render government procurement efficient, transparent, nondiscriminating, and accountable, an electronic government procurement system is required. Accordingly, Taiwan Government Procurement Law (TGPL) states that suppliers may employ electronic devices to forward a tender. This investigation demonstrates how the electronic government procurement system functions and reengineers internal procurement processes, which in turn benefits both government bodies and venders. The system features explored herein include posting/receiving bids via the Internet, vender registration, certificate authorization, contract development tools, bid/Request For Proposal (RFP) development, online bidding, and online payment, all of which can be integrated easily within most existing information infrastructures. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
