Resumo(s)
This research aims to evaluate the National Public Procurement System (NPPS) as a strategic
instrument of public management, in Portugal. The creation of NPPS, in 2007, followed the
European Union model for public procurement, based on criteria of economy, efficiency, and
effectiveness that leads to greater transparency and accountability and reflects public value. This experiment analysis which are the weakest and the strongest dimensions of the NPPS and to what
extent does the performance of the NPPS fit as a strategic instrument of public management. A
research survey, based on the conceptual model developed by Essig et al. (2010) and later applied
by Thi et al. (2012), adapted to Portuguese context, was applied to 1,500 entities linked to the
NPPS. The sample size of 101 valid questionnaires corresponds to an effective response rate of
5.6%. The data analysis used exploratory factor analysis to validate the distribution of the variables
and performed a principal component analysis with varimax rotation. The research concluded that
NPPS has, in general, a low level of performance, despite the positive contribution of the
“Information and control” and “Electronic platforms” factors in process management. These
results corroborate the need for a realignment of the public procurement strategy in Portugal.
