| dc.description.abstract | Successful completion of projects in the construction industry remains a difficult task at all levels. However, the members involved in the construction team are sometimes constrained because the projects are influenced by several factors that differ, which range from internal to external factors. There has been a delay in upgrading health centers II to III in the Bunyoro Sub-Region. The research focused on evaluating the construction management practices and procurement standards in the upgrade of health centers II to III in the Bunyoro Sub-region. The objectives of the study were; to examine the level of construction management practices in the upgrade of health centers, to determine the level of procurement standards in the upgrade, to establish the relationship between construction management practices and procurement standards, and to analyze the acquired data and recommend a possible approach of improvement of the construction and procurement practices in the stated region. The study used both Quantitative and Qualitative approaches with descriptive and correlational research designs. Data were collected from 99 respondents using a questionnaire and a checklist sampling is both purposive and snowball.The study found a high level ofcontract planning and procurement standards with (aggregate mean = 3.17). This suggested that contract planning and procurement standards influenced the upgrade of health center construction projects in the Bunyoro sub-region. The study found a low level of contract implementation and procurement standards (aggregate mean = 1.83). The study found a low level of contract monitoring and procurement standards with (aggregate mean = 2.15). The study found a weak positive relationship between construction management practices and procurement standards in the upgrade of health centers by the Ministry of Health in the Bunyoro sub-region with (r = 0.489, p = 0.0000 ≤ 0.05). The findings suggest that procurement standards will improve when construction management practices Contract Planning, Implementation and Monitoring are put in place.However, successful completion of public Construction projects depends on both internal and external factors. | |
