Abstract

This conceptualization paper proposes an integrated framework for optimizing government procurement performance through digital procurement transformation. Drawing on Dynamic Capability Theory and New Public Management (NPM), this framework addresses a gap in the literature, which has largely discussed digital transformation, procurement governance, and organizational performance separately without demonstrating the synergistic relationships between them. This framework positions digital procurement transformation as a key driver for increased transparency, accountability, process efficiency, and information integration within public organizations. Through these mechanisms, organizations are expected to improve the quality of decision-making, the effectiveness of resource use, and overall procurement performance. Expected outcomes include increased procurement efficiency, the quality of public services, value for money, and increased public trust in government resource management. This framework provides conceptualization and practical insights for procurement managers and policymakers, and serves as a foundation for future empirical research.
