| dc.description.abstract | The study is aimed at providing a comprehensive understanding of the mediating role played by business process outcomes in the e-procurement and ethical behaviors model with empirical evidence from public institutions. The study employed a cross-sectional explanatory research design with quantitative methods. The study population comprised of top and medium level managers in logistics, supply chain, and operations at Ghanaian public institutions. The study employed both random and purposive sampling techniques to collect data from a sample of 250. The study utilized inferential analysis aimed at achieving the study objectives with SPSS v26, Amos and Hayes Process Macro which were employed to evaluate the hypotheses of the study. The findings showed that e procurement has positive and significant effect on ethical behavior among the public institutions. The study also found that business process outcome significantly drives ethical behavior and also mediates the relationship between e-procurement and ethical behavior. Based on the findings it is recommended that public organizations engage in thorough training programmes that teach personnel about ethical concepts, norms, and the value of ethical behavior in procurement procedures | |
