520			_a ABSTRACT MACADANGDANG, VERONICA S. Mariano Marcos State University May 2021. COMPLIANCE TO GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT STANDARDS AMONG STATE UNIVERSITIES IN ILOCOS REGION. Adviser: Ninfa S. Asia, DPA This study was conducted to determine the compliance to government procurement standards among state universities in Ilocos Region along procurement planning and procurement processes. Problems encountered in the compliance to the government procurement standards are also identified. It also assessed the relationship between the profile of the procurement participants and their level of compliance The study was conducted in the four state universities in Ilocos Region namely Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU); University of Northern Philippines (UNP), MMSU LIBRAS Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU), and Pangasinan State University (PSU) Seven groups of respondents were involved in the study Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) chair and members, BAC secretariat/procurement staff, accounting officer, budget officer, deans and directors. The study employed the descriptive-correlation rescarch design using questionnaires to gather the data needed in the study The findings revealed that state universities had high level of compliance to government procurement standards in the procurement planning particularly on the preparation of Project Procurement Management Plan (PPMP) and Annual Procurement Plan (APP) and very high level of compliance in the procurement process through competitive bidding and alternative method of procurement as perceived by the procurement participants. Moreover, the Accounting Officers perceived that the state universities have a very high level of compliance to the government procurement standards. Level of compliance to government procurement standards of procurement participants in the procurement planning and procurement process through competitive bidding had no significant relationship on their profile such as age, sex, civil status, highest educational attainment, present position/designation, employment status and number of years in the present position. Procurement process through alternative method of procurement (negotiated procurement small value procurement and shopping) showed a significant relationship with the number of years in their present position. In totality, the profile of the procurement participants does not necessarily affect their level of compliance to government procurement standards. Although state universities are complying to the government procurement standards, there are still problems encountered which cause delays in the procurement and sometimes failure of bidding. It was recommended that there must be a sincere implementation of the procurement standards stipulated in the Republic Act 9184. Procurement participants are encouraged to attend capability development programs to enhance their knowledge and improve their performance on procurement.
