That’s why many NGO’s have deployed strategies in the management of their supply
chain. These strategies include the criteria in which the NGO’s select their suppliers’.
Selection of suppliers is a process that involves multi-objective decision,
encompassing many tangible and intangible factors in a hierarchical manner and the
applicability of the criteria used will depend on the product or service produced and
the market for which these products or services is targeted. A robust decision should
be made once the selection criteria are compatible with the organization competitive
strategy since it’s possible to achieve an alignment between the two its goals and
objectives. NGO’s aim of making the best decisions in choosing a criterion is to
optimized supply chain performance
The overall objective of this research was to determine the factors that affect supplier
selection decisions and also to establish the relationships between supplier selection
criteria and supply chain performance of NGO’s in Kenya. The study focused on only
48 highly active NGO’s in Kenya from a population of 2,507 NGO’s available in
Kenya. Descriptive research design and proportionate random sampling were used to
achieve the results. In this paper a set of supplier selection decision was adapted to
design the questionnaire for practical survey. The questionnaire was designed to find
out the relationship supply chain performance and selection decision. Data was
analyzed using SPSS software version 21 for windows. The results confirmed that
supply chain decisions play a very important role in agreement with the criteria
aligning with the NGO’s strategy. | en_US |
