Influence Competence Official Procurement on Election Performance Tender Winner through Transparency-Accountability and Compliance Procedures on the Project Infrastructure in the Regency Tuban
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of procurement officials’ competence on the performance of tender winner selection, with transparency and accountability, as well as procedural compliance, serving as mediating variables in infrastructure projects in Tuban Regency, Indonesia. This research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using a survey method. The population comprises all parties involved in infrastructure project procurement. The sample consists of 120 respondents, including Procurement Officials, Tender Evaluation Committee Members, Commitment-Making Officials (PPK), personnel from the Procurement Services Unit (UKPBJ), and other relevant stakeholders, selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires employing a five-point Likert scale, documentation, and a literature review. The data were subsequently analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS software. The results indicate that: (1) procurement officials’ competence has a positive and significant effect on tender winner selection performance (β = 0.324; T = 3.012; p = 0.003); (2) transparency and accountability partially mediate the relationship between procurement officials’ competence and tender winner selection performance (β = 0.177; T = 2.412; p = 0.016); and (3) procedural compliance also partially mediates this relationship (β = 0.153; T = 2.156; p = 0.031). The structural model explains 51.2% of the variance in tender winner selection performance (R² = 0.512), while the remaining 48.8% is attributable to other factors not included in the model. These findings highlight that procurement officials’ competence serves as a fundamental determinant of the quality of construction service provider selection, while its positive impact is further strengthened by good governance mechanisms, particularly transparency, accountability, and procedural compliance.
