The study assessed the procurement planning and supply chain performance of public hospitals in Rwanda.
The objectives were finding out the influence of selection of needs or requirements, determining the
quantities and estimated costs, selection of appropriate procurement methods and processes on the supply
chain performance of Rwanda Military Hospital. The study used the descriptive survey design and
inferential statistical. The population was 96 personnel; sample size was 96 people selected using universal
and purposive sampling techniques. Data collection techniques were questionnaire technique, while the
methods of data analysis were descriptive statistical method; correlation coefficient, and multiple linear
regression analysis. Findings showed the value of R-square was 49.5% means that the proportion of supply
chain performance (dependent variable) is explained by the independent variables (determining the
quantities and estimated costs) at 49.5%. The adjusted R-square is used to compensate for additional
variables in the model. In this case, the adjusted R-square is 48.7%. The value of R-square in this study is
56.1% means that the proportion of supply chain performance (dependent variable) is explained by the
independent variables (selection of appropriate procurement methods and processes) at 56.1%. The adjusted
R-square is used to compensate for additional variables in the model. The adjusted R-square is 55.4%.
Findings shows the value of R-square in this study is 59.0% means that the proportion of supply chain
performance (dependent variable) is explained by the independent variable (procurement planning) at
59.0%. The adjusted R-square is used to compensate for additional variables in the model. In this case, the
adjusted R-square is 58.3%.
