Abstract

The case “E-Procurement through the Indian Government’s Version of Amazon.com: GeM” talks about the Government of India (GoI)’s initiative to undertake e-procurement of goods and services for Central and State Government Organizations through the national public procurement portal (NPPP) – Government e-Marketplace (GeM). The GoI transformed legacy procurement systems through GeM, which used technology, analytics, and digitization of processes. The case provides details about the procedures of GeM’s unified public procurement system. It also touches upon the benefits provided by GeM to both the buyers and sellers. In addition, the way the online, end-to-end marketplace enabled inclusiveness and encouraged startups is briefly described. The case discusses in detail the issues preventing the wide scale adoption of GeM and the efforts being made by the GoI to make it popular. Can GeM emerge as the sole platform handling India’s public procurement?
