Specific coverage of this study was intended: to analyze influence of electronic tendering on Supply Chain (SC) performance, to examine influence of e-informing on SC performance, and to estimate contribution of e-payment on SC performance. Investigation was conducted at Bakhressa Group Ltd located in Dar es Salaam region. From the population of 193 a sample of 130 respondents was obtained. The methods of data collection were documentary, questionnaire interviews, and observation the selection techniques of the respondents were purposive sampling and simple random sampling. This study involved mixed strategies which were qualitative and quantitative analysis. From the findings it was observed that e-tendering is positively and significantly influencing Supply Chain performance. Furthermore, the researcher noted that e-informing is also positively and significantly influencing supply Chain performance, likewise, e-payment is contributing positively to Supply Chain performance in Tanzania. On the basis of the above findings, the study recommends that Tanzania Government should analyze and advance its e-tendering activities in order to ensure that it not only stays positive and significant, but also progress it. It is suggested that the administration is required to ensure that all modules from purchasing requisition to good receipt note should be controlled through e-procurement. This will eradicate waste in procurement process such as delay, postal; administration cost, auditing will be easy and well maintained, as well as corruption will be reduced. Moreover, as einforming positively and significantly influence supply chain performance, it is necessary for organizations to collect information for supplier qualification which includes: experience, previous clientele as well as disseminating that information to the appropriate suppliers.
