Abstract: Objectives To ensure the rationality and safety of the use of procurement funds effectively, we established a procurement management system for blood centres and analyzed its application effects. Methods Based on national policies and the procurement characteristics of the industry, a standardized procurement management system was established and implemented through pilot projects and multi-stage implementation. The application effect of the system was analyzed from three aspects: improving work efficiency, selecting procurement methods and information disclosure, and optimizing and perfecting procurement documents. Results A continuous improvement and self-perfecting procurement management system was formed by establishing an "implementation-audit-control" power hierarchy, and establishing a full-process procurement internal control system (procurement process internal control mechanism, performance evaluation and improvement mechanism, risk control mechanism). After the implementation of the procurement management system (2019—2023) compared with the period before the implementation (2015—2017), the annual efficiency of processing the number of projects in the procurement increased by 23.64%, and the procurement work efficiency was significantly improved. The proportion of projects procured through external bidding increased from (23.18±6.10)% to (62.79±2.31)%, and the proportion of projects procured through the procurement review team deliberation decreased from (76.82±6.10)% to (16.39±3.39)%. The difference in the proportion of procurement methods is statistically significant (P<0.05), indicating that procurement review is becoming more professional. The proportion of projects with public announcements increased from (23.18±6.10)% to (99.3±1.56)%, and the difference is statistically significant (P<0.05), showing that information disclosure is becoming more transparent. After the establishment of the procurement management system, the modification rate of procurement documents reached (36.31±12.19)%, and procurement work is becoming more standardized. Conclusion The establishment of the procurement management system effectively controls the use of procurement power, improves work efficiency, further ensures the compliance and security of the use of funds by blood supply institutions, and the systematization, standardization, and proceduralization of the procurement process, to build a clean, compliant, and upright procurement environment, which is worth promoting and applying.
