and purchasing them require the establishment of a sound process in the execution of obtaining projects. Most

services, etc.

Cement Steel as well as Mobile phones distributers in Nepal, using different source of marketing tools. Eleven
critical success factors were identified and ranked in order of importance:
• Supplier Process and Time,
• Price
• Technological standard

• System training and documentation
• System integration
• Security
• Change management
