Procurement systems provide the general framework and organisation of line of responsibilities for stakeholders within the construction process. It is a major contributor to client satisfaction in achieving successful completion of projects. This paper focused on examining the impact of different procurement methods and project types on performance of construction projects. The research employed a quantitative approach using structured questionnaires to elicit information from 420 stakeholders in the Nigerian construction industry. The relationship between project types and procurement systems was established as well as their influence on project delivery. The data were analysed and discussed. The results showed that there is correlation between procurement methods and factors used in assessing project success, while no relationship exists between procurement methods and project type. The implication is that cost, time and quality are factors affecting the selection of procurement methods.
