 This Article explores current environment and practice of public procurement in china, aiming to summarize the task environment and to find a favorable organizational structure. We selected  three representative Procurement Centers and conducted in-depth field study on their purchasing processes。Given china’s political and administrative context, we conclude that the task environment should consist of a strong Decision-Making Team, a unified supervisory agency, constituent institutions and vendors. We recommend a unified procurement centre with a functional structure as a favorable choice. The key departments of a procurement centre include purchasing\tendering, contract management and inventory Allocation.(SSCI)
