Introduction The vital significance of procurement in the success of any project necessitate for deliberate measures and consideration in the selection of the most appropriate procurement method (Jim Smith, et al., 2004; Osipova & Eriksson, 2011). From the beginning of any construction project, clients, developers, consultants, builders, end user, and other pertinent stakeholders require optimal performance having budget constraints and other crucial factors in mind. It is apparent that more than one procurement methods are available and are adopted according to the requirements and the nature of a particular project. The methods/systems can be broadly categorized into traditional method, design and build system, and the management contract method (Mikko & Arto, 2014; Babatunde, et al., 2010; Ojo, 2009). The available procurement systems have unique characteristics and features and, consequently, they are adaptable to specific projects. In addition, each of the methods has advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, stakeholders in the construction projects ought to be deliberately cautious in the selection processes. Factors That Determine the Choice of a Procurement Method Before discussing the various procurement methods, it is sensible to mention some of the issues that influence the decision-making processes during procurement method selection. Stakeholders consider key factors such as pricing, flexibility, time, the nature of the project, risk, responsibility, and client resources among other factors (Davis, et al., 2008; Ojo, 2009; Jim Smith, et al., 2004). Procurement Methods Traditional/General Method In the traditional contracting method, the role of the contractor is restricted to building since the employer provides an already completed design. As such, adopting the traditional method gives the client considerable control on design. Pricing, in this method, is a product of factors such as bills of quantities given by the client, re-measurement contracts, target cost contracts, and cost plus/prime cost contracts (Davis, et al., 2008). In addition, the pricing approaches in the traditional method have relatively higher levels of certainty since the designing processes are done prior to the actual construction (Ojo, 2009). Advantages of the traditional method of procurement  1. The client/employer is offered professional independence in administration and monitoring.  2. The traditional method allows for relatively higher levels of accountability due to competitive selection techniques.  3. The is equity during the tendering processes since all contractors are given equitable bidding opportunities.  4. The responsibility and control over the designing processes are put on the client and, therefore, high levels of functionality and overall quality of design are influenced.  5. Relatively higher levels of price certainty.  6. Flexible (easily managed/arranged) variations.  7. Many construction procurement stakeholders are familiar with the traditional system and, therefore, it is a tested and tried approach that can work in various types of procurements. Disadvantages of the traditional method of procurement  1. Splitting of roles (designing and contracting) oftentimes results in disputes, especially
