Abstract: Abstract With the advancement of the comprehensive implementation of budget performance management, promoting the whole-process performance management of government procurement has become an important work of the current government procurement reform. This study takes 58 regulations related to performance management of government procurement of China as case study samples and uses text content analysis method to quantitatively analyze the status quo and problems of performance management policies in the whole process of government procurement from three dimensions. These three dimensions are the whole-process performance management activities, the type of performance policies and the disclosure of whole-process performance information. It can be found that there are three problems in China's current government procurement policy, namely the regulation of whole-process performance management activities needs to be optimized, the regulation of high-level performance management needs to be strengthened, and the regulation of whole-process performance information disclosure needs to be improved. Therefore, we should: first, optimize the regulation of the whole process performance management activity; second, increase the regulation of performance under the Government Procurement Law; third, improve the regulation of whole-process performance information disclosure.
