At the time its name was Public Transport and guided by Italians and other foreigners. In 1952, it was organized in to a share company by getting legal entity from the government. At that particular year the enterprise had only 10 buses to serve the people of Addis Ababa in four routes. In 1956 the enterprise bought 20 Mercedes model buses and increased its routes to 14. The management also shifted from foreigners to Ethiopians in the same. In 1973 the enterprise bought 50 city buses and strengthened its transportation service and in 1974 the enterprise ownership transferred from Share Company to the government (ACBSE, 2013).

By using the aforementioned number of buses the enterprise gives transportation services for more than five hundred twenty thousand people per day through 122 routes in Addis Ababa and its surrounding.

This study focused on service delivery performance of the enterprise and customers’ satisfaction after the BPR implementation.
