This study analyzed the key interrelation ship between organizational sourcing, HRM proficiency. Upon extending the vast literature, this present study assessed the mediation role of HRM Processes between organizational Sourcing and HRM proficiency, and the moderation role of transactional leadership between organizational sourcing and HRM processes. The study data were gathered from 127 managers sampled across varying organizations in Saudi Arabia. The partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was deployed to test the research hypotheses and the conceptual model. The results obtained from this study for direct impact of organizational sourcing on HRM processes, HRM processes on HRM proficiency. In addition, HRM processes fully mediate the relationship between organizational sourcing and HRM proficiency, while the result fails to confirm the moderation relationship.
