Abstract

This study aimed to assess the influence of procurement contractual risk management on the performance of building construction at the Tanzania Building Agency. The targeted population for this study was 267 respondents. The study adopted a descriptive research design, and a simple random technique was used to select 160 questionnaires for quantitative data, of which only 152 were returned as completed questionnaires. Descriptive analysis and inferential analysis were used to analyze the data. The findings showed that the procurement risk management plan, risk register, internal audit, contract terms and conditions, have a significant influence performance of building construction projects at TBA, with all P Values were below 0.05. A potential research limitation is the reliance on data from a single agency, the Tanzania Building Agency, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to other contexts. The practical implication is that improving procurement contractual risk management practices can enhance the performance and efficiency of building construction projects at TBA and other Construction industries. It was recommended that TBA should enhance procurement contractual risk management by standardizing risk management plans, regularly updating risk registers, clearly defining contractual terms, and improving risk assessment capabilities for the contract management team to ensure timely, quality, and efficient building project completion. Study lies in its focus on the direct impact of procurement contractual risk management on building construction project performance within the Tanzania Building Agency, offering insights for improving public sector construction
