4. Description Abstract Generally, the study assesses the regulatory framework for green procurement adoption in Tanzania. The study had three Independent variables which are public procurement laws support, understanding public procurement regulations, enforcement mechanisms and one dependent variable green procurement adoption. The study was conducted at PPRA Dodoma. The study employed a causal research design with a quantitative research approach. Data was collected through a closed ended questionnaire and analyzed through multiple regressions analysis. Findings of the study revealed that, the Public Procurement Laws Support variable has an unstandardized coefficient (β) of 0.302 and a standardized coefficient (Beta) of 0.316 with a significant t-value of 5.250 (p = 0.000), highlighting its positive and significant influence on green procurement adoption. The GP Knowledge variable also shows a significant positive effect, with an unstandardized coefficient (β) of 0.213 and a standardized Beta of 0.202. The t-value of 3.579 (p = 0.001) indicates a statistically significant relationship. The GP Enforcement Mechanism variable has the strongest positive effect on green procurement adoption, with an unstandardized coefficient (β) of 0.503 and a standardized Beta of 0.498. The t-value of 7.688 (p = 0.000) further emphasizes its high level of significance. The study recommends that to enhance green procurement adoption, policymakers should strengthen public procurement laws to include sustainability principles, while organizations prioritize knowledge-building initiatives and establish enforcement mechanisms. This combined approach fosters a supportive legal environment, empowers procurement professionals with the necessary skills, and ensures adherence to green standards, contributing to broader environmental goals.
