Abstract:

This study investigates the effect of organizational culture on procurement performance at the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training in Zanzibar. The specific objectives were to assess the influence of organizational culture on procurement performance. Quantitative data were collected from 85 procurement professionals selected through stratified random sampling using structured questionnaires. The analysis was conducted using simple linear regression. Results demonstrated a positive and statistically significant relationship between organizational culture and procurement performance (p < 0.001). This finding confirmed that organizational culture significantly predicts procurement performance, explaining a substantial portion of the variance. Based on these results, the study recommends capacity-building training focused on ethical culture, regular cultural audits, and leadership development programs aimed at strengthening organizational values in procurement units. Future research should consider expanding the scope to other government ministries and the private sector to further validate the findings and address existing gaps.
