greatest threat to mankind and planet. States and organisations are
implementing strategies and policies to address these issues.
Sustainable public procurement (SPP) is considered as one of the
strategy to mitigate the adverse environmental effects. Government of
Pakistan has already taken few initiatives, and despite country
leadership’s will, the pace of SPP implementation is low. In Pakistan
there are regulations and legal frame work for procurement but there is
lack of specific guide lines for procurement officers for implementations
of SPP practices in Pakistan. There are numerous driving indicators
but this study has shed light on effects of awareness, organizational
commitment towards change and approach to green suppliers on
sustainable procurement implementation. Finding from study on
procurement managers working in government departments of
Pakistan indicated that awareness and organizational commitment to
change and approach to green supplier and products were positively
related to sustainable public procurement implementation. These
results implicate the need to create and enhance more awareness and
organizational commitment more over availability of green supplier is
needed to implement SPP successfully. The study may provide a useful
insight for procurement managers and policy makers and can enable
them to be successfully implemented the SPP practices in Pakistan. | | Keywords : | | | Sustainability, Sustainable Public procurement,
