The Moderating Effect of Top Management’s Environmental Orientation. Adjaho Klenam Amanda A thesis submitted to the department of procurement and suppl y chain management, institute of distance learning in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the award of the degree of Master of science in (procurement and suppl y chain management) Green procurement is one of the significant pillars of sustainable supply chain management (SCM) being adopted by organizations worldwide to address environmental concerns, remain competitive, and comply with regulatory requirements. The main purpose of this study is to examine the impact of green procurement and operational capabilities, on organizational sustainability with the moderating effect of top management’s environmental orientation in the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources. Based on the research objectives and questions of the study, the study made use of the quantitative research approach through Descriptive survey research design. Population for the study included members of the procurement board and selected workers from other department of the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources. Purposive sampling method was used to purposively select the sample size. Data was collected using both primary and secondary sources. The main data used was Questionnaire. The researcher edited, tabulated and analyzed the quantitative data using the Statistical package for Social Science (SPSS) version 23.0, and transferred these statistical data into Microsoft Word for analysis. The study revealed a positive relationship between Green Procurement Practice and Organizational Sustainability. This suggests that organizations that adopt green procurement practices, such as selecting suppliers with sustainable practices, using environmentally friendly materials, and promoting energy-efficient technologies, are more likely to achieve higher levels of sustainability. Again, the study found a positive relationship between Operational Capabilities and Organizational Sustainability. It was similarly found that the impact of green procurement practices and operational capabilities on organizational sustainability is strengthened when top management demonstrates a high level of environmental awareness and commitment. The study concluded that there is a positive relationship between Green Procurement Practice and Operational Capabilities with Organizational Sustainability. This indicate that organizations that adopt green procurement practices, develop operational capabilities and align with sustainability goals are more likely to achieve higher levels of sustainability. The study therefore recommends that training and education programs be provided to enhance top management's environmental awareness and knowledge. Again, the study recommends that collaboration and partnership with suppliers be fostered to collectively work towards achieving sustainability goals. 2024-01-09T10:48:23Z 2024-01-09T10:48:23Z 2023 Thesis https://ir.knust.edu.gh/handle/123456789/14970 en application/pdf KNUST |
