This research supports the RBV (Resource-BasedView) theory that each organization needs resourcesto support its goals. The results of this research have implications for HEIs to increase their ability to innovate and selectmale procurement officers who can strengthen support for GPP implementation. For regulators, the results of this research can be used as a reference for making regulations regarding the implementation of GPP in HEIs.
