The research sample was 102 people, consisting of procurement apparatus in state higher education institutions. The research data were obtained through a questionnaire containing an instrument to explore information about the application of governance principles at each stage of procurement, with the approach of planned behavior theory and capacity building theory. Hypothesis testing was carried out in a Structural Equation Model (Structural Equation Modeling), which analyzes the path, significance, and direction of the relationship between the measurement model and the structural model. The results of the hypothesis test show that GPG has a positive effect on the behavior of the procurement apparatus. This means that the better the GPG, the better the behavior of the procurement apparatus in adopting the procurement system to obtain goods/services according to the desired quantity and quality in a transparency, accountability, responsibility, independency, and fairness manner.
