description The problem addressed in this study is the persistent delays in managing project timelines for water projects at RUWASA. Have resulted in extended lead times, negatively impacting project outcomes and service delivery. Water projects face challenges in managing project timelines, resulting in extended lead times and negative effects on project outcomes. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate the effect of procurement contract management, on water project lead time management at RUWASA-Dodoma region. The research applied the principal-agent theory to understand the dynamics between stakeholders in procurement and used a cross-sectional research design targeting a population of 150 individuals, with 109 respondents selected through simple random. Data collection included questionnaires and the analysis employed descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis to provide comprehensive insights. The findings revealed significant relationships between procurement efficiency and project lead time management. Descriptive statistics highlighted trends such as delays in contract execution while regression analysis demonstrated that effective procurement strategies positively impacted project timelines. The study concluded that procurement contract management has a significant effect on water project lead time management at RUWASA-Dodoma Region, Tanzania. The study recommended that RUWASA should improve contract management by focusing on clearer and more specific terms in procurement contracts, as this would help address the challenges and inefficiencies hindering project timelines.
