- Abstract:
This thesis concerns the processes of construction procurement in Malaysia in the context of Malaysia's 'Vision 2020'. The aims of the research study are: To identify, on a construction industry-wide perspective, the types and extent of current and perceived future constraints in major resources and functions within the processes of construction procurement in Malaysia that may inhibit the level of construction output; and to develop proposed strategies to remove or alleviate the constraints identified. The findings suggest that constraints in some resources and functions within the processes of construction procurement in Malaysia are currently experienced. They also suggest that the constraints in some resources and functions are perceived to exist in the future until at least 2001. These constraints may inhibit the level of construction output. The findings also indicate the types and extent of the constraints that exist now and are perceived to exist in the future until at least 2001. In addition, strategies that could be implemented to remove or alleviate the constraints identified have been developed, appraised and validated. This thesis draws two key implications: It brings attention to the authorities responsible for the development of the construction industry in Malaysia the process of construction procurement, the constraints it suffers from and suitable strategies that could be implemented to remove or to alleviate those constraints; and It presents a comprehensive research methodology on the basis of the triangulation approach of data sources and research methods. The methodology could be utilised to study constraints and identify appropriate strategies to remove or to alleviate constraints within the processes of construction procurement in Malaysia at other times or in construction industries elsewhere.
