materials, products or services into a finished product for the client. But in the construction industry, a supply
chain comprises the network of organizations involved in the different processes and activities which produce
the materials, components and services that come together to design, procure and deliver a building. The purpose of this research are to explore the performance of construction supply chain on construction sites and
also to investigate the wastages and problems found caused by parties involved in the supply chain. The
research employed a mixed mode approach, implemented through literature review, informal interviews and
questionnaire survey, to analyze the performance and to access the implementation of supply chain management
on construction sites. This research will produce better collaborative relationships and also establish long term
relationships among all members of the supply chain. The research aims to achieve a more successful cost
management and better delivery of good underlying value to the client. |
