Abstract

The industry has been extensively chastised in recent decades for its lack of efficiency and productivity, and it has been demonstrated that Malaysian building projects are of low quality. The Technical Committee on Quality Assessment in Construction, with the cooperation of the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB), created the Quality Assessment System (QLASSIC) in Construction to address this issue. QLASSIC is a scoring system for assessing and evaluating constructed building performance. The Construction Industry Standard (CIS 7:2006) provides the foundation for it. Unfortunately, from its inception in November 2006, this assessment system has had inadequate implementation. In Malaysia, QLASSIC was not widely applied and was dismissed by the construction industry player. In construction businesses there is large number of industry players that are unaware of QLASSIC. Therefore, this research is aimed at investigating the industry player’s perspective on the implementation of QLASSIC in the construction industry in Klang Valley area, Malaysia. Besides, 100 sets of the questionnaire have been prepared to obtain the data but only 80 sets of questionnaires have been targeted to received back from the respondent with a construction industry background. After data collected would be analysed by using the descriptive statistic method. In conclusion, a study on the issues of the Qlassic Assessment System implemented for building projects in Klang Valley area from the perspective of industry player is formed. Different findings in different objectives have been found in this research.
