Description
Summary:The objective of my study are to understand the definition, principle, process and technique applied in partnering and identify the advantages of the concept. The dissertation also conducted to know whether Malaysian construction industry especially professional bodies in private sector aware about it or not. The result will be achieved from questionnaires, which had been carried out as part of the data collection procedure. Construction industry is one of the most important sectors in the Malaysia economy. Its products concern almost all of the other sectors and have literally built Malaysia. Although construction industry throughout the globe is characterized as adversarial, the performance of the Malaysian construction industry is low relative to other developed nations. Partnering is viewed as a mean of achieving a co-operative environment within the industry procurement approach. Partnering promises benefits for both the client and contractors in terms of greater accountability and profitability. Partnering is not a form of contracting but only a method of formalizing working relationship by establishing mutual objective, effective problem resolution procedure and a culture of continuous improvement.
