Description
Summary:Delivering system in construction industry in Malaysia has been transformed from a Local Authority certification based (Certificate of Fitness for Occupation; CFO) to self-certification by a qualified person (Certificate of Completion and Compliance; CCC) starting from April 2007. The purpose of this study is to identify differences between CFO and CCC delivering system in terms of procedures such as the process, and technical requirements, and also in terms of professional liabilities such as duty of care, biasness, and delay. Will the CCC be merely an ad hoc and simplistic solution to improve and speed up the delivering system? The findings of the study show the most preferable delivering system. The study has been done based on primary and secondary data. Data collections have been analyzed using qualitative and quantitative method. Ten (10) respondents participated in the survey and twenty (20) construction projects were chosen for case studies in this research. In the end, the following results were sought. Of the ten (10) respondents, nine (9) of respondents prefer CCC delivering system because the principles of CCC system improve the weakness of CFO system. Most of respondents state that CFO limits the professional liabilities while CCC extends the liabilities. As a conclusion, all related parties in construction project especially PSP must clearly understand with the procedures of delivering system and know their roles and liabilities to improve the system better.
