ABSTRACT
Assessment of project quality
management processes adopted by the building project contractors was studied in
Osun state, Nigeria. This was with a view to examining the project quality
management processes adopted for project success. The study covered 36 private
projects and 25 public projects, making 61 projects in the state. The research
instrument used was questionnaire. It elicited information on the issues such
as respondents designation, type of projects executed, project quality
management processes and challenges encountered by the contractors. The data
collected was analysed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The
results among others showed that the application of the required standards to
the project to impact on the deliverable (2.45) and involvement of Quality
Assessment (2.34) were below average. There were inadequate facilities,
machines, tools and equipment for effective work on site (2.72), and scarcity
of skilled workers(2.58). The study
recommended among others that adequate facilities, machines, tools and
equipment should be provided on site during project execution. This will assist
the workers on site to meeting the client’s requirements during project
execution.
