Materials supply management in construction projects and satisfaction with the quality of structures

Abstract

This paper investigates how construction projects participants’ evaluations of two aspects of material supply management, i.e. communication and coordination among involved parties and materials quality control, are related to satisfaction with the quality of structures. On a sample of 128 respondents in the Republic of Macedonia a questionnaire was administered to assess study variables. It was found that satisfaction with the quality of structures was relatively low. Respondents assessed materials supply management, i.e. coordination and communication among involved parties, and materials quality control as average. Pearson correlation analysis showed that these two variables as aspects of materials supply management were positively related to satisfaction with the structures quality.This paper investigates how construction projects participants’ evaluations of two aspects of material supply management, i.e. communication and coordination among involved parties and materials quality control, are related to satisfaction with the quality of structures.
