Abstract: | Procurement strategies for project delivery are considered to be key to performance improvement in the construction industry. Clients, through their bargaining power, can provide incentives and rewards to encourage good performance. The need for sustainable construction, research and development in sustainability and procurement is emerging, as the bridge between design and construction, the building procurement system therefore is critical to deliver sustainability in practice. It is crucial for the successful implementation of sustainability within conventional construction processes. This paper reviews the concept of sustainability in construction and explores the internal relationship between sustainability and building procurement system, Analysis of findings from the literature revealed that, the key project parameters are; project cost, time and quality and involved construction stakeholder satisfaction. It also revealed that traditional and design and build with their variants contract procurement strategies are cost effective, time efficient and improve quality and stakeholder satisfaction. It was concluded that the perceived contract procurement approaches are effective and satisfy all the key project parameters. It is recommended that, requires a careful selection of an appropriate contract procurement strategy; thus, the adoption of a contract procurement system that best addresses project objectives must be implemented. By adopting an appropriate contract procurement method, clients can expect to achieve best value-for-money outcomes, as risks could be most effectively minimised and the occurrence of contractual disputes and cost and time overruns, would also be eliminated. |
