Abstract

The structure and roles of the Malaysian Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB), as the lead organisation responsible for the implementation of the Construction Industry Master Plan 2006-2015, has become even more critical to the success of the master plan and the construction industry in general. Each division of the CIDB has taken on the responsibility of spearheading various strategic thrusts in collaboration with other government agencies and industry partners. The performance measures of the CIDB have been identified, and a set of ten has been proposed for reporting to the government and stakeholders. The roles and responsibilities of each division and its corresponding performance measures are also defined. The concept of cascading these performance measures is introduced to ensure organisational alignment for all its objectives and initiatives.

Descriptive scope: 4 PCTA

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
