This study sought to analyze the results of a survey that aims to develop a SCM framework for the successful delivery of construction projects using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The study adopted an exploratory research design with the aid of both quantitative and qualitative methods of research. Purposive and convenient sampling techniques were utilized with the aid of semi-structured interview, case study and questionnaire in selecting respondents from a construction firm in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. Structured questionnaires were used as instrument for primary data collection after it was pre-tested via a pilot study for purposes of validity and reliability. The data collected were later analyzed using the AHP. Findings from the study shows that the following main factors; trust and long term relationships (TLR=0.283), supply chain finance (SCF=0.189), continuous performance measurement (CPM=0.154), information technology (IFT=0.099), quality (QTY=0.096), supplier management (SMT=0.078), top management's support (TMS=0.055) and supply chain orientation (SCO=0.046) are key to the successful delivery of construction projects using the SCM approach. The findings indicates that when delivering construction projects via the SCM approach, more emphasis should be skewed towards the eight (8) (critical) factors in the hierarchy as they would drive the critical ingredient to achieving success in the delivery of projects using SCM. In a nutshell, the framework would kick start the drive to ensuring a drastic increase and improvement in the business of construction in Nigeria. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
