Abstract

This research paper delves into the crucial role of materials management in construction projects, categorizing it into five key areas: measurement and specification, procurement, delivery, administration, and utilization. The study, focusing on qualitative and quantitative aspects, particularly explores factors contributing to project delays. The literature review establishes materials management as critical, involving planning, quality control, procurement, and timely delivery. Given the significant expense of building materials, strategic management is vital for cost reduction. The research identifies and categorizes key factors responsible for delays in construction projects, with a focus on the Indian context. A survey employing the Relative Importance Index (RII) reveals limited supplier availability, low IT utilization, and delays in material receipt as primary contributors to material management delays. The paper concludes with practical recommendations such as diversifying supplier bases and improving technology integration and communication, contributing nuanced insights for practitioners and researchers in the ongoing effort to optimize materials management and minimize delays in construction projects.
