Summary:Choosing a subcontractor for specialised work on a construction project is a difficult decision for the main contractor to make because it can affect the progression and smoothness of the project’s delivery. An improper subcontractor’s selection can result in issues such as poor work quality and project’s cost and time overrun. Thus, this report aims to study the selection of subcontractors for specialist works specifically for the installation works of reinforced concrete piles at the E’Island Lake Haven Residence project. It comprises four blocks, an 18-storey high rise residential project that is currently under construction in Puchong, Selangor. The three objectives for this report are to investigate the methods of subcontractor selection for specialized construction related works together with its significance, to analyse the criteria for subcontractor selections that make them qualified for the works, and lastly is to determine the problems that could arise during subcontractor selection and the ways to overcome them. This report will mainly focus on the responsibilities of the contracts department of the main contractor and what are their roles in selecting the best subcontractor to put responsible for the mentioned scope of works at a construction site.
