| Summary: | For construction projects, a delay occurs when the project is unable to be finished on
time. In Malaysia, delay is an unavoidable issue that occurs in all phases of construction
project. Presently, the majority of past research has concentrated on determining the
reasons of or resolving delays in the building phase; however, only a few studies have
looked into delays in the planning and design phases. Thus, this study aims to to
identify the factors that contributing to construction project delays in the planning and
design phase, specially for the private housing projects. Quantitative research method is
adopted as to meet the research objective. This research was conducted depend on the
literature review and questionnaire survey. A questionnaire survey was conducted and
delivered to respondents from architectural consultancy practice (ACP) registered with
the Board of Architects Malaysia (LAM). Relative importance index (RII) analysis
methods applied to justify the most critical delay factors for data analysis. Changes of
client’s requirements was among the most critical causes of delay in the planning and
design phases. The outcome of this research is good justification to propose some
recommendations to mitigate delays for better performance of Malaysia’s private
housing construction project.
