This paper reviews all the prior literatures relevant to QMS in construction industry. The findings and conclusions obtained are sorted out into different categories to develop the framework of the paper. To date, very few researches have been performed on the areas, such as project management, 'hard' and 'soft' quality practice, technical and non-technical approaches, project performance, and system maintenance which come under the purview of the QMS in construction industry.
