This book deals with best practice in construction procurement, the process by which customers of the construction industry go about procuring new facilities. Procurement Systems details the whole spectrum of procurement issues, starting with the client or customer and running through managerial, cultural and IT-based issues. The book commences with an overview of previous work and a section on selection criteria is provided to enable practitioners to make their choices of procurement form. Importantly, performance comparisons of different procurement forms are discussed and the main emphasis of the book is to highlight best practice based on the most up to date research. One chapter deals specifically with developmentally oriented procurement issues in NICs (newly industrialised countries), where best practice is assessed from a different set of perspectives. The authors contributing to this book are among the most highly respected and eminent in the field. Procurement Systems is an essential guidebook for construction industry practitioners, clients of the industry, researchers, and postgraduate and final year undergraduate students. It responds to the Latham and Egan reports calling for change to procurement systems in the construction industry, and as such will act as a best practice guide in this area.
