Abstract
This study develops a model for Total Quality Management (TQM) in Malaysian Industrialized Building System (IBS) projects, examining the impact of critical success factors (CSFs) on TQM application. Within the scope of a survey carried out among construction experts, 371 valid answers were processed, which is regarded as adequate for performing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. Through a survey among construction experts in Malaysia and subsequent PLS-SEM analysis, six CSFs were identified as significantly influencing TQM implementation in IBS projects. These factors underscore the importance of strategic focus on key areas to enhance TQM practices within the construction industry. Collectively, these CSFs account for 70.7 % of the effectiveness in implementing TQM, indicating their substantial role in the success of TQM strategies. The outcomes of this research have significant implications for the decision-making process in the construction field, particularly in the context of Malaysian Industrialized Building System (IBS) projects.
期刊介绍:
in Shams Engineering Journal is an international journal devoted to publication of peer reviewed original high-quality research papers and review papers in both traditional topics and those of emerging science and technology. Areas of both theoretical and fundamental interest as well as those concerning industrial applications, emerging instrumental techniques and those which have some practical application to an aspect of human endeavor, such as the preservation of the environment, health, waste disposal are welcome. The overall focus is on original and rigorous scientific research results which have generic significance.
Ain Shams Engineering Journal focuses upon aspects of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering, environmental engineering, architectural and urban planning engineering. Papers in which knowledge from other disciplines is integrated with engineering are especially welcome like nanotechnology, material sciences, and computational methods as well as applied basic sciences: engineering mathematics, physics and chemistry.
