GROUP ASSIGNMENT
This is a group assignment that requires students to analyse the different methods of tendering and procurement methods that are being practiced in the industry for a branch campus in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.
The three tendering methods discussed in my assignment are open tendering, selective tendering and negotiated tendering. On the other hand, the two procurement methods examined are traditional procurement and design & build procurement. After detailed analysis of each methods, my group member and I have proposed the design & build procurement method, with an selective tendering system for this project.
Taylor's Graduate Capabilities( TGC Values )
From this module, I have a better understanding of the role and duties of Quantity Surveyor as it provides an overall overview of professional and contractual responsibilities of a consultant and contractor quantity surveyor from the design stage till the final account stage. I am also able to identify the roles of various parties that involved in construction industry and their construction contracts and contractual obligations.
