dc.description.abstract | Cost is generally accepted as an essential ingredient of good design. However, the co-ordination and integration of building services constitute a major problem in the procurement and cost management of buildings coupled with gaps in knowledge by practitioners in the technology of building services.The study proposed a generic framework for integrating quantity surveyors services in the procurement and effective cost management of building services in Malaysia construction industry. The framework requires early involvement of design consultants including specialist designers and quantity surveyors. The most significant obstacle to the adoption of the framework is the industry commitment and the client's readiness to pay for additional services. | en_US |
