Opis

This manuscript on the evaluation of the supply chain management in the civil construction industry for effective project delivery in Lagos state, Nigeria, is intended to identify the challenges of the construction supply chain management and outline construction chain management practices that can help in curbing these challenges. More so, a risk assessment is conducted to ascertain the various construction supply chain risks that are peculiar to the construction industry in Lagos state. A survey questionnaire was distributed to 75 respondents (construction stakeholders) among the five (5) administrative zones in Lagos, Nigeria. 65 questionnaires were successfully received as feedback from the respondents. The data received was compiled and analyzed via a statistical package for social science (SPSS 26). The raw data obtained from the field was analyzed using the Average Mean Score and Relative Importance Index. From analysis, constraints such as inappropriate organizational structure, ignorance of the supply chain and scarcity of support from top management had a bracket mean score of 3.66 and are equally ranked 1.
