Abstract
The elimination of non-conformance is one of
the goals of quality management, which can be accomplished by effectively managing and supervising the
project. The excellent quality results in increased production and reduced costs, contributing to a rise in the competitive edge. The present body of research has examined
the effect of quality management on the performance of
building projects in the Indian industry. Different researchers have strived to identify the factors that affect the performance of construction projects. A structured questionnaire was floated to different professionals in the industry,
that is, architects, engineers, consultants, developers and
researchers, and >152 valid responses were received. The
questionnaire asked respondents to respond on a Likert
scale of 1–5. The questionnaire asked about the impact of
quality on different aspects of the construction project’s
performance. Relative importance index (RII) are obtained
to rank the elements in order of importance. According
to the factor analysis results, three primary components
account for 62% of the variance. The results show that the
significant aspects of the project affected by quality are
rate of rework, project performance, cost, safety, labour
productivity and profitability with RII scores of 0.85, 0.82,
0.78, 0.76, 0.75 and 0.74, respectively.
