Abstract

The problem of construction delays is a global phenomenon, and the construction industry in Malaysia is not an exception to this rule. There are many different sorts of delays, which can be classified as excusable delay, non-excusable delay, compensable delay, and many other types. Each form of delay occurs as a result of a unique set of circumstances, and some of the delays can be recovered by the parties who suffer losses as a result of the delay in a building project. There are a variety of reasons why a project may be delayed, but for the sake of this discussion, we will concentrate on the delay in delivering construction materials to the construction site. The primary goal of this research is to determine the reasons and consequences of construction material delivery delays in the construction sector in, Selangor. As a result of the Movement Control Order, the study will concentrate on suppliers in the Centre Zone of Shah Alam city, Selangor which consists of section one until section twenty-four, and a close-ended questionnaire was given through google form. Each section has been explored and it has one to three suppliers' shops. The factors of delay in supplying material are special material required which needs time to obtain and affect the supplier’s profitability. Apart from that, the researcher’s found that a positive partnership with the contractor would result in a loyal customer. In conclusion, the researcher found that delays in supplying construction material do have effects on both supplier and their client which it is a not beneficiary toward both of them if the problems keep repeating where it could lead the supplier premises to shut down in the future since they lost their customer due to bad services.
