Abstract

The study is aimed at an investigating into the implementation of Project Quality Management Plan on Building Projects in Awka Anambra State, Nigeria, with a view to establishing the level of awareness and advocate the benefits associated with implementation of Quality Management Plan on building projects. This study adopted the use of structured questionnaires and literature reviews. The sample size was 250 building site managers, to elicit relevant data, and were analyzed by using simple percentage and Principal Component Analysis (PCA), using SPSS 23 software. The result indicate that construction practitioners are aware of PQMP in Awka, Anambra State and often apply the document to all building projects. The top benefits of implementing project quality management plan, are that it increases project efficiency and saves cost. At the end of the work, I recommend that Anambra State government should domesticate the national building code. Builders should be given the desired opportunity to manage the building production process in order to achieve efficient, cost saving, and quality projects in Anambra State.
