The study was initiated by the Singapore Contractors Association (SCAL) and Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCCI). The theme of the study was “effective measurement of construction productivity in Singapore”. The aim was to find and recommend ways to help the industry to improve productivity and enable the government to devise better policies and programmes. The scope was to understand factors underlying construction productivity in Singapore; ascertain how agencies and construction firms measure it; and explore the best way of measurement that would help the government to draw up policies to enable firms to improve their productivity performance. The study also considers current measures by government and industry, makes international comparisons and studies what more can be done.
