Abstract

Recognising the importance of selecting a suitable procurement system, interest in procurement system selection has drawn immense attention in the construction sector. Despite the advanced decision supporting techniques and advocation of the importance of utilising PSS in the literature, PSS implementation appears to be at the nascent stage, with extant studies too fragmented to reveal the practical implications. This paper provides a holistic picture of existing research and identifies future research agenda in procurement system selection (PSS) within the context of construction engineering and management (CEM). An extensive literature review of a total of 198 peer-reviewed journal papers, using a mixed quantitative and qualitative method for integration and analysis, is carried out to shed light on the trend to explore collaborative procurements. Accordingly, a research framework with action points at industry, organisation, and project levels is proposed.
