Abstract

The significant increase in Indonesian construction sector activity nowadays is also influenced by government financing for infrastructure projects. Therefore, the government needs to ensure that the infrastructure projects are consistently constructed along the project life-cycle. Phases of the infrastructure project life-cycle implemented in the Ministry of Public Works and Housing consist of 1) planning, 2) selection of service providers, 3) construction processes, and 4) construction product hand-over. Data collection using three rounds of Delphi Study was undertaken to empirically test the level of implementation of the project life-cycle indicators, which are used as standards to construct infrastructure projects. The respondents of the studies came from sectors who were executing infrastructure projects in the areas of Cipta Karya, Bina Marga, Sumber Daya Air, and Penyediaan Perumahan. The results of the studies concluded that the sectors have understood and implemented most of the indicators, however, different levels of implementation have existed along with the barriers of the implementation. From the studies, profiles of the execution of infrastructure project life-cycle were provided as references for the government to evaluate the performance of the sectors, as well as to take corrective actions to improve their performance.

Highlights

  • The Ministry of Public Works and Housing of Indonesia had been allocated 106.9 trillion IDR, making it the largest recipient of government funding in 2018

  • Poor construction end-product performance reflects the low performance of service providers, as well as the weakness of monitoring system during construction implementation which is managed by service users in particular, and the weakness of construction quality control system in general

  • The groups of experts are working on Cipta Karya – sector regarding building construction, Bina Marga – sector regarding road and bridge construction, Sumber Daya Air – sector regarding water facilities construction, and Penyediaan Perumahan – sector regarding house and settlement construction, in Bali Province, North Sulawesi Province, and Centre Capital of Jakarta Province

Summary

Introduction

The Ministry of Public Works and Housing of Indonesia had been allocated 106.9 trillion IDR, making it the largest recipient of government funding in 2018. Along with the increased development of the national infrastructure projects, Indonesia's construction industry is facing tight competition in both domestic and global construction markets; concerning that the infrastructure project is an open construction market. The quality of infrastructure project execution the project results are of concern to the government and other stakeholders in addressing this issue, in providing qualified and sustainable infrastructure products. The Indonesian government has serious questions relating to the poor construction processes that have an impact on the failure of several infrastructure products. Poor construction end-product performance reflects the low performance of service providers, as well as the weakness of monitoring system during construction implementation which is managed by service users in particular, and the weakness of construction quality control system in general
