AN EFFECTIVE APPROACH TO PREPARE BILL OF QUANTITIES FOR
Preface
There is an urgent need for the construction industry to address the issues of
environmental problems arising from the accelerated infrastructure develop-
ment. In this aspect, Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR) Malaysia has moved forward
in defining the environmental requirements by incorporating Environmental
Management Plan (EMP) into tender documents. However, the success and
effectiveness of this approach does not rely solely on the EMP but also on
the need to enhance the commitment and awareness of all parties involved,
particularly the developers/contractors, designers, consultants, academicians
and decision makers.
This Arahan Teknik provides changes to the items in the Tender Document
with regards to the Condition of Contracts, Instructions to Tenderers,
Specification to Environmental Protection and Enhancements, Preamble to
Bill of Quantities, Bill of Quantities and Drawings.
The draft version of this Arahan Teknik had been presented during the
National Engineering Conference of Awam 2001 organized by Universiti
Sains Malaysia in February 2002, Seminar on Best Earthworks Management
Practices in Construction Industry which was jointly organized by
Construction Industry Development Board, Department of Environment and
JKR Malaysia in March 2002, and during the Assistant Directors (Road)
Meeting in Mac 2002. It was also presented during the Workshop on
Environmental Consideration in Road Projects in April 2002 organized by the
Road Engineering Association of Malaysia (REAM) and JKR Malaysia.
