Abstract
The construction industry leads the national economy in developing countries. It involves industrial requirements, such as developing technologies, related expertise, demand variability, high production speed and progress. Firms in the industry use subcontractors to produce fast, effective solutions. To overcome the demand on special expertise, advanced equipment, and huge investment cost, letting out work to subcontractors has been a norm in construction industry. large presence of subcontracting poses challenges to contractors, client and their project management teams to manage such a large, diverse and fragmented group of subcontractors. Success of a construction project is essentially depending on the ability of general contractor to select the appropriate subcontractor during bidding process, and the sufficient management of subcontractor during construction.
