Abstract :

The research is undertaken to assess the performance of private contractors on road projects from the standpoint of government engineers and to develop an enhancement scheme on the basis of the findings of the investigation. Quantitative descriptive method was used in this study with 120 randomly, selected government project engineers and inspectors in district engineering offices in Davao City as respondents. Using an adapted survey questionnaire as primary data collection device and Mean and Analysis of Variance (ANOVa) as statistical tools, it was found that the performance of private contractors on road projects is very high level described as excellent. Further, no significant difference was noted when the level of performance of private contractor on road projects was analyzed by firm size and form of business organization. This suggests that the quality of services rendered by private contractors on road projects is not dependent on the amount of resource, number of employees or type of business ownership. Based on the foregoing results, a “Performance Quality Program” is proposed.
