Abstract: Now a days, the current construction projects have become more complex and they consist of diversity of work. Since, construction has become extensive, the problem also exists in each aspect of construction projects. Even though there have been numerous systems developed for controlling the quality, the defects or problems still arise unexpectedly. Furthermore, customers these days have become more focus on the quality of the end products. This study investigates the quality control techniques during site inspection known as Inspection Test Plan (ITP), its implementation and effectiveness for construction projects in Malaysia. To achieve the objective, semi-structured interview was conducted among experienced practitioner in Malaysian construction projects. The interview was supported by 82 survey questionnaires from targeted respondents, namely; project managers, QA and QC managers, construction managers, site engineers and site supervisor.
