About Me

Management in Construction Research Association (MiCRA) was established in 2002 by IIUM in collaboration with USM, UiTM, UTM, UM and UPM with the hope to bring together all persons researching on management issues in the built environment to elevate this community to a greater heights through its annual series of conferences. The conference had been held annually without fail since the year 2002. This year, commemorating MiCRA’s 10th anniversary, the Procurement and Project Delivery Systems Research Unit, Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design, International Islamic University Malaysia in collaboration with MiCRA will be hosting this event. The annual conference and meeting aim to help participants (members and non-members alike), to network and keep abreast with the latest research efforts in aspects of management in construction and related areas. It also serves as a nurturing platform for research students and new researchers to present their work and obtain feedback from established researchers.
