摘要：The objective of this study is to examine the impact of client, consultant and contractor related
factors on mismanagement in public and private contracts in the region of Indonesia. A structural
questionnaire is developed for the selected items after detailed investigation of present literature. A
final sample of 137 respondents associated with various contracts in the region of Indonesia is
collected with demographic details and regression analysis. It is observed that factors like lack of
strategy, failure to compile the documentary requirements, poor planning, delay in decision making,
financial issues, late payments, difficulty in getting work permits and lack of management
expertise are core issues, creating mismanagement in public and private contracts. In consultant
related factors, role of inexperienced consultant, poor planning, late of instructions from architects,
poor contract management, and poor-quality assurance are the key determinants of mismanagement
in contracts. While contractor related factors like poor planning and scheduling, late or improper
submission of contract, inadequate site supervision and inspection, poor construction methods,
weak leadership, and lack of communication between the parties are the key indicators of mismanagement
in contracts. As per significance, this study is found to be a reasonable addition in the
present literature from the context of contract management. Originality of the study covers the significant
findings for the policy makers in the field of public and private contracts. Study can be
reworked in future through better sampling, and addition of more factors related to materials, equipment
and labor causing for the poor delivery of the contracts.
