Abstract

Along with the pace of development of road infrastructure in Indonesia, improving the quality of road construction project execution is becoming a concern of the government and related stakeholders. The poor project execution process of national road construction certainly has an impact on the failure of the construction products as well as the increase in work accident rates. This paper reviews the government regulation on the practices of quality control procedures and quality assurance system, and safety control, to provide an evaluation and then a recommendation for stakeholders on the effective implementation of quality control management in road construction projects. Quality documentations must be available, containing quality targets to be achieved throughout the construction process. Quality control and safety control must ensure that all components of road construction are thoroughly secured to meet the specified quality and safety requirements. Far fewer demands are made on the quality assurance system, which both the government and construction companies must develop to ensure that the quality control and safety control processes are sufficiently targeted and effective. The results of the review can be used to stimulate the implementation of quality control and quality assurance of road construction projects integrated with occupational health and safety in order to build qualified road infrastructure projects, which function according to their life span. The review’s significance contributes to the knowledge in the area of quality control management of construction projects. The review will help improve awareness among the policymakers and construction practitioners to enable them to be consistent in achieving the quality-safety of infrastructure project delivery.
