| Abstract | Because of the increased project complexity and the highly competitive nature of the construction industry, a construction project often is executed by several subcontractors. Hence, effectively managing the numerous subcontractors involved in a construction project becomes a crucial challenge for the general contractor in ensuring timely project completion with acceptable quality. Managing subcontractors does not simply involve asking them to allocate resources (labor, material, and machinery/equipment) into the jobsite whenever an activity is scheduled, and then pushing them to speed up the work without a clear consciousness of schedule risk. Factors (or uncertainties) such as weather, labor, site conditions, material delivery, and equipment breakdown can influence the time performance of subcontractors, affecting total project duration. But almost General Contractor is lack of management sub-contractor and it caused many difficulties and conflicts during performance, management of projects. The most difficulty of sub-contractor management is deviation scope of work between sub-contractors, controlling schedule and interfacing between subcontractors. In managing project subcontractors, a general contractor must determine the items of work to be subcontracted, select subcontractors, set subcontract agreements, and control the subcontractors during construction.
