Abstract: This paper aims to examine the relation between the performance of construction contract administration process groups (CCAPG) and the contract administration performance and establish a construction contract administration performance index (CCAPI). Through an online questionnaire,306 respondents participated in this research to rate the importance of CCAPG on CCA performance and the data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The Reliability testing is conducted using alpha coefficient Alpha >0.7, the validity testing of the structural models is conducted with Construct Reliability (CR) of value >0.7 and Average Variance Extracted (AVE) of value >0.5. Whilst the hypotheses are tested using Standardized Factor Loading of values > 0.7 and Critical Ratio (t-value) of value >1.96 and Squared Multiple Correlations (R2). The results show that the influence of CCAPG on CCAPI is positive and significant. Considering the findings, it is concluded that the performance of CCAPG almost importantly contributes equally to the contract administration performance. This research advances from previous research in its application to quantifying the effect of CCAPG, which is a new approach.
