| dc.description.abstract | National economic growth relies heavily on the construction industry. As a result,
many jobs and income are created for overall society by the infrastructure provided
by it. In the construction industry, numerous disputes and litigation problems have
arisen about payments withheld, quality fraud, and data authentication. Researchers
and practitioners have recognized that construction project business processes lack
transparency and accountability (Rebecca Yang a, 2020). Supply chain developments
in the construction industry are being handicapped by a drop in mean value and a rise
in transactions. In construction supply chains, low trust has been an ongoing problem
for a long time, because of decentralized teamwork. Through digital technology, it
may be possible to achieve the criteria of centralized teamwork with high
transparency. It is the primary purpose of these technologies to increase trust,
visibility, and traceability as well as strengthen partnerships among key stakeholders
regarding the sustainability of the materials (Yang et al., 2020). Many applications of
this technology have been proposed and discovered recently in the construction
industry (Khawar Ahmed Khan, 2021).Proposing suggestions to implement
blockchain in the Sri Lankan construction industry and improving its productivity are
the main objectives of this thesis. | en_US |
