For many years the construction industry in China, combined with the poor project management skills of the enterprises, resulted in low-quality work and the late completion of projects. Although great efforts have been achieved, such as maintenance of law, applying total quality management (TQC) and ISO9000s, a number of quality management problems still remain unsolved. In this paper the authors made a survey of several construction projects; aim at analyzing the typical procurement of Chinese construction project, and make clear the responsibility allotment relation of the client, the architect, the supervisor, the construction manager, the general contractor and the sub-contractors.
