Abstract

The growth of the real estate industry in Bangladesh is seen as a prospective solution to the habitation problem of the exploded population, increased migration from rural to urban areas, among many others. This industry has also very significant contribution into the economy of the country. However, the success of this industry always depends on the procurement, transportation and project handover of the concerned real estate companies in the least possible time (i.e. Just In Time or JIT) and strict quality control (i.e. Total Quality Management or TQM) together with the effective and efficient management of capacity, demand, inventory, schedule, manufacturing, operation and above all, performance. Towards the end, the factors that affect the supply chain management (SCM) performance will be examined in this study from the perspectives of the REI of Bangladesh and necessary policy implications will be made to plan for an effective supply chain so that success and viability of the industry can be ensured.
