Abstract
A nation's construction industry plays a pivotal role in the nation's development.
While the arrangement and organisation of participants for construction procurement is
critical to project delivery, participants are often faced with a maze of possible procurement
paths. This study used 94 construction projects in Nigeria that were executed or being
executed with the traditional or integrated project procurement methods. A logistic
regression analysis was conducted using dependent and independent variables. A model
for predicting the chosen procurement method evolved from this analysis. The developed
model was significant, and its robustness was validated. The model's predictive use is
recommended for projects in the research environment. Further examination of ethical and
cultural issues with respect to construction procurement in the research environment is
recommended. Furthermore, a similar study should be done in countries with similar or
dissimilar characteristics to elicit the effects of geographical and cultural differences
