  • Abstract:
    Procuring the correct materials at the right time and for the lowest cost is essential in construction. This fact underlines the importance of an optimized material procurement schedule integrated with the construction schedule/program. However, few studies examine the development of a material procurement schedule by integrating the construction schedule and optimizing material costs as well as any material shortage impact. In addition, budget constraints and maximum storage capacity are rarely captured in existing models for material procurement optimization. To address these shortcomings, an optimization model is developed using the nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) and executed in MATLAB R2017a. This model was implemented in a construction project that developed a material delivery schedule based on the budget constraints and maximum storage capacity for five majorly used building materials, resulting in a costs saving of 31.17% and a reduction in shortage impact of 83.47% compared with the actual delivery schedule. The developed model also incorporates the minimum order quantity and standard shipping size as well as avoiding surplus materials, leading to sustainable procurement of materials. Construction practitioners can use this model for procuring materials when facing budget constraints in a construction project with the lowest cost and least shortage and without excess or insufficient purchasing. The model will aid in completing the project within the stipulated time and budgeted cost.
