profession less developed in Indonesia. Therefore, this research was carried out to investigate
the current scenario of Quantity Surveying practice in Indonesia. The objectives of this research
is to identify Quantity Surveying practice in Indonesian construction industry and to identify

Quantitative method by using an online questionnaire to obtain the data. The questionnaire has
been conducted and has been distributed to Quantity Surveyors who have registered with the
Indonesian Association of Quantity Surveyors (IQSI). The data obtained from the
questionnaire has been analyzed using Relative Importance Index (RII). The outcome of this

majority of the members working as Quantity Surveyor in their company, the main factor that
affecting less development of Quantity Surveying in Indonesia is lack of institution that provide

the information to the public regarding Quantity Surveying, and majority of the members felt
it is really important to open Quantity Surveying program at Universities in Indonesia. |
