Abstract
While green development has been spread largely in construction industry in Malaysia, there is still gap in integration of green development and project management. It is undeniable that many people in the industry are alert to this green technology. However, some of them are refused to apply green building technologies due to several reasons. Green concept is practically not accept widely in industry as many developers are refuse to apply it in their projects. Hence, the aim of this study is to determine the green practices that need to be done and added in traditional project management from stakeholder perception so it will speed up their acceptance of green technology in construction industry. Method used in determining the practices and analyze the result is the 5-point Likert scale and SPSS software. The result show that only 22 out of 48 practices are accepted by all stakeholders to be implemented in green project management. Even all practices that are identified in the review are realistic and most of them are implemented in other countries, it doesn’t mean that it can simply be implemented in Malaysia. This research also proposed list of green practices that are realistic and practicable by taking into consideration of all stakeholders’ perspective.
