    <dct:description>&lt;p&gt;This study was mainly set out with a general purpose to assess the quality management&lt;br&gt; practices and major quality management challenges in road construction projects at AACRA.&lt;br&gt; To achieve its objective, the study employed both descriptive and explanatory research and&lt;br&gt; both primary and secondary data were used. Questionnaires, interview, and document review&lt;br&gt; were, therefore, used as data collection tools. Furthermore, it employed purposive sampling&lt;br&gt; techniques to draw its samples. The survey questionnaire was designed based on the&lt;br&gt; literature and on the information collected through the document review of the project.&lt;br&gt; The survey questionnaire was distributed to 60 project implementation team members who&lt;br&gt; were selected purposively among them 55 respondents were responded, which represented a&lt;br&gt; response rate of 91.67%. The data gathered through the questionnaire was analyzed by&lt;br&gt; Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The generated data was analyzed using tables,&lt;br&gt; frequency, percentage, and multiple regression approaches. The result of the study indicated&lt;br&gt; that AACRA does not employ all stages of quality management process, tools and techniques.&lt;br&gt; Since they use only Inspection are found to be the major quality management tools and&lt;br&gt; techniques used to control quality of project. Qualified and experiences personnel, top&lt;br&gt; management support, communication with stakeholders, quality of materials and equipments&lt;br&gt; used in the project construction and conformance to specification are identified as the&lt;br&gt; top factors in the determinant of the quality of road construction projects&lt;/p&gt;</dct:description>
