| Summary: | Nowadays, the construction industry has negatively affected the local environment and community through the noise, air, water, and land pollution. The implementation of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) has been recognized as a green approach in reducing environmental issues in the construction industry. However, GSCM had no significant effect on athletic performance because not many company owners or managers had implemented green supply chain management in companies. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the challenges to implement GSCM concepts in civil engineering construction. Through a questionnaire survey, fifty respondents from civil engineering companies at Sepang and Hulu Langat Selangor participated. The findings were analysed using SPSS software and the Relative Importance Index (RII). Different in perspective and culture, financial limitations and fear of failure were internal challenges against implementing GSCM. Meanwhile, the external challenges were a lack of support and guidelines from the government, not having an engagement of management from third parties, and not having actual environmental measurements of the GSCM system. This study is significant for apprehending the challenges and ineffectiveness of GSCM practices in Malaysia. © 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
