My name is Yaasiin Namdarkhan (Student no. 213203049), currently registered for a BSc(Hons) Quantity Surveying degree at the Nelson Mandela University.

You are requested to participate in the quantitative phase of an Honours Treatise study: “Quantity surveyors acting as project managers”. You will be required to complete a questionnaire, related to skills and competencies required by quantity surveyors acting as project managers. This project will be conducted under the supervision of Mr Roy Cumberlege.

To participate, you will be required to agree or not agree in the first section of the electronic questionnaire to verify that you understand and agree to the conditions. Participation in the research is completely voluntary. Although your identity will at all times remain confidential, the results of the research study may be presented at scientific conferences or published in a peer-reviewed journal. It is expected that the questionnaire will take you approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Thank you very much for your time and participation in the study. Your participation is regarded as highly important as this will further reinforce the body of knowledge. If you have any questions pertaining to the study, please feel free to contact me on my email address: [email protected] or contact number: +27717238004.

Yours sincerely,
