Abstract: 
The study evaluates the performance measurement of construction project by Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) in Awka-South Local Government Area of Anambra State. A survey design was adopted for the study. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. The population of the study comprised 180 construction professionals. The sample was made up of 124 construction professionals selected through simple random sampling technique. The questionnaire containing 30 items was used to collect data, and the data collected were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and T-test. The findings of the study revealed that the impact of evaluation by BPP on construction projects include contractors’ tendency to: do the right job the first time, complete work on time, identify problems and deficiencies, provide adequate training to employees, minimize interruptions of operations, use high quality materials, works as team players and provide correct documentation and invoices. The recommendations were made. One of the recommendations is that the construction industry should provide quality management guidelines and should be enforced by the consultants on projects. Stakeholders should be committed to quality management and adequate motivation should be given to workers.
