Unlike the conventional approach, the adoption of IBS required a strong cash flow among the project stakeholders especially the contractors in order to ensure project on progress.Current practice, unfortunately, some of the IBS projects are still use the traditional payment method (which is based on in-situ progress claim).This practice is one of the main barriers that affect to the IBS implementation in Malaysia.Therefore, the purpose of this paper through literature review is to explore the issue of payment mechanism in order to enhance the adoption of Malaysian IBS projects in future.
