Abstract: This paper examines the intricacies of Malaysia’s flood forecast and warning programme, highlighting the significant challenges posed by recurrent flooding and the need for robust solutions. Utilizing a project management framework, this study identifies key problems such as inadequate infrastructure, data integration issues, and community engagement barriers. Leveraging established project management methodologies, the paper proposes strategic solutions designed to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of flood prediction and response systems. By integrating technology with stakeholder collaboration and risk management practices, the proposed solutions aim to optimize resource allocation, improve decision-making processes, and ensure timely communication. The paper concludes with recommendations for policy updates and future research to bolster Malaysia’s resilience to flood-related disasters, ultimately safeguarding communities and minimizing economic impacts.
