Abstract: Abstract Choosing an appropriated procurement system is a complex and challenging task. A set of up-to-date procurement selection criteria (PSC) is critical to formalise the procurement system selection. The literature of procurement systems and selection criteria, however, is still relatively fragmented and remains unclear for how exactly PSC are identified. A systematic literature review of forty-three peer-reviewed journal articles from 1998 to 2017 relating to construction procurement system selection process is carried out to understand the existing theoretical and practical foundations of the field. The research aims to identify existing procurement system criteria, and how these criteria can be identified. The key findings are: (1) PSC are evolved to match the promotion of emerging procurement systems in the construction industry; (2) research topics have been moving to more complex areas; and (3) the challenges in identifying criteria in practice are identified. This paper provides the foundation and impetus for further investigation into procurement system selection practice.
