It started by determining the fundamental range of competencies that the professional able to understand and then applying the competencies in the right areas. Quantity Surveyors who work in the construction industry are also not left behind in having specific competencies while delegating their profession as cost and contract advisor in the construction projects. The objective of this paper is to review guidelines and policies regarding Quantity Surveyor competency from different professional bodies governing the Quantity Surveyors profession locally and globally. The document works as a process in evaluating documents where, eventually, produced empirical knowledge and developed understanding. The data obtained from this document analysis will help the researcher to come out with a conceptual model to be used in the mixed-method research approach later. The conclusion summarises that from six professional bodies governing the Quantity Surveyors profession, each professional body emphasized the competencies to be divided into a sub-category of mandatory skills, core competency, and optional competencies.
