This thesis investigated the levels of infrastructure construction project stakeholders’ involvement, their influence on quality outcomes, and how improved participation can enhance not only quality outcomes but overall project delivery success. Understanding the current engagement mechanisms and the innate challenges provided a basis for developing a framework, the Quality Excellence Framework (QEF), a framework that provides the foundation for successful quality outcomes, overall project success, continuous improvement and innovation. The research, conducted over three phases, comprised qualitative and quantitative analyses. The final phase, the Focus Group Discussion (FGD), was an endorsement of the QEF by a panel of industry experts.

The following research builds on the existing project management success and critical success factor research by focusing on the social mechanisms used by project managers and project teams to achieve success. Through analysis of previous literature five criteria for success are determined and the critical success factor themes of personnel and communication emerge. Study One uses semi-structured interviews with ten current or former construction project managers to develop a conceptual model of six antecedents to the previously identified critical success factor themes. The unit of measure is the project and not the project manager which allowed for ten interviews to provide insights into twenty projects, the ten most successful and the ten least successful of the interviewees careers. Those interviews provided six constructs or antecedents that lead to effective communication and project personnel. The personnel constructs are; planning, choosing, and retaining. The communication constructs are frequency, understanding, and inclusivity. Study Two uses semi-structured interviews with twenty current or former construction project managers to determine the causal social mechanisms that lead from the antecedents to the critical success factor themes. Through recording, transcribing, coding, and analyzing the interviewee’s responses project managers and project teams use similar mechanisms to achieve the critical success factor themes. Knowing those mechanisms will benefit practicing project managers.

Full textAbstract:
The problem of delays in the construction industry is a global phenomenon and the construction industry in Brunei Darussalam is no exception. The goal of all parties involved in construction projects – owners, contractors, engineers and consultants in either the public or private sector is to successfully complete the project on schedule, within planned budget, with the highest quality and in the safest manner. Construction projects are frequently influenced by either success factors that help project parties reach their goal as planned, or delay factors that stifle or postpone project completion.
The purpose of this research is to identify success and delay factors which can help project parties reach their intended goals with greater efficiency. This research extracted seven of the most important success factors according to the literature and seven of the most important delay factors identified by project parties, and then examined correlations between them to determine which were the most influential in preventing project delays.
This research uses a comprehensive literature review to design and conduct a survey to investigate success and delay factors and then obtain a consensus of expert opinion using the Delphi methodology to rank the most needed critical success factors for Brunei construction projects. A specific survey was distributed to owners, contractors and engineers to examine the most critical delay factors. A general survey was distributed to examine the correlation between the identified delay factors and the seven most important critical success factors selected. A consensus of expert opinion using the Delphi methodology was used to rank the most needed critical success factors for Brunei building construction.
Data was collected and evaluated by statistical methods to identify the most significant causes of delay and to measure the strength and direction of the relationship between critical success factors and delay factors in order to examine project parties’ evaluation of projects’ critical success and delay factors, and to evaluate the influence of critical success factors on critical delay factors.
A relative importance index has been used to determine the relative importance of the various causes of delays. A one and two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been used to examine how the group or groups evaluated the influence of the critical success factors in avoiding or preventing each of the delay factors, and which success factors were perceived as most influential in avoiding or preventing critical delay factors. Finally the Delphi method, using consensus from an expert panel, was employed to identify the seven most critical success factors used to avoid the delay factors, and thereby improve project performance.

Full textAbstract:
Risk is everywhere and it is something which we face in everyday life. Same is the case with projects. Projects are complex and risks are inherent in projects. It is not unusual for unexpected events to occur and for uncertainty to emerge in projects. These events contribute to project riskswhich require to be dealt with so that projects could continue to run effectively. The need for good project risk management is therefore especially important as it could determine the successof the project or otherwise. However, research on the factors that make project risk response successful has been neglected. Contemporary researchers focused on risk management phases other than risk response. Our main focus in this paper is to indicate determinants of project risk response success and their relative importance in the construction industry of Sweden. The construction industry is considered as construction projects are not only important but they identify tangibly with the physical outputs of projects and exemplify the uncertainty and risks that are present in this type of projects. Sweden is chosen as the context of our study owing to the immense contributions of the construction sector towards the country’s growth and GDP. On thebasis of extensive literature review, we have come up with the determinants for project risk response success and developed a proposed conceptual model. A quantitative study is undertaken with the administration of questionnaires. The empirical data is gathered from project managers in the construction industry of Sweden for this purpose. Project managers are selected as respondents as they would be the ones controlling and managing projects, along with responding to the various risks subjected to in projects. Hypotheses have been generated for this research and the results are analyzed to determine if these hypotheses are to be accepted or rejected. For data analysis, SPSS is used. The results are drawn by the use of statistical tools like ANOVA, correlation and t-tests. These outcomes will lead to the conclusion of our study as to what the factors are that determine project risk response success and their relative importance. A revised conceptual model is finally developed to address the findings of our research. This research found a set of seven success factors which can be used as a guideline for project risk response success. These factors are (1) Team competency and skills, (2) Effective communication, (3) Active leadership, (4) Negotiation and coordination, (5)Hierarchical structure, (6) Behaviour and (7) Empowerment. These determinants of project risk response success can be generalized to the construction industry in Sweden. Keywords: project risk, project risk management, uncertainty, unexpected events, risk response, construction industry.

Maddison, A. "The impact of critical success factors on government IT projects : a case study of the Defence Information Infrastructure Programme." Thesis, Cranfield University, 2014. http://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/8766.
Full textAbstract:
Government IT mega-projects often end in costly failure, despite attempts to identify those Critical Success Factors (CSFs) that lead to project success. This raises questions about whether these CSFs are understood, applied and, if so, whether they are having an impact on the management and subsequent performance of government IT mega-projects. The literature review compared CSFs from the generic and IT project management literature to find that they are broadly similar. CSF frameworks were then assessed to find a measure of the impact of CSFs and a measure of ‘performance’ was also defined. CSFs were then identified from fifteen reports on IT and information infrastructure projects and verified against the CSFs identified in the literature to produce a synthesised list of twelve CSFs. The understanding, application and impact of these CSFs were examined through a case study of the MoD’s Defence Information Infrastructure (DII) Programme, a government IT mega-project to provide a more integrated and coherent Defence infrastructure. It was evident that the CSFs were recognised and they appeared to have been understood within the DII Programme. However, the extent to which they have been applied is variable with differing effect. Therefore, the impact that CSFs have had on the management of the DII Programme is debatable. There were areas where the project could have been managed better and, therefore, could be performing better, suggesting that the overall success of the project is potentially at risk. The overarching conclusion of this study is that, in terms of the management of the DII Programme, the impact of the identified CSFs is variable and, where they are not applied, there is an adverse effect on its performance, suggesting a causal relationship. More generally, not applying generic CSFs to project management is likely to lead to failure, but is unlikely to assure success. Unique projects operating in highly specific and complex contexts require more contingent solutions. As a result of these conclusions, further case studies are suggested, along with further study into government and MoD IT project management and the management of trust in contractual relationships.

Full textAbstract:
In developing countries, 60% of project management professionals appear to lack knowledge that timely completion, budget fidelity, and high quality are critical success factors for completion of construction initiatives. Based on the theories of iron triangle, accident causation, scientific management, and strategic management, the purpose of this correlational study was to examine the relationship between project budget and the independent variables of time, quality, safety, environmental impact, and site disputes in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. One hundred and sixteen project managers, randomly selected from the population of construction professionals in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana, completed the survey entitled the Six Key Performance Indicators developed by Ngacho and Das (2014). The results of the multiple linear regression analysis indicated a weak positive correlation exists between the independent variables (time, quality, safety, environmental impact, and site disputes) and project budget, F(1, 114) = 37.08, p < 0.001. Time recorded the highest beta (β = .50) followed by site dispute (β = .29), environment (β = .22), quality (β = .06), and safety (β = .04). Attention to key performance indicators associated with time, dispute, and environmental impact could improve project outcomes in the Ghanaian construction sector. The study findings could be useful to improve the quality of projects and may benefit the lives of professionals and community members in the area.

Full textAbstract:
Broadly discussed in the literature the concept of project success still remains ambiguously defined. The well known success criteria like time, cost and quality does not provide any practical nformation of achieving of project objectives in an efficient way. Identification of main drivers of project success gain particular importance for companies in the light of highly competitive environment.
Housing construction projects represent one of the largest sector in construction industry and Ukrainian housing construction industry is considered to have one of the highest rate of return in EU. However the amount of research related to Ukrainian market is limited to few general economy overviews published by such organizations like World Bank and big consulting firms.
The main aim of this research is identification of the most influential success factors from the 26 factors identified in existing project management literature. The analysis was performed in a highly profitable housing construction industry with a focus on Ukrainian market peculiarities.
A questionnaire survey was sent to 110 experienced housing construction project managers and 26 responses there received. Based on the findings of the questionnaire success factors were ranked according to their impact on project success. In addition success factors interrelationship was studied in order to study the importance of each factor in depth.
The findings of the research contributed both to project management field of study and Ukrainian construction market research. A primary and support areas of success factors were identified which might serve as a practical guide for managing housing construction projects in Ukraine. The most important success factors were defined: economic environment, project manager’s experience and qualification of project team.
Project managers in housing construction industry in Ukraine would probably consider being more aware of the dominance of environment and human recourses related success factors. Additionally, success factors interrelation matrix might be used as a success diffusion map.
Further research might be also essential in this area like studying different types of project and expanding the focus of current study or analysing the importance of success factors on different stages of the project life cycle.

Full textAbstract:
The definition of a project is that an individual or group of individuals carries out a work that results in a unique product or service. What is usually discussed in both the media and in the construction industry is the type of project that you can talk about. In this study, this is called conventional construction projects. There are also projects that you are not allowed to talk about and that must be kept secret for various reasons. These can, for example, be based on protecting national interests. In these projects, integrity is one of the most important parameters to keep track of from a management perspective. This study examines the work methodology in this area of the Swedish construction industry. The study is based on traditional project management theory and begins with a review of concepts such as critical success factors (CSF), the distinction between confidentiality and conventionality, key performance indicators (KPI) and the classic iron triangle. The study's question is whether these concepts appear and are applied differently in confidential construction projects compared to conventional ones. Are there any activities that are of utmost importance that they are carried out for a confidential project to be considered successful? The study was conducted as a qualitative, abductive study where information was obtained through semi-structured interviews. In total, eleven interviews were conducted with individuals who participated in some form of confidential construction project. All respondents have represented construction contractors during their time in confidential construction projects. The conclusion after the completed analysis of the interviews shows that confidential projects do not differ significantly in terms of project structure. On the other hand, this type of project is characterized by a much higher degree of accuracy regarding planning and implementation than a comparable conventional construction project.Definitionen av ett projekt är att en enskild eller grupp av individer genomför ett arbete som resulterar i en, på något sätt, unik produkt eller tjänst. Vad som vanligtvis diskuteras i både media och i byggbranschen är den typ av projekt som du faktiskt får prata om. I denna studie kallas detta för konventionella byggprojekt. Det finns även projekt som du inte får prata om och som måste hållas hemliga av olika anledningar. Dessa kan exempelvis vara grundade i nationella skyddsintressen. I dessa projekt är integritet en av de viktigaste parametrarna att hålla koll på ur ett ledningsperspektiv. Denna studie undersöker arbetsmetodiken inom detta område i byggbranschen. Studien tar avstamp från traditionell projektledningsteori, och inleds med en genomgång av koncept såsom kritiska framgångsfaktorer (CSF), distinktionen mellan konfidentialitet och konventionalitet, nyckeltal (KPI) samt den klassiska järntriangeln. Studiens frågeställning är om dessa begrepp ter sig och tillämpas annorlunda i konfidentiella byggprojekt jämfört med konventionella. Är det några aktiviteter som är av yttersta vikt att de genomförs för att ett konfidentiellt projekt ska anses vara framgångsrikt? Studien har genomförts som en kvalitativ, abduktiv studie där informationsinhämtningen har skett genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. Totalt har ett antal om elva intervjuer genomförts med individer som deltagit inom någon form av konfidentiellt byggprojekt. Samtliga respondenter har representerat byggentreprenörer under deras tid i konfidentiella byggprojekt. Slutsatsen efter den genomförda analysen av intervjuerna visar att konfidentiella projekt inte skiljer sig avsevärt mycket sett till struktur på projektet. Däremot karakteriseras denna typ av projekt av en mycket högre grad av noggrannhet avseende planering och genomförande än ett jämförbart konventionellt byggprojekt.

Full textAbstract:
To solve the conflict between limited fiscal funds and increasing demands to strengthen infrastructure construction, Public Private Partnership (PPP) was introduced by the Chinese government as an effective approach to make use of private investment to implement infrastructure projects. To provide services or facilities for public use, in PPP, participants pool their skills and resources while at the same time sharing the risks and rewards. The application of PPP could not only ease the government’s financial pressure, but also improve the efficiency of infrastructure construction and ensure the service quality of projects.
Although PPP produces these benefits, the complexity and long-term features of PPP projects expose participants to more risks than in traditional projects. Therefore, risk management of participants is critical to the success of PPP projects. As an innovative procurement approach involves a variety of stakeholders over a long time span, it is necessary to investigate how to appraise and recognize PPP project success. In addition, although risk management has attracted much attention, few studies examine the detailed link between various dimensions of risk management and PPP project success. This research therefore intends to fill these two gaps. Compared with countries in the West, PPP was introduced into China relatively recently. A comparative study was employed in this research in order to understand the Chinese situation and to make use of the experience of other countries to critique PPP project performance in Mainland China.
In this study, a two-pronged research program—comprising quantitative and qualitative approaches—was used to test and validate the tripartite theoretical model which was set up based on Transaction Cost Economics (TCE), Resource-based View (RBV) and Relational Exchange Theory (RET). In the quantitative study, questionnaire surveys were conducted concurrently in Mainland China and other places. Hierarchical Multiple Regression was used to explore the relationships posited in the research framework. To provide supportive and complementary evidence to the quantitative data, a case study of a PPP project in Mainland China was undertaken. Open-ended interviews and the thematic analysis technique were adopted in the case study.
Taken together, the findings indicated that although the facets of risk management significantly affect project success, there are subtle different influences on different stakeholders’ benefits. For example, the uncertainty of social issues and economic issues will affect public partner’s benefits while the uncertainty of political & institutional issues, economic issues and project specific issues are directly influence private partner’s benefits. To maximize their own interests, different stakeholders should pay more attention to the influencing factors that are specifically associated with them. Meanwhile, it is demonstrated that individual efforts on risk management also contribute to the benefits of other stakeholders as well as to the whole industry development. In addition, the comparative study suggests that public partners of PPP projects in Mainland China could refer to the risk management experience of public partners from other countries to make an appropriate risk management commitment and better manage risks. On the other hand, private partners of PPP projects in Mainland China need to pay more attention to the macro-control of the government so as to protect their rights and interests.published_or_final_version

Full textAbstract:
Enterprises of any size need to face different challenges which might be specific to their environment or their structure. Therefore, to overcome these barriers each company owner needs to take into consideration suitable ways through which the available and potential resources can be best use in dealing with the business context. Issues like, market breakthrough and acceptance, competition, economic environment, can prove to be critical for a small business which bases its activities on innovation type of services and products. By studding the specific context of small businesses with an entrepreneurial and innovative character, we try to address in this thesis one of the particular ways through which these type of companies can face challenges within their environment: by involving different categories of external support in their projects and business activities. While the need for capital, information and co-operation is growing along with the small business development, we also have chosen to focus our attention on three types of support infrastructures: finance, information and network. Then, each of these support aspects is analysed in connection with project critical success factors in order to establish a certain relevance that external assistance can have on project success. The case studies are based on five small companies within a Swedish incubator in the region of Västerbotten county. As for our study we consider governmental agencies, universities and Science Parks, as three representative support agents, we decided to take closely analyse one of them, and so we looked at the policies and environment of the incubator which hosts the five small companies. And so, Uminova Innovation and its incubator, which are part of Uminova Science Park, could be considered as the overall case study framework. Then, the outcomes of this thesis highlight the perceived influence of the three support infrastructures: finance, information and networks on the business projects, activities and processes. Although the particular business characteristics have their own impact when it comes to the types of support each studied company choose to approach, a general link has been noticed between a certain type of business activities or plans and the involved support. As this study brings up particular matters which engage both small business and the business support agents, we believe that the outcomes of the analysis and the broad theoretical framework would be a suitable reference for practitioners of support policies as well as for small business owners. Therefore, the actions and policies of these actors can be further developed by taking in consideration the critical success factors which have a direct implication in enhancing a particular support that further can contribute to project success.

were investigated from a resource based perspective which put forward intangible assets of the company. To achieve the objectives, a questionnaire survey was administered to 73 Turkish contractors and the data obtained from 354 projects that were held during the last five years were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). It was hypothesized in this study that construction company performance is influenced by the resources and capabilities within the company, the long-term and short-term strategies adopted by the company, the strength of the relationships of the company with other parties involved in construction projects, external factors and project management competencies. A structural equation model was set up to measure the seven latent variables through their constituent variables and to see if the hypothesized relationships exist. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that, this research has introduced a method to measure performance both in subjective (qualitative) and the objective (quantitative) terms. The strong path coefficients between the constructs of the model are an indication that, after decades in pursuit of finding ways to improve the performance of construction companies, subjective dimensions of performance have proven to be as effective as the traditional objective dimensions.

Purpose: This research reviews the Project Implementation Profile (PIP) and explores its relevance to Upgrading Informal Settlements Programme (UISP) type projects in Cape Town. The research aims to: • Identify the most common PIP Critical Success Factors (CSF) for UISP projects, • Compare the common PIP Critical Success Factors (CSF) for UISP projects to the Construction Sector CSF • Evaluate if the PIP tool is applicable to UISP projects. • Determine if there any other critical success factors that need to be added to the CSF list that is critical to the UISP Project success Approach: A literature review was conducted to assist in identifying the common CSF in the Constructions Sector. A survey questionnaire was sent out to relevant UISP Project Managers. The survey questionnaire was based on the PIP questionnaire with additional questions regarding to the effectiveness of the PIP tool on UISP projects. The intent of the survey questionnaire is firstly to establish the common CSF for UISP projects and then evaluate the PIP effectiveness on UISP projects. Findings: Based on the research results, it was found that the high scoring CSF for UISP projects were Project Mission, Client Consultation, Technical Tasks, Monitoring and Feedback, Personal. When the high scoring CSF was compared to the Literature Based Construction Sector CSF, the following common CSF was established: Monitoring and Feedback, Client Consultation and Technical Tasks. Practical Implications: This research will give an indication of the high and low scoring CSF relevant to UISP projects, which project managers and Managers in the Human Settlements industry can use to evaluate their UISP or Breaking New Ground (BNG) housing projects. Furthermore, the PIP tool may be utilised more frequently as a project quality success assurance tool in the organisation. The PIP tool has been tested and verified in a number of different industries in previous studies but never in its application to UISP or BNG projects.

Thesis, KTH, Fastigheter och byggande, 2021. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-298227.
Full textAbstract:
Stockholm is one of the fastest growing conurbations in Europe, to accommodate for the increased population and urban growth, the current subway system needs to be extended. Appropriately, a joint initiative regarding housing and infrastructure development was signed in January 2014 by the Swedish government, Stockholm County Council and the afflicted municipalities Stockholm, Solna, Nacka and Järfälla. The joint initiative, the 2013 Stockholm negotiation, presented an extension of the current subway system with a total length of 19,6 km and 11 new stations in Stockholm, Solna, Nacka and Järfälla. Large-scale infrastructure projects often suffer from cost and time overruns. The Stockholm subway construction is no exception and has since the project started collected a delay equivalent of five years for Järfälla and Nacka, and a cost overrun of SEK 9,3 billion. The aim of this thesis is to objectively identify the critical delay factors of the subway tunnel construction in Stockholm and unveil the delay implication on property developers with housing projects in the adjacent areas to the new stations. The thesis will be limited to mainly focus on the extension to Järfälla and Nacka. To investigate the research questions, a systematic integration of quantitative and qualitative data has been collected through literature reviews, 9 interviews with the client, designers, consultants and a survey with 13 property developers. This thesis has identified one critical delay factor, linked to the poor project performance regarding the time overruns. With support from the literature review, interviews and surveys, the observed delay can be described as a consequence of political-economic explanations. The cause for the delay is rooted in the inaccurate estimations and unrealistic expectations presented in the 2013 Stockholm negotiation. Thus, the project delay is to be categorized as non- acceptable, due to a five-year prolonged time plan. Additional delay factors have beenidentified but are not to be viewed as critical. This thesis has also identified a general frustrationamongst the developers in Järfälla and Nacka as they have perceived negative implications as a consequence of the delay of the subway extension.Stockholm är en av de snabbast växande storstadsregionerna i Europa och för att tillgodose den ökade tillväxten behöver regionen utveckla sin infrastruktur och kollektivtrafik. I januari 2014 undertecknades en överenskommelse, avseende utveckling av bostäder och infrastruktur, mellan regeringen, Stockholm Läns Landsting, Stockholm- och Solna stad, Nacka samt Järfälla kommun. Avtalet benämns som 2013 års Stockholmsförhandling och omfattar en utbyggnad om 11 nya tunnelbanestationer i Stockholm, Solna, Nacka och Järfälla, med en total spårlängd om 19,6 km. Stora infrastrukturprojekt har historiskt sett blivit försenade och haft budgetöverskridande projektkostnader. Tunnelbaneutbyggnaden mot Järfälla och Nacka har båda blivit försenade med fem år samt överskridit budgeten med totalt 9,3 miljarder kronor. Syftet med denna masteruppsats är att objektivt identifiera de kritiska faktorer som orsakat förseningen av projektet samt redogöra för de konsekvenser som förseningen har orsakat för de bostadsutvecklare med projekt i områdena där de nya stationerna är planerade. Uppsatsen har avgränsats till att enbart skildra utbyggnaden mot Järfälla och Nacka. För att besvara studiens frågeställningar har kvalitativ och kvantitativ data integrerats genom litteraturstudier, intervjuer med 9 nyckelpersoner inom projektet, samt via en enkätundersökning med 13 fastighetsbolag, verksamma i Järfälla och Nacka. Uppsatsen har identifierat en faktor som ligger till grund för att projektet inte presterat enligt projektets tid- och kostnadsmål. Faktorn har sitt ursprung i de felaktiga och orealistiska beräkningar som presenterades i 2013 års Stockholmsförhandling. Ytterligare förseningsfaktorer har identifierats, men är inte att anses som kritiska eftersom de inte haft en betydande inverkan på projektet och dess färdigställande. Förseningen av projektet är att kategorisera som ej acceptabel med hänsyn till dess uppkomst och omfattning. Mot den bakgrundsdata som samlats in genom litteraturstudier, intervjuer och enkätundersökningar kan förseningen härledas som en konsekvens av politisk-ekonomiska orsakssamband. Uppsatsens resultat visar även på att förseningen orsakat flera negativa konsekvenser för de fastighetsbolag som är verksamma i Järfälla och Nacka, vilket har skapat ett generellt missnöje gentemot projektets beställarorganisation.

Full textAbstract:
Improvement of performance has become ever more critical to construction project success and has been subject to a considerable amount of research and attention over the past two decades. In this regard, the Saudi Ministry of Interior (SMoI) has adopted a new approach - Standard Design Model (SDM) - for the development of its construction programme to successfully manage its complex project portfolio and improve project performance. The SMoI-SDM approach is based on the standardisation of design, material specifications, contract documents and processes. It is anticipated that many lessons will be learnt due to the re-use of SDMs for future projects as well as sharing learning between on-going projects, thus leading to continuous project performance improvement. The aim of this research is to develop a framework for improving the performance of SDMs in SMoI projects. A qualitative case study approach was adopted to provide an in-depth insight into the current performance of SDM projects and identify critical success factors (CSFs) affecting the process of improvement of SDMs project performance. Four case studies were selected involving two on-going and two completed projects. Three key themes were identified from the case studies analysis; these are: adaptability of SDMs to context; contract management; and construction management. Consequently, a framework was developed to improve SDM projects performance as well as the expected performance improvement curve that results from the cumulative learning and experience. The framework validation was conducted through a workshop involving the same stakeholders who participated in the case studies, in which the feedback on possible improvements to the framework was obtained. The framework demonstrated its practicality, clarity and appropriateness for use across the SDM projects.Significantly, this research has the potential to direct standardisation of design and process in construction projects in particular in the public sector and could help achieve a sustained project performance improvement in the Saudi construction industry.

Syftet med denna magisteruppsats är att undersöka vad som menas med ett lyckat projekt, vilka är de kritiska framgångsfaktorer för anläggningsprojekt och hur utvärderas anläggningsprojekt i praktiken. Detta syfte prövades genom kvalitativa intervjuundersökningar i form av inledande studie som utgörs av personliga strukturerade intervjuer med öppna/ fria svarsalternativ baserat på mina kollegor ifrån Fastighet- och serviceförvaltningen, med fokus på anläggningsprojekt där beställaren är Gislaveds kommun och dels genom telefonintervjuer med projektledare och chefer ifrån PEAB, NCC, Accent Arkitekter, Weedo Tech med mera. Empiriskt erhållna data analyseras utifrån tre analysmodeller; vad är ett lyckat projekt (fråga 1,2), kritiska framgångsfaktorer (fråga 3,4,5,6 och 9) och analysmodell för hur utvärderas projekt (7,8). Det framkom att hälften av respondenterna definierade ett lyckat anläggningsprojekt enligt projekttriangeln. Medan hälften av svarande definierade ett lyckat anläggningsprojekt enligt en vidareutveckling av projekttriangeln med kundnöjdhet. Det framhålls att kompetens, engagemang, tydligt uppdrag, god planering, tillräcklig budget, bra förstudie och projektering, organisation och ledning är de faktorer som främjar ett lyckat projekt. Härvidlag framhålls det att det unika för denna studie, dvs det som avviker ifrån vetenskapliga teorier och analysmodellen är det har tillkommit nya faktorer såsom samsyn, partnering, bra förstudie och projektering. Gällande dem kritiska framgångsfaktorer så är det enligt respondenter förstudie, kompetens, engagemang, ekonomi, tidsplaner, tydligt uppdrag, kommunikation och ledarskap. Det framkom i denna studie att det som avviker ifrån vetenskapliga teorier och analysmodellen är utökning med andra kritiska framgångsfaktorer har såsom förstudie, tidsplaner och kommunikation. Min slutsats är att det stämmer så som flera studier tyder på att det inte går att identifiera några generella allmängiltiga framgångsfaktorer (L. Ljung 2011) utan det är fallspecifikt som i det här fallet där det fallspecifika för bygg- och anläggningsprojekt som utkristalliserats är partnering och projektering. Slutsatsen är också att framgångsfaktorer varierar beroende på projektets storlek, komplexitet och tekniska osäkerhet. Beträffande hur anläggningsprojekt utvärderas i praktiken så framhålls det att projekt utvärderas i stort sett utifrån projekttriangel men med en modifierad och utökad variant enligt analysmodellen ovan, där kundnöjdhetsindex har lagts till. Gällande den kontinuerliga utvärderingen under projektets gång så framkom det i denna studie att även funktionskrav, ÄTA (ändrings och tilläggsarbeten) och arbetsmiljöplan följs upp och utvärderas. Min slutsats är att projekttriangeln har lämnat starka avtryck även i utvärderingen av projekt med viss modifiering där det tagits hänsyn till kvalitetsarbetet.The purpose of this master's thesis is to investigate what is meant by a successful project, which are the critical success factors for construction projects and how evaluated construction projects are in practice. This purpose was tested through qualitative interview studies in the form of an initial study consisting of personal structured interviews with open / free answer options based on my colleagues from the Real Estate and Service Administration, focusing on construction projects where the client is Gislaved municipality and partly by telephone interviews with project managers and managers from PEAB, NCC, Accent Architects, Weedo Tech and more. Empirically obtained data is analyzed on the basis of three analysis models; What is a successful project (question 1.2), critical success factors (questions 3,4,5,6 and 9) and analysis model for evaluating projects (7.8). It was found that half of respondents defined a successful construction project according to the project triangle. While half of respondents defined a successful construction project according to a further development of the project triangle with customer satisfaction. It is emphasized that skills, dedication, clear assignments, good planning, adequate budget, good study and design, organization and management are the factors that promote a successful project. In this respect, it is emphasized that the unique nature of this study, ie, which differs from scientific theories and the analysis model, has brought about new factors such as consensus, partnering, good study and design. Concerning them, critical success factors, according to the respondents, are preliminary studies, skills, commitment, economics, schedules, clear assignments, communication and leadership. It was found in this study that what differs from scientific theories and the analysis model is expansion with other critical success factors such as preliminary studies, schedules and communication. My conclusion is that several studies suggest that it is not possible to identify any general all-important success factors (L. Ljung 2011), but case-specific as in this case where case-specific for construction projects that have been crystallized is partnering and design. The conclusion is also that success factors vary depending on the size, complexity and technical uncertainty of the project. In terms of how the projects are evaluated in practice, it is emphasized that projects are evaluated largely on the basis of a project triangle but with a modified and expanded variant according to the analysis model above, where customer satisfaction index has been added. Regarding the continuous evaluation during the course of the project, it was found in this study that functional requirements, ÄTA (Changes and additional work) and work environment plan are also monitored and evaluated. My conclusion is that the project triangle has given strong impression even in the evaluation of projects with some modification taking account of quality work.

Project management is one of the most effective approaches to ensure the success of project on condition of complex environmental factors for the construction industry. However, many researchers have defined the project success, but there isn’t an accordant definition. It is sure that one of the key factors for the project success is the performance of project manager. This study aims at defining and identifying which factors influence the performance of construction project managers. By the discussion and analysis on these key factors, it assumes the performance of construction project manager in the construction industry can be advanced so as to advance the possibility of project success. 132 valid questionnaires from project managers are collected, and the research result is integrated as follows: (1) It identifies if the 48 influential variables have significant importance by one-sample t-Test. The result indicates that the 5 influential variables (work overtime, company size, age, overseas experience, membership of professional institute) don’t reach the significant importance, and the other 43 influential factors have significant influence on the performance of construction project manager in this study. (2) It ranks the influential variables by the mean of their importance. The first five variables are “conscientiousness”, “motivation”, “integrity”, “engaging communication”, and ”sensitivity”. (3) By correlation analysis, the four variables of project membership, annual turnover of the company, work year of being project manager, and year income of the project manager have positive correlation with the 9 influential factors. Therefore, construction project managers with different backgrounds have different views on the influential perspectives. (4) By one-way ANOVA test, it finds the views of construction project managers in the companies with different characteristics have significant difference on the influential variables of “project team relationship”, “ability of project team”, “project experience of company”, and “foreign language”. This study offers some valuable implications for the management to select effective project managers to improve the success of the projects.

In a highly globalized, rapidly changing technological and economic environment, more and more enterprises begin to realize that the project management can bring more benefits for large-scale projects. For example, how to improve the success rate of the project, to understand the critical success factors of project management will contribute to control and execute projects. Accordingly, this study hopes to find out the factors that influence success, thereby increasing the likelihood of success of project by discussing and analyzing these key factors. This study investigated that the construction practitioners think what would affect success factors of the project in various stages, the workers of different attributes’ think about the importance of the affecting variables, and the relationship between project planning, project deployment and overall satisfaction by questionnaire survey. To general project management, the results showed that in projects planning stage, all respondents considered that “cost estimation” is the most important; in projects deployment stage, all respondents believed that “cost control” is the most important.To construction project management, in projects planning stage, all respondents considered that “goal programming” is the most important; in projects deployment stage, all respondents considered that “construction planning” is the most important. In addition, in the general project management and the construction project management, project planning and project deployment, project deployment and overall satisfaction are all proportional. Verification result of this study could provide Taiwan's construction industry organization to understand what factors would affect the success of the project to assist organizations to review their strengths and weaknesses, and develop good strategies to enhance the effectiveness of the internal implementation of project management when they run the project management.

Dissertation submitted in compliance with the requirements for the Masters Degree in Technology: Business Administration, Durban University of Technology, 2011.This study presents an assessment of the perceptions of project managers and contractors regarding the critical success factors influencing project success in the Durban construction industry. To achieve this aim, questionnaires were administered to 95 project managers and 61 active grade four contractors in Durban. The critical success factors are encapsulated in components, that is, comfort, competence, communication and commitment (COMs). These components make up the four COMs model which forms a basis for evaluation of the questionnaires. An in-depth analysis review of the literature on the critical success factors in the construction industry has affirmed the four COMs model. The interpretation of this quantitative study was conducted with the use of descriptive and inferential statistics presented in a tabular format. The findings revealed that both project managers and contractors strongly support the critical success factors as significant in achieving project success. There was no significant difference in their perception of critical success factors, given the biographic differences between them. Achieving project success has eluded the Durban construction industry to a point where it is battling to keep existing clients. The critical success factors identified in this study have provided a way forward for project managers and contractors. Hence, the results presented in this study can be used as a guideline for successful execution of construction projects in Durban. The Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) can play a pivotal role by providing an enabling environment which will facilitate the adoption of the results of this study. For example, the CIDB can amend its legislation on contracts by making them simple to comprehend. In this way the number of lawsuits between project managers and contractors would be drastically reduced.

The purpose of this study is to explore the factors that influence the success or failure in the project management of public work contract with the perspective of the contractor. The implementation of the project management of the two public works, National Highway No. 6 and the sewage discharge pipe of Central Taiwan Science Park Taichung base,is sampled to collect the study data. This study uses empirical model to find out the operating mechanism problems that the construction industry has with the project management of public works. We take practical cases to research the related time, cost, performance and field. The research results are used to be the determine conditions of the success of the project work. Then we find out the factors that influence the success or failure in the project management. Each case is unique with different construction situations from other cases. Therefore, we first determine the study samples and fields to explore the success or failure differences between the two cases. Then, we build the relevant project management theory through the literature review to be the reference and base of evidence. Furthermore, we make the conclusion of the study. Through the data analysis and case study, the study result is shown as follow: Project organization, project manager, interested person and construction environment are the four key factors that influence the success of the project management of public work. The result of this study will provide the industry of the similar construction situations with a direction guidance so as to reduce the implementation trouble and increase the success possibility. Besides, we expect that this study will build up a study base for the future research on the project management of public work.

The sewerage construction project conducted using build-operate-transfer (BOT) policy would reduce the governmental expense and increase the efficiency of construction procedure. However, only six contracted BOT sewerage projects out of thirty-six planned sewerage projects have been carried out in Taiwan. Many obstacles still exist in attracting civil companies to take part in the BOT project. This study is aimed to investigate the key factors affecting the success of BOT sewerage project. Draft affecting factors were obtained based on the results of literature review and cause-effect method. Questionnaire was designed and sent to the professional who has involved in the BOT project. Statistics package for social science (SPSS) was utilized to verify the reliability and validity of the questionnaire survey results. In addition, the structural equation modeling was built and the ranking of affecting factors was determined using analysis moment structures (AMOS) software. The key factors affecting the success of BOT sewerage project are divided into four stages: (1) investment invitation stage “transparent public information”, (2) construction stage “the schedule of land acquisition”, (3) operation stage “improve and enhance the environment quality”, and (4) transfer stage “proper preparation schedule before transfer”. The most important factor is the encouragement and support of local government through whole BOT project.

Cost-plus contract for construction projects cannot be widely adopted because there are issues of information asymmetry and mutual trust usually existed between the owners and contractors. To solve information asymmetry problem of the cost-plus contract, the study proposes to building a public Information platform for owners and contractors in major process of construction phase, from planning and design review, estimation, procurement and outsource, construction planning, construction drawings, construction management and valuation re-estimation, control, acceptance and settlement and closing, operation, maintenance and repair, health examination service to feedback and design modification. This platform can be functionally as follows: (1) planning design review meeting, budget review meeting, co- procurement and outsource ; (2) joint review construction plan and drawings; (3) project presentations of sub-construction details before implementation, materials and equipment inspection and testing, sample test, sample construction, self- inspection, product quality inspection and testing;(4)providing real-time network cost transparency, organized construction, structure, decoration and housing briefing; (5) holding open visiting of grouting, water pressure and proof test; customer service, repair, management feedback. The research questionnaire is designed through expert interview study regarding building a public information platform for owners and contractors in construction phrase. The results of response questionnaires from owners and constrictors show building a public information platform is able to solve information asymmetry problem of cost-plus contract for construction projects. This platform make contractors be able to provide owners with enjoy participating , communicating, selecting and acquiring real-time equally transparent information service to reduce risks of misunderstanding, rift, dispute caused by information asymmetry and poor communication. The statistical analysis results of communication, interview and questionnaires indicate owners and contractors can generate mutual trust in their interaction process by respecting each other. The results from questionnaire survey also imply that mutual trust is a very critical success factor to cost-plus contract for construction projects. With regard to cost-plus contract for construction projects, the study proposes to build a public information platform for owners and contractors in construction phrase to solve the problems of information asymmetry and mistrust during execution process so that the public information platform will become a very critical success factor to cost-plus contract for construction projects. Academically, this study can be regarded as an exploratory research for construction management model. In practice, it can not only help construction industry to increase the quality of construction process also improve the standard operating procedures of construction.

Sustainable concept has remarkably developed in scale and popularity nowadays and became an effective management tool for sustainable construction projects. Mongolian construction industry aims by the year 2030 to a build big amount of construction to point that it can implement sustainability in projects and it can become rolled out as a model to the developing countries. For achieving this, the Project Management engagement is significant when facing sustainable problems. Thus, Mongolia still has not any practice of completed green project in construction field. Thereby, the purpose of this study is to define the success factors of developing GPM in the construction industry of Mongolia. Basing on the previous studies, a theoretical model was presented to study the relationship between factors. Meanwhile, thirteen hypotheses were suggested to test the influence between constructs. The sample was collected by using a questionnaire survey of 155 participants in construction professionals in Mongolia. According to the analysis using SPSS, this study finds out the factors to provide successful implementation of green development achievements. Eventually, the result of this study will become a basis to develop GPM in the future.

Research collaboration between academia and industry is a form of knowledge creation in construction industry project management. This research collaboration is motivated by the intent to provide solutions to issues and problems that industry faces through research expertise and a scientific approach. Notwithstanding the potential benefits acknowledged by researchers, collaborative academia-industry research has not been sufficiently explored and there only exist a few studies addressing research success and success factors. Several main reasons for this include; 1) the success of collaborative academia-industry research has not been well defined, 2) there exist limited empirical studies, and 3) the research process of collaborative academia-industry research has not been systematically investigated.
The primary purpose of this study is to improve the process of the collaborative academia-industry research for construction industry project management by identifying key process attributes and success factors. First, this study suggests a definition of the success and success criteria of collaborative academia-industry research based on literature review. Then this study evaluated more than 150 research efforts of the Construction Industry Institute (CII), a non-profit research organization sponsoring academia-industry collaborative research for more than 30 years, against the established success criteria to identify successful and less than successful research efforts. Multiple methods were adopted for the evaluation including web-based surveys, research product dissemination data, journal citation counts, and expert group assessment. By analysis and triangulation of the data collected from those multiple sources, this study identified 11 research efforts for further analyses.
In-depth cases studies on the 11 research efforts were conducted focusing on the research process through interviews with a total of 39 academics and industry practitioners who participated in those research efforts. Information from interviews and other relevant data were analyzed for each case as well as across the 11 cases to identify key process attributes and factors contributing to research success. Consolidated findings from the cross-case analyses generated 9 key process attributes and associated success factors with significant potential to improve the research process of collaborative academia-industry research.text

Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the Masters of Technology: Quality, Durban University of Technology, 2012.There were several problems facing Reconstruction and Development Programmes (RDP) housing projects caused by contractors using unskilled labour, misuse of funds, fraudulent claims, contractors asking for additional money or having left site. The overall scope of projects had no plan and no clear definition, poor project management and there was a lack of strategies to improve the quality of projects. This study recommends that it is imperative that project team members involved in the management of RDP housing projects have the necessary skills and level of education to execute their duties. Moreover, the Department of Housing and Local Government (DHLG) should draft a policy on Quality Management Systems (QMS)/good practices in respect of its project scope of works so that all stakeholders conform to the set standards. The people who are due to benefit from this housing are left in a state of despair, confusion and loss of hope from Government promises, with a subsequent increase in informal settlements. The aim of the study was to investigate factors influencing the success rate of RDP housing in the Eastern Cape. This case study employed a quantitative approach to collect data. Questionnaires were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, namely, correlation t-test and Anova. The purposive sampling technique was used to select a sample size of 50 respondents from the Department of Housing and Local Government (DHLG) in the Eastern Cape Province. The advantage of this sampling technique is to reduce data to an intelligible and interpretable form so that the relationship between research problems can be studied and tested and conclusions drawn. The DHLG could significantly improve the quality management of low-cost homes if it adopts the Project Alignment Model.

Find full textAbstract:
In the field of the construction industry, the research work has been widely focused on identifying key performance indicators and critical success factors without assessing the impact of conflict environment factors. This study focusses on the impact of post-conflict environment factors on local construction organization performance. This research presents a performance prediction model comprising the effect of post-conflict environment factors on construction organization performance. The proposed framework of this study has four stages: identify key performance indicators (KPIs), identify post-conflict environment impacting factors, determine critical success factors (CSFs), and formulate success strategy to improve performance. Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and multiple linear regression (MLR) techniques are applied to analyze the data.
The study finding indicates that there is a significant relationship between the post-conflict condition impacting factors and local construction organization performance, which is insufficiently studied in previous research work. Thus, the developed framework will benefit academic scholars and industry practitioners to analyze and evaluate challenges and opportunities caused by different external environment conditions in the post-conflict construction industry.
