“…Zhang et al (2017) developed a dynamic game theory method based on two-layer scheduling to minimize project time, machine operations and energy consumption to attain real-time multi-objective scheduling. Hafezalkotob (2018) introduced a multi-objective, bi-level distributed programming model based on fuzzy leader-follower game to study the behavior of project client and subcontractors when they are defined as leader and followers respectively.…”

Purpose This study considers a project scheduling model to assess the project risks and the impacts on project sustainability when subcontractors collaborate under uncertainty. Moreover, some allocation methods are applied for fair allocating utility of the project and supper-additivity, stability and satisfaction level of each coalition. Finally, sustainability concept is considered in risk assessment in all coalitions. Design/methodology/approach The proposed mathematical programming model evaluates project risks when the subcontractors cooperate with each other by sharing their limited resources. Then, some cooperative game theory methods are applied for fair allocation of net present value, of the cooperation and finally sustainability aspects (economic, social and environmental) are investigated in risk assessment for each possible coalition. Finding The results of the proposed model indicate that the subcontractors can increase their profit by 10 per cent ($14,028,450 thousand) and save the equilibrium between sustainability aspects especially in grand coalition. It means that subcontractors do not have incentive to leave the coalition and the supper-additive property is feasible. Furthermore, risk assessment shows that project risks have less impact on subcontractor profits when they cooperate with each other. Originality/value Sustainability aspects may be investigated in project management in previous studies, but the authors study sustainability indicators when subcontractors form a coalition and share their resources in response to the risks of availability to resources and delay in completing the project under uncertainty.

Sustainability in project operations such as financial, social and environmental sustainability is one of the most prominent issues of the present times to address. The increased focus on sustainable business operations has changed the viewpoint of researchers and corporate community towards the project management. Today sustainability in business operations along with sustainability of natural and environmental resources are of paramount significance which has further caused a huge impact on conception, planning, scheduling and execution of the project management activities. In this paper, a literature review between 1987 and 2018 on different issues affecting the sustainability in project management is carried out. The present study also identifies and discusses the future possibilities to apply computational procedures in order to estimate and optimize the sustainability issues in the management of projects, for example the computational evolutionary algorithms can be applied to formulate the multi-objective decisionmaking problem after considering critical factors of sustainability in the projects and then yielding optimized solutions for the formulated problem to achieve sustainability in the projects. A new integrated framework with the inclusion of feedback function for assessment of each decision and actions taken towards the sustainability of the projects is also identified and presented.
