“…From the presented literature review and many previous several researches, five (5) delays were identified as common in many studies in different geographical areas and various types of construction industries (Aziz & Abdel-Hakam, 2013;Alzaraa, Kashiwagib, Kashiwagic & Al-Tassand, 2016;Durdyev et al, 2017;Zidane, Johansenb & Ekambaramb, 2015;Elawi, 2016;Doloi, Sawhney & Iyer, 2012;Gunduz & AbuHassan, 2016;Gluszak & Lesniak, 2015;Gunduz, Nielsen & Ozdemir, 2015). The selected five delay factors are:…”

The objective of this study is to investigate the significance impact of critical success factors on critical delays in the field of water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs) in the Abu Dhabi emirate in particular. Investigation was conducted utilizing quantitative approach by means of questionnaire survey to examine the understanding of professionals engaged in water infrastructure construction towards several critical success factors influencing critical delays. A total of 323 completed responses from owners, consultants and contractors representatives were gathered against 450 distributed questionnaires.The gathered questionnaires were analysed using an advanced multivariate statistical method of P artial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). Data analysis was conducted in two major phases. The first phase involved a preliminary analysis of the data, to ensure that the data adequately meet the basic assumptions in using SEM. The second phase applied the two stages of SEM. The first stage included the establishment of measurement models for the latent constructs in the research. After confirming the uni-dimensionality, reliability and validity of the constructs in the first stage, the second stage developed to test the research hypotheses through developing the structural models. The results indicated

“…The publications of Anysz and Zbiciak (2013); Czarnigowska and Sobotka (2013); Głuszak and Leśniak (2015) and Leśniak and Piskorz (2017) involve attempts made by various researchers to identify the factors infl uencing works delays in the opinion of contractors. Work by Leśniak (2012) proves that, according to contractors, the most signifi cant factors that generate delays include mistakes in project documentation, the investor's slow decision-making process and a low quality of management and supervision of the construction site.…”

“…The paper by Jaśkowski and Biruk (2010) analysed the results of the research into the time risk factors in Poland. Some of the Polish publications also present the possibilities of applying various methods to analyse delay-causing factors: using the Dematel method (Dytczak, Ginda & Wojtkiewicz, 2011), factor analysis (Głuszak & Leśniak, 2015) or propose models and methods that can be used to effectively and reliably estimate the time of implementation of construction projects (Skorupka, 2008;Połoński & Pruszyński, 2013;Ibadov & Kulejewski, 2015;Krzemiński, 2016).…”

Any construction project, even one that is excellently planned and organized, is prone to the risk of unforeseen events and problems, which in effect can cause late completion of works. The paper presents the results of the research conducted among Polish and Slovakian building contractors. One attempt was to identify and assess the potential causes of delays in the construction works resulting from the provisions of the contract. The knowledge of these factors can help contractors to take protective measures, reducing the risk of delays during the implementation of construction works.

“…Głuszak and Leśniak (2015) analysed the main causes of late performance of construction contract works, among which the following were determined as the most important: errors in design documentation, personnel qualification, weather conditions, poor supervision of construction works, and lax control and monitoring of construction works. Most causes are evaluated in the set of criteria developed by the authors, which sets forth the builder's contractual civil liability for the quality of works.…”

The goal of this paper is to compare quality assurance in different contractor contracts by means of multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) and to select the best option. For this investigation, the authors have developed the complex of quality evaluation criteria. During experimental evaluation, the significance of criteria was determined and the expert evaluation of template construction contracts was performed. The complex comparison of contractor contracts was carried out by means of the following MADM methods: Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), Complex Proportional Assessment (COPRAS) as well as the new Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS). MADM. method. To determine the weights of criteria, with due consideration of uncertainty of expert evaluation, the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method was applied. Evaluation of the data structure was performed by methods for the determination of objective weights: an entropy method and new criteria impact loss (CILOS) and integrated determination of objective criteria weights (IDOCRIW) methods. Expert subjective and objective weights were combined into aggregate weights. Based on the investigation performed, the authors make conclusions regarding possibilities for improving quality assurance in contractor contracts.
