“…Proper emphasis on the past experience and qualifications of the awarded contractors through strict prequalification procedures are among the success factors proposed in many textbooks and previous research works (Alzahrani & Emsley, 2013). In addition, a very clear project scope will eliminate any ambiguity in the way the project progresses to achieve the desired outcomes (Jha & Iyer, 2006;Doloi et al, 2012;Gudiene et al, 2013;Ihuah, Tippett & Eaton, 2014;Chan et al, 2004). However, it is highlighted that the need to conduct proper site investigation prior to establishing the scope would play a critical role in determining the most fit scope of work (Ihuah, Tippett & Eaton, 2014;Ng, Wong, Y.…”

“…During the last five years and due to the subject's high importance, several studies have investigated the factors that lead to the successful completion of construction projects; particularly those factors that influence construction project success more than others (Iyer & Jha, 2006;Toor & Ogunlana, 2009;Mukhtar, Amirudin, Sofield & Mohamad, 2016;Chou, Irawan & Pham, 2013;Yong & Mustaffa, 2013;Doloi, Sawhney, Iyer & Rentala, 2012;Chen, W., Chen, T., Lu & Liu, 2012;Ahadzie, Proverbs & Olomolaiye, 2008;Amade, Ubani, Omajeh & Njoku, 2015;Gudienėa, Banaitisa, Banaitienėa & Lopesb, 2013;Tabish & Jha, 2012). Rockart (1982) was the first to use the term "critical success factors."…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the critical success factors and the critical delays in the context of water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs) in the Abu Dhabi Emirate. In addition, the purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual model to investigate the potential relationship. The literature concerning the critical success and delay factors and the related models that are available provide a starting point for developing the conceptual model. Based on the comprehensive and thorough literature review, all the dimensions of the variables are identified and discussed in detail.This study attempts to reduce the existing gap in the literature regarding the relationship between the critical success factors and critical delay. It forms a foundation upon which further local research can be conducted. In addition, it attempts to identify and point out the most critical success factors that will minimize the delay claims in water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs), as such delays would lead to some of the most difficult and controversial disputes to resolve. Internationally, it is expected that the findings of this research may help as an evidentiary reference data on which other and further similar comparative researches could be initiated and developed in different environments in terms of cultural, social, contractual, political, and environmental mediums.

“…These projects involve large quantum of resources in the form of men, money, machines, materials and more importantly the time. This has lead to the ever growing urge for the efficient and optimum use of these resources which calls for a better insight in the spatial and temporal patterns of resources and activities (Iyer and Jha, 2006). The parameters of civil engineering today are thus not only confirmed to the design and construction of structures, but are more concerned with the art of efficiently managing the resources used for the project execution and satisfactory competition.…”

Abstract-The field of civil engineering is witnessing a tremendous growth in India and particularly more so in the past decade. Huge investment nearly to the extent of 50-60% of the planned budget is being made towards building infrastructure, which is essential for the sustenance and growth of economy. But however the construction industry yet needs to be developed on organized lines which are possible with the civil engineering professionals having managerial skill and knowledge. This paper is the result of study undertaken to highlight the applications of management concepts in the routine construction projects at its various phases of execution. It attempts to bring out the salient features of different forms of management as applied in the construction projects and tends to conclude attributing their success to the efficient management practices.
