“…Project Communication Management consists of developing an effective communication strategy for stakeholders and carrying out activities to implement the communication strategy [11]. [12], [13] proposed that communication management is an integrated communication discipline, but according to [10], it is also part of management science [14]. The function of communication management is to create and promote the corporate spirit, corporate culture.…”

“…This plan should be part of the overall project plan [15]. In managing crises, effective communication management is an important tool [13]. Regular two-way communication between the organization and internal and external stakeholders is the lifeblood of beneficial organizational-stakeholder relationships [11] is the lifeblood of projects and organizations [10].…”

“…Likewise, the government has an important role as a party that is highly involved in implementing infrastructure projects, both in communication between the government and the construction project manager and with the communities involved in or around the infrastructure project environment. Research related to this research has been conducted by [8], [11], [13], [16]. Meanwhile, [17] developed the theory of public relations based on decision theory, game theory, and conflict resolution theory, while Lauzen built his theory based on these four models.…”

The biggest threat that results in the project not being successful is failure to build a stakeholder project. Based on research on construction projects in developing countries, the lack of communication among workers due to cultural uniformity and the uniqueness of their respective regions can become work constraints that can affect implementation performance and productivity, namely, there is a 69.61% decrease in time performance. The main objective of this research is to analyze the role of communication management in improving the performance of construction project managers in developing countries, particularly the role of construction managers in implementing a construction project. This research uses a qualitative approach and a case study method. Sampling using purposive sampling. Forum Group Discussion to see how the opinions of construction project managers in Indonesia view the importance of communication management in the success of construction projects. The study results explain that the need for Public Relations Infrastructure management plays a role in ensuring various policies and communication to the public. This is a reflection of the effective function of public relations in the implementation of infrastructure development. In carrying out the construction, the construction project manager must pay attention to communication dynamics to support the success of infrastructure development projects. Contractors and other parties involved in infrastructure development must raise awareness of the essence of effective communication in fostering trust in the public concerned with infrastructure development.

“…In any construction project, establishing coordination and transitioning from one stage of construction to the next is key to completing the project on schedule and cost effectively [56,57,58,59,60,61]. Presumably, since the procedure in modular construction is different, the need for coordination will be a greater challenge [54,55].…”

Modular construction is a novel technique that has several advantages over traditional construction methods; however, along with the benefits, there are limitations that make it challenging. Various aspects of modular construction need to be studied in-depth to improve the construction process, and the aim of this study was to accomplish that by investigating its advantages and limitations and comparing them with traditional construction. The advantages were identified through a thorough literature review, and were classified into five categories: project schedule, project cost, labor safety, project quality and productivity, and environmental. The limitations were also investigated through the existing literature and classified into five categories: project planning, transportation, public and expert acceptance, establishment cost and cost due to complexity, and coordination. The results revealed that the advantages of modular construction outnumber its limitations; however, further technological development and research would lessen or mitigate the challenges. The results of this study highlight the main benefits and challenges associated with modular construction and will help project stakeholders choose between this method and conventional construction methods for their projects.

“…Sohail and Baldwin [12] presented five success criteria for projects: schedule, budget, cooperation and partnership, quality, and socioeconomic content. Most researchers believe that measuring the budget, schedule, and quality performance, which have been called the "iron triangle" in project management, is very important to the success of a construction project [6,13,14,15,16,17] Project management plays a critical role in successfully delivering a construction project [18]. In 2008, the PMBOK@GUIDE [19] defined project management as the utilization of knowledge, tools and techniques, and skills for project activities to meet construction project requirements.…”

Departments of Transportation (DOT) are experiencing unprecedented pressure to deliver projects on time and on budget. An obvious response to this pressure is to improve the project delivery process by adopting effective project management principles and strategies. The research team for this study investigated the DOT's implementation level of effective project management practices and strategies for transportation infrastructure projects by first performing a literature review to discover the project management strategies and practices historically used in transportation projects. Then, they designed a survey to identify the general project management practices implemented in the delivery process. They pilot tested the survey, distributed it to state transportation agencies via an online platform, and collected 96 completed surveys. The results revealed that team qualification was ranked the highest of the implementation level of strategies, and that environmental planning and quality management were ranked second and third. The outcomes of this study will help decision-makers and project managers in their assessments and selections of the most useful best practices for delivering an infrastructure transportation project on time, on budget, and with a high level of quality.
