Project Performance Control in Reconstruction Projects

“…In this research, the analysis units chosen were economic infrastructure projects whose risk management processes, and subsequent performances, are far from the desired (McKim et al, 2000;Flyvbjerg et al, 2002;Shenhar & Dvir, 2007). In this way, five cases have been selected and evaluated by the technique of synthesis of cross cases (Yin, 2015).…”

Para tal, utilizou-se o referencial teórico associado tanto à literatura voltada para o gerenciamento de riscos quanto sobre complexidade e desempenho de projetos. A estratégia de pesquisa utilizada baseou-se no método de estudo de casos múltiplos, compreendendo a análise de cinco empreendimentos em dois segmentos econômicos distintos. As evidências empíricas sugerem que o impacto dos fatores de risco no desempenho dos projetos depende da intensidade da gestão dos riscos e das habilidades dos gerentes de risco, mas não varia com a complexidade dos projetos. O estudo também indica que a intensidade do desempenho nas dimensões analisadas varia de acordo com a influência dos fatores considerados. Palavras-chave: Projeto de infraestrutura; Desempenho; Gerenciamento de risco; Fator de risco; Complexidade.Abstract: This study aims to understand how risk factor management is characterized in the performance of infrastructure projects. The multiple-case study methodology was used, including the analysis of five projects in two different economic sectors. Empirical evidence suggests that the impact of risk factors in the performance of projects depends on risk management intensity and on the skills of risk managers, but it does not vary with project complexity. Furthermore, the intensity of the analyzed performance dimensions may vary according to the influence of the factors considered.

“…According to McKim et al (2000), the cost of design is one of the many ways to measure the performance in refurbishment projects. The element of cost as an indicator in refurbishment project performance is closely interrelated with other performance indicators that could be used to achieve overall control of project performance.…”

The refurbishment sector has the potential to keep growing and contribute to the growth of total Malaysian construction output. The increased number of obsolete and deteriorating buildings, coupled with the limited land for new development will contribute to increased demand for refurbishment works in Malaysia. However, the performance of refurbishment projects in most developed countries is unsatisfactory. One of the sources of unsatisfactory performance is related to design problems. This study analyses the variables that could be used for measuring design performance and reviews design performance of refurbishment projects in Malaysia. The study concludes that the design performance of refurbishment projects in Malaysia is used in three-quarters of refurbishment projects. The percentage of completeness of design before work starts on site was more than 80 percent. The additional construction cost attributed to design changes during the construction stage was more than 20 percent of the original estimated cost.
