“…This empirical is consistent with previous studies that have also provided empirical evidence for the positive influence of project risk management practices on project quality. El Khatib et al (2023) indicated that project quality management had a positive effect on risk management. NC and Menzies (2023) affirmed that risk management project had a significant influence on project quality.…”

“…The global decline in project quality within construction companies in developed countries is a growing concern, with several key factors, such as cost-cutting measures, the demand for faster project delivery, skilled labor shortages in the construction industry, complex and changing regulations, Poor communication among project stakeholders, including contractors, subcontractors, and project owners, economic downturns, inadequate risk management practices, and compromised project outcomes contribute to this issue (Alonso-Conde & Rojo-Suarez, 2020; Dohale et al, 2021;El Khatib et al, 2023;Stergiopoulos et al, 2022). While it is important to note that not all projects or construction companies are affected equally, there are common trends that highlight this decline (Zaray et al, 2022).…”

“…and Zaray, et al (2022) affirmed that constructions project quality has been identified to be negatively influenced by low-quality materials, lack of auditing, lack of proper supervision, design complexity, design concept among others is some of the common sources of construction defects. Also, constructions project quality is negatively influenced by conflicts between project managers and other outside stakeholders such as sub-contractor and owner, suspending important decisions, unawareness of proper planning tools and techniques by project managers, poor monitoring and feedback tools, negative attitude of project managers and project participants, disorganized resources allocation (Amoah & Sibelekwana, 2023;El Khatib et al, 2023;Hijazi, 2021;Mohammed & Adindu, 2021). In response to this gap, the present study examined the influence of project risk management practices on project quality, specifically within the context of developing nations such as Nigeria.…”

In the construction industry, ensuring high-quality standards is a critical aspect of construction projects and plays a pivotal role in the sustained viability and triumph of contemporary construction companies. However, existing literature highlights the persistently subpar levels of project quality within the construction sector. This situation is manifested through cost overruns, time delays, deficient project definition, and fluctuations in project scope, which are indicative of insufficient project risk management practices. Although several studies have examined project risk management practices, little emphasis has been placed on evaluating their impact on quality in the construction industry. Hence, this study examined the dimensional effect of optimal project risk management practices on project quality of selected construction companies in Nigeria. Survey research design was adopted. The population was 202 top management and mechanical department staff of three selected construction companies in Lagos State, Rivers State, and the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja, Nigeria. A sample size of 176 was found to be usable. A validated questionnaire was adopted for data collection. Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficients for the constructs ranged from 0.74 to 0.98. The response rate was 87.1%. Data were analyzed using the Smart partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) software, which allowed for the testing of path analysis and hypotheses. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was employed to assess the factor loading of the variables. Findings indicated that project risk management practices had significant effect on project quality of selected construction companies in Nigeria (Adj R2 = 0.54, F2 = 0.058, Q2 = 0.507, p < 0.05). The study concluded that project risk management practices improved the quality of the selected construction companies in Nigeria. The study recommended that project managers should establish and implement effective quality management systems that outline clear processes and procedures for ensuring project quality. Develop quality control plans that include inspection, testing, and monitoring activities throughout the project lifecycle. Incorporate quality management standards and best practices, such as ISO 9001, to enhance quality assurance processes.

Due to the present worldwide economic development, there is an increasing need to follow the financial health of companies in individual sectors to avoid possible decline and bankruptcy. The goal of this contribution is to find out the influence of the pandemic on the economic situation in the mining industry as the primary sector, in connection with the construction industry as the secondary sector. The research is carried out through economic and financial indicators, which mostly influence the potential crisis of companies. The results show that the mining industry and construction sectors managed to avoid the heavy decline and bankruptcy of certain organizations in the industries. Such results can be used for forecasting and modeling the socio-economic development of regions and countries. The growth of the analyzed industries could contribute to the sustainable development in the country.
