The indirect effects obtained was positive and different from zero, and the confidence interval within which the effect occur do not include zero indicating that awareness can mitigate the effects of fraudulent practices been compliance barriers affecting cost performance of construction projects.

Determinan Kinerja Biaya Dan Waktu Proyek Konstruksi Di Indonesia Ditinjau Dalam Konteks Islami

“…Penelitian pada perusahaan konstruksi di Nigeria ditemukan bahwa manajemen jadwal berpengaruh terhadap kinerja biaya dan waktu (Amusan M et al, 2018). Penelitian pada perusahaan konstruksi di Malaysia juga ditemukan bahwa manajemen jadwal berpengaruh terhadap kinerja biaya dan waktu (Abdullahi Nafiu Zadawa et al, 2018). Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini membentuk hipotesis sebagai berikut: H7 : Manajemen Jadwal berpengaruh terhadap Kinerja Biaya dan Waktu 8) Pengaruh Manajemen Anggaran Terhadap Kinerja Biaya Dan Waktu Theory of Perfomance (ToP) mengarahkan pada komponen kemampuan (skill) manajemen dalam mencapai ekonomisasi, efisiensi dan efektifitas dari proses penyelesaian konstruksi.…”
