“…Accordingly, with the increase of powers, the level of maturity will also increase. In other words, maturity is a continuum, not an endpoint (Wang et al, 2020). Maturity models therefore include methods and tools to facilitate evaluation, identify deficiencies and provide ways for improvement.…”

PurposeClaim formation is a fact and a regular occurrence in construction industry projects and often leads to a waste of money and time for organizations. Organizations can, however, reduce and control claims by promoting an integrated claim management system and improving productivity in the results of the claims. Establishing a claim management office is one of the ways to help organizations achieve this.Design/methodology/approachBased on library research, expert opinion and analysis of organizations' contracts as case studies and identifying the root causes of the claim, this paper proposes a claim management office maturity model and determines its levels.FindingsThis paper proposes a claim management office maturity model and also determines its levels. The general structure of this model is based on three parameters: “characteristics of each level,” “requirements of each level” and “transition period of each level” in five levels, where the first level is the most basic level and level five is the highest level of the implementation of a claim management office in the organization.Originality/valueIt can be clearly emphasized that this research is one of the first research studies that has dealt with the issue of claim management office in the construction industry and has proposed the model of maturity and development of claim management office in the organization. The use of numerous and experienced experts in achieving the results and case organizations to develop this research has increased the value and credibility of this research. This study also helps to improve the level of claim management in construction industry organizations so that these organizations can implement each level of claim management maturity model in the organization according to their competence and need for claim management. And by implementing it correctly, solve or reduce the problems of claim management in the organization and their projects.

“…Respondents were requested to rate their level of satisfaction for 33 closed questions raised for 9 categories (5 enablers and 4 results in the EFQM excellence model) related to their organizational circumstances. Benchmarking this model, a number of scholars [37][38][39][40][41][42][43] have evaluated the perceptions of respondents based on Likert scale data. The questionnaire contained both positively and negatively worded items to identify random responses.…”

The cadastral system is a land management and land administration tool to provide a safe and reliable real property registration system. In Ethiopia, however, the attempts to implement a reliable urban cadastral system have not been successful, which translates into a deficient land administration system. This paper is an evaluation of the performance of the urban cadastral system of Addis Ababa, based on the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) excellence model. The nine criteria of the model were used as independent and dependent variables. Data were collected through interviews, Likert-type questionnaires, and focus group discussions, and validated with method-to-method technique. Qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques (ordinal logistics regression model) were employed. In order to ascertain reliability of the data, Cronbach’s alpha reliability test was performed in SPSS, and a coefficient of 0.883 was calculated, confirming that the items (questions) have relatively high internal consistency. According to the statistical result from the independent variables, the people result criteria estimated the achievement of cadastral organization at most (1.724). The societal result predicted with a coefficient of 0.281 less. This indicates that the people criterion determines more importantly than other variables. Overall, the independent variables scored the performance of the cadastral organization 24.92 out of 40 points. Findings from interviews and group discussion also confirmed that the most bottlenecks for the organizational achievement are the strategic plan, quality of leadership, bureaucratic processes, and supply of resources. Therefore, we suggest that the responsible authorities need to pay more attention to the enabler criteria (especially, the design of policy and strategy, quality of leadership, provision of resource and partnership, and the process), in order to improve the achievements of the urban cadastral system organization.

“…In addition, it can measure the consistency of results on importance through what is termed the consistency ratio (CR). Here, the AHP analysis proceeds as follows: (i) the decision-making problems are stratified into goals, criteria, and alternatives; (ii) a pairwise comparison of the decision-making elements is conducted at a given level of the hierarchy, with the pairwise comparison matrix calculated using Equation (1); (iii) the pairwise comparison matrix is converted into a normalized matrix calculated using Equation (2), and the average value of each row of the normalized matrix is calculated to derive a weighting factor; and (iv) to prove the effectiveness of the weighting factor, the CR calculated using Equation ( 4) is presented using the consistency index (CI) calculated using Equation (3) and the random index (RI) presented in Table 5 [53][54][55]. (1) n: n is the number of alternatives; (2) RI is the random index as defined by Saaty…”

For several decades, the number of reported accidents and fatal incidents in the construction industry has remained high compared to those in other industries. Therefore, many studies have been conducted in an effort to reduce accidents and fatal incidents in the construction industry. Recently, construction safety management has shifted from the construction phase to the pre-construction phase, ultimately to eliminate fatal incidents. In line with this change, South Korea enacted the Design for Safety (DfS) process in 2016. However, the current DfS process remains not well implemented for several reasons. Therefore, this study aims to present eight alternatives to improve the DfS process and suggests DfS improvement priorities by considering construction project participants and career levels using what is known as a fuzzy-analytical hierarchy process (F-AHP) analysis. The results of this study are as follows. First, respondents overall suggested improvements in the area of ‘assignment of responsibility for DfS to the client’ (0.196). Second, improvement priorities were also identified according to construction project participants and career levels. The results of the study can be utilized as basic information for DfS improvements during construction projects.
