“…Among others, it was noted that the factors form that worry the construction makers in Egypt are "Weak communication/coordination with end-users" (12th rank), and it constituted 8.10% of the total cost of rework (Liu et al, 2020). This is in line with Malaysia, which ranked it on the 15th, and it was not an influential factor for China at 30th rank.…”

“…Hence, the frequent variation orders of the client may be accompanied ultimately by a rework occurrence (Enshassi et al, 2010). The cost of rework that only related to client was estimated at 6% among total rework costs in Swedish Construction Industry (Josephson et al, 2002), and amounted 7.1% and 14.73% as others studies conducted by Hwang et al (2014) in Singapore and Liu et al (2020) in residential buildings of China, respectively. Table 4 illustrates the most dominated factors associated with the client, which included 11 factors that cause the rework in the Egyptian construction market.…”

“…Contractor related factors (Ye et al, 2014;Aiyetan, 2013;Eze et al, 2018a;Enshassi et al, 2017) and subcontractor related factors (Ye et al, 2014;Miri & Khaksefidi, 2015;El Hussein, 2014; are important reasons influencing rework in other countries. Furthermore, Liu et al (2020) mentioned that the contractor and subcontractor are responsible for 20.10% and 10.54% of the total cost of rework in Chinese residential buildings.…”

“…El Hussein, 2014;Feng & Tommelein, 2009;Enshassi et al, 2017). According to a case study, Josephson et al (2002) estimated that the rework cost related to the design only as 26% from all rework costs and represents 18.91% also for residential buildings (Liu et al, 2020). This group includes 13 rework causes in the Egyptian construction industry, as shown in Table 7.…”

The Egyptian construction industry suffers from severe delays and cost overruns. Rework is a prime cause of this challenge. Therefore, the objective of this study to identify the root causes of rework for Egyptian construction projects and their impact on the project duration and cost. An extensive literature review has been done to identify the most common factors affecting rework. Hence, eighty-seven factors were identified and categorised into ten groups. Structured interview technique was adopted to get the opinions of 67 Egyptian construct professionals for nineteen different construction projects. Total Importance Index of Rework Impact (T.I.I.R.I%) was used to analyse and rank rework factors. Accordingly, the most critical five rework factors are economic situation for the country, schedule compression, design changes, specifications change, and inadequate feasibility study. Based on the survey results, the project stakeholders should consider the critical rework factors during the planning stage and before the project execution, to eliminate or reduce the occurrence and impact of rework causes and to improve the performance of the projects. This paper provides state of the art for rework causes and their effects on construction projects performance, and it can be beneficial for both practitioners and researchers for future work.

“…(Fuente: Liu, Ye, Feng, Wang, & Peng, 2018) Actualmente en el año 2,020 ya se ha realizado varios estudios sobre los costos por retrabajos; donde los investigadores concluyeron en lo siguiente; "la reelaboración se ha convertido en una característica endémica del proceso de adquisición en la construcción que invariablemente conduce a excesos de tiempo y costos en los proyectos. Por lo tanto, para mejorar el desempeño de los proyectos, es necesario identificar las causas y los costos de la reelaboración de la construcción.…”

Casi siempre al hablar de calidad, se relaciona a un producto con un costo por arriba del promedio, esto está en función al mercado en que se ofrezca el producto; para dar un breve alcance de calidad, se puede decir que es la medición de la satisfacción del cliente. Para llegar el objetivo de la entrega del producto final en la construcción, se ejecutan distintas partidas, consideradas en el presupuesto, así como, en el cronograma de obra; estos están sujetos a ciertos controles, los cuales, al no lograr la aprobación, adquieren el nombre de No Conformidad, lo que quiere decir No Calidad. En nuestro medio se han visto emerger grandes, pequeñas y medianas empresas dedicadas al rubro de la construcción de edificaciones comerciales y multifamiliares; muchas de las cuales no contemplan un adecuado sistema de gestión de la calidad; la presente investigación presenta algunos casos de pequeñas empresas que no le dan la importancia adecuada al control de calidad en las partidas de concreto armado; notándose el incremento de los costos propuestos en la etapa de planeamiento. Se analizará cada proyecto, a fin de alcanzar una propuesta, utilizando las herramientas del PMBOK, las cuales permitirán establecer avances en el sistema de gestión de la calidad de cada empresa, logrando así, una mejora continua en sus procesos; los cuales serán elementos medibles a través de criterios básicos y en formatos fáciles de interpretar, logrando así, minimizar los costos de No Calidad y mejoras en los tiempos de ejecución del proyecto.
