“…However, the success of this proposal requires careful planning during the design stage and strict supervision during the construction stage. This is consistent with the finding by Ismail et al (2012), which suggests that good coordination among all parties in management factors for every stage of IBS play the main role as the pulse towards the success of any IBS projects. Ismail et al (2013) also emphasize improvement in site management system of IBS construction includes work-place, work team, safety, materials, and equipment contributes towards the success of IBS projects.…”

Hybrid construction method with In-situ reinforced concrete (IRC) for wet areas in predominantly precast concrete (PC) buildings to overcome leakage problem is a setback for full IBS adoption. Various options explored to reduce IRC at toilet only to discover the answer is possible within the existing parameters of IBS. The proposal adopts composite construction comprised of metal permanent formwork and ISC casting for toilet floor while PC components remained as buildings structural framing system. This proposal combined different elements of IBS systems offers all the advantages associated with IBS; minimize wastages, better quality, shorter construction period and minimized unskilled workers.

“…PHP is an emerging construction method in which building components can be produced in a controlled environment and assembled quickly on site. According to previous PHP practices in different regions in the world such as Sweden, Singapore, and Malaysia, additional complexity is introduced into PHP because of more requirements for cooperation and coordination [7][8][9]. In addition, PHP has a higher demand for information delivery across all stakeholders in the supply chain and is more complex in terms of project planning, organization, coordination, and communication [10].…”

Abstract:The process of prefabrication housing production (PHP) has been inevitably faced with diverse challenges. A number of factors affect the successful implementation of PHP. However, the critical success factors (CSFs) remain unrevealed. This paper aims to examine the CSFs for the planning and control of PHP projects. A total of 23 factors were identified as a result of literature review, in-depth interviews and pilot studies with experts in the construction industry. A questionnaire survey was conducted with designers, manufacturers, and contractors in China. The result showed that the top five CSFs were: (1) designers' experience of PHP, (2) manufacturer's experience of PHP, (3) project manager's ability to solve problems, (4) maturity of techniques used in the detailed design phase, and (5) persistent policies and incentives. The 23 CSFs were further categorized into five groups via exploratory factor analysis, namely: (1) technology and method, (2) information, communication and collaboration, (3) external environment, (4) experience and knowledge, and (5) competence of the project manager. In particular, "technology and method" played the dominant role. This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge via a holistic approach covering the key actors of PHP such as designers, manufacturers as well as contractors to examine CSFs of PHP. These findings provided designers and project managers with a useful set of criteria for the effective project planning and control of PHP and facilitated the successful implementation PHP.

“…Also, according to Toor and Ogunlana (2009), monitoring the achievements, classifying problems, communicating the status of interfaces to participants, and initiating and co-coordinating remedy action come under the responsibilities of PTMs. Toor and Ogunlana (2009) and Gudienė et al (2014) opined that project team members capabilities include make effective decisions, and convince the project participants to cooperate with each other guided by the proper troubleshooting of project related issues (Toor & Ogunlana, 2009;Ismail, Yusuwan & Baharuddin, 2012;Gudienė et al, 2014).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the critical success factors and the critical delays in the context of water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs) in the Abu Dhabi Emirate. In addition, the purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual model to investigate the potential relationship. The literature concerning the critical success and delay factors and the related models that are available provide a starting point for developing the conceptual model. Based on the comprehensive and thorough literature review, all the dimensions of the variables are identified and discussed in detail.This study attempts to reduce the existing gap in the literature regarding the relationship between the critical success factors and critical delay. It forms a foundation upon which further local research can be conducted. In addition, it attempts to identify and point out the most critical success factors that will minimize the delay claims in water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs), as such delays would lead to some of the most difficult and controversial disputes to resolve. Internationally, it is expected that the findings of this research may help as an evidentiary reference data on which other and further similar comparative researches could be initiated and developed in different environments in terms of cultural, social, contractual, political, and environmental mediums.
