“…Based on three primary objectives of construction projects, namely cost, time, and quality, the construction phase needs proper management to fairly balance these goals. Low quality of construction, especially the quality of materials and structures, may generate unsafe buildings, leading to an increment of vulnerabilities (Silva 2010;Ping Xu, Xiaoli Lu 2014;Ahmed and Charlesworth 2015;Cheng et al 2017). Shortage of understanding of building standards, non-engineering structures and materials, and lack of supervision during construction are some of the most highly-ranked errors which can cause low quality in PNDR projects (Kopaei 2009;Zhao, Taucer and Rossetto 2009;Chang et al 2011;Xu and Lu 2012;Didem Gunes Yilmaz, Jason Von Meding 2013;Platt 2018).…”

According to the book published by Silva (2010), the construction phase has been decomposed into "housing and "infrastructures" from the perspective of "construction methods" and " construction technologies".…”

“…There is ample evidence supporting the necessity of updating the pre-established post-disaster recovery plans after the disaster occurrence based on rst-hand information (Griffey 2010;Silva 2010;Johnson and Lizarralde 2012;Rani et al 2017;Platt 2018;Kermanshachi, Bergstrand and Rouhanizadeh 2019). The post-disaster recovery process differs from project to project due to numerous factors such as the severity of the disaster, physical damages, casualty numbers, existing trends before the disaster such as community social and economic conditions, recovery assistance programs, access to resources, geographic features, population, economic growth, and policies (Anuradha Mukherji 2008;Cheng et al 2013;Ping Xu, Xiaoli Lu 2014;Lu and Xu 2015).…”

“…Identi cation of project steps based on the de nition suggested by Project Management Institute (2000) and stages of a post-disaster reconstruction project by Silva (2010) have been combined with the PNDR life-cycle. A comprehensive management framework covers recovery of structures and community well-being throughout this combination, considering social and economic aspects have been addressed.…”

“…Additionally, successful completion of the last phase's outcomes is permission to go through the next stage (Project Management Institute 2000). As was proposed by Hidayat and Egbu (2010); Silva (2010), post-disaster reconstruction projects have been divided into three stages; ''Planning, design, and construction''. The method applied in this research has similar performance using their methodology with some modi cations.…”

Following the increasing rate of natural disasters, more attention is being paid to post-natural disaster reconstruction projects. However, from the perspective of project management, these projects show a significant degree of differences from the regular construction projects. Although some progress has been made on this topic, further research is needed to smooth pathways for the management of Post-Natural Disaster Recovery (PNDR) projects. This paper provides a management framework for PNDR projects throughout the qualitative analysis of the research's selected resources. The resources identified by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria in academic online platforms have been coded by NVivo 2020, and corresponding groups have been made for PNDR life-cycle and project stages. An integrated management framework has been put forward throughout the simultaneous application of the research's suggested life-cycle and project stages for PNDR projects. The most significant observation of this study is the necessity of applying a continuous life-cycle to address projects' long-term goals and provide an experience-based database for the management of next natural disasters. The significant role of planning in the entire life-cycle of PNDR projects, recognition of the tasks that need to be handled continuously during entire PNDR projects, the necessity of simultaneous consideration of tangible and intangible recovery outcomes are the other findings of this study. Recognition of reconstruction as part of the bigger system, named recovery, also stressed the necessity of considering the recovery project as a whole.
