“…It was found that improvements in project performance [60] came before outcomes related to project schedules [43]. Other economic outcomes are: enhanced value creation activities [63]; and reduced risk [70]. Social outcomes cover the following: enhanced communication [31,74]; and generate trust between people and organizations [71].…”

“…In addition, an open-minded, free, timely, and effective communication can contribute to the development of IORs [44]. The communication category also covers elements such as information sharing [62]; mutual coordination [53]; technology transfer [70]; and knowledge sharing [71]. The category of resources-related facilitators includes: strong focus on staff [33]; shared resources (material, non-material and human resources) [69]; skilled workers [70]; relational skills and attributes [38]; and adequate resources [33].…”

Collaborative Interorganizational Relationships in a Project-Based Industry

et al. 2021

The project-based construction industry finds itself in a paradoxical situation: while it weighs heavily in the world economy, it does have a history of low productivity. One important issue that plagues the industry is related to the challenges that stem from collaborative efforts (or lack thereof) between actors. The objective of this paper is to explore how actors of the construction industry organize their inter-firm relationships while examining the characteristics of such interactions and the elements affecting them (drivers, barriers, facilitators, outcomes). These interactions and elements were uncovered using a systematic literature review. A qualitative content analysis was carried out to categorize these elements and to generate dimensions describing the forms. The 139 articles retrieved depicted 12 relational forms established between construction companies (in descending order of citation): partnering, alliancing, project delivery methods, supply chain integration, joint ventures, integrated project delivery, joint risk management, collaborative design, contingent collaboration, quasi-fixed network, resource sharing, and collaborative planning. A multitude of drivers, barriers, facilitators, and outcomes were found. An analysis of the results led to the conceptualization of a multidimensional profile, which allows for a practical and flexible identification of the relationship form potential partners in the construction sector intend to establish. To provide guidelines for the implementation of this profile, a three-step framework was developed.
