The influence of project team relationships on cost growth

Abstract: Purpose – Using projects executed with both traditional and integrated procurement methods, the study sought to investigate relationships that exist among project participants and the influence of those relationships on cost growth. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – Questionnaires were administered among 274 construction projects located in 12 states including the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria. … Show more

“…For a more proactive strategy, conceited efforts should be made by team players to create integral teams [3] and also enhance project team relations. The latter is crucial since empirical studies elsewhere [7] have established a positive association between project team relationships and project cost overrun.…”

“…The objective of the design phase of an IS project is to convert the descriptions of analysis models into logical and physical system specifications. The risks related to the outcome of this phase include system functionality risks, resource usage risks, technology-related risks, and performance risks [18], [32]. In an in-house project, the integration of existing and new technologies leads to increased technology-related risks, such as those related to poor interfaces, system extendibility, and system maintainability [6], [17], as well as actor-related and structure-related risks, such as those related to inappropriate authority, poor coordination, and a lack of experience among staff in using a new technology.…”

“…In the implementation phase of an IS project, the designed system is constructed, installed, and maintained [7], [18]. Risks related to the satisfaction criteria of the project, such as the scheduling and timing risks, personnel management risks, and performance risks, are focuses in this phase [15], [16], [18], [32]. In an in-house project, when staff can effectively acquire sufficient knowledge regarding existing systems, the risk of using old technology can be decreased.…”
