Enhancing design–bid–build project delivery: A comprehensive review and framework for contractor selection and project optimisation in the construction industry
Authors: Mohammed Ali Almuhannadi; Ahmed Salem Ghareeb
Year: 2024

Abstract The construction industry is one of the fastest growing and most profitable in the world. The industry is vital, especially in Qatar where infrastructure is growing. In the construction industry in Qatar, design–bid–build (DBB) is the most common project delivery technique; nonetheless, it has several drawbacks. Through a thorough assessment of the literature, this study attempts to investigate the DBB project delivery technique in the construction sector. A total of 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings demonstrated that in comparison to DB, CM, CMAR and PPP project delivery methods, the DBB project delivery technique has some advantages and disadvantages. Project delivery techniques are crucial to the construction sector, which is essential to the growth of the national economy. The present study examines the design–bid–build (DBB) methodology, which is a traditional paradigm that presents ongoing difficulties in terms of contractor selection and project delivery effectiveness. A thorough examination of the existing studies was carried out using PRISMA guidelines. The study found that there was a substantial knowledge gap, as previous studies have mostly highlighted problems without providing a systematic foundation for remedies. The correct framework should be chosen based on factors including cost, time and location. In Qatar, low-bid projects that have well-defined objectives and well-defined contractor pre-qualification might benefit greatly from the application of the DBB project delivery approach. A few of shortcomings of the research are the researcher’s prejudice, the incompleteness of the material gathered and the analysis of the findings. To replicate better findings, a comparable study can be undertaken in similar geographic places in the future. Robust pre-qualification procedures for contractors, improved designer–contractor communication, incorporation of cutting-edge project management systems and efficient risk management techniques were among the useful suggestions that surfaced. The study emphasises how crucial it is to maximise the DBB approach in the building sector. Subsequent research should corroborate these suggestions, investigate the incorporation of technology, evaluate the extended-term efficacy of undertakings and promote interdisciplinary cooperation. Through this activity, the construction industry may contribute to the sustainable growth and development of the industry by improving project results and the overall efficiency of the DBB model.

Construction of a Software Development Model for Managing Final Year Projects in Information Technology Programmes
Authors: Abbdelrahman Osman Elfaki; Zaid Bassfar
Year: 2020

The final year project (FYP) is considered a capstone course in information technology (IT) programmes and involves the development of a software product. Currently, students are using the traditional software development life cycle approach to manage their FYPs. However, this approach can cause many difficulties. This paper proposes an alternative software development model for managing the FYP in an IT and IT-related degree programmes of study. First, a benchmarking exercise was undertaken to compare the software developed for business purposes with that developed for educational purposes, which took into account the ten project management knowledge areas. The result of this exercise indicated that the differences that exist between business and educational software necessitate the development of a new software development model that is specifically tailored to the development of educational software. Therefore, capability maturity model integration (CMMI) was modified to generate a new version of CMMI – named educational CMMI – which could be used to evaluate educational software projects and detailed mathematical descriptions of the proposed model were composed. As conclusions, the proposed model was then assessed by students’ results and by questionnaire feedback, the results of which showed that the proposed model was both useful and applicable for its intended target users and context.
Application of Soft Computing to Address Uncertainty in Construction Project Management: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: Setya Winarno; Sri Kusumadewi
Year: 2024

Decision-making in Construction Project Management (CPM) involves numerous ambiguous information and uncertainties due to the nature of construction project. The Soft Computing (SC) approach, which offers several data processing strategies under uncertainty, has been extensively researched in CPM studies for decision problem solving. Decisions that cannot be adequately handled by conventional computer systems are facilitated by the SC approach. The SC approach encompasses a variety of SC techniques that are constantly developing and becoming more widely used to address real construction challenges. This study aims to conduct Systematic Literature Reviews (SLR) on the development of mainstream SC techniques and their current application in construction projects. Using an inventive SLR technique, 83 CPM papers covering the years 2018 to 2023 were selected for this study and then classified into four primary application themes of SC in CPM. The research trend was then described using bibliometric analysis. Afterwards, a topic-based qualitative analysis was conducted to investigate the application of SC approaches in the construction field. Several potential challenges to current research were then elaborated. It also contributed to suggesting future directions for the advancement of SC techniques that would be advantageous for construction research and practice. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-06-020 Full Text: PDF
Widely Assumed but Thinly Tested: Do Employee Volunteers' Self-Reported Skill Improvements Reflect the Nature of Their Volunteering Experiences?
Authors: David A Jones
Year: 2016

An increasing number of companies use corporate volunteering programs (CVPs) to support and coordinate their employees' efforts to serve their communities. Among the most frequently touted benefits of such programs to sponsoring companies and employee volunteers alike is the opportunities for employees to develop tangible work-related skills through their volunteering activities. Evidence for skill development through volunteering, however, is mostly limited to the expressed beliefs of corporate leaders and employee volunteers. This study was designed to contribute to this largely anecdotal literature by testing hypotheses about the extent to which employee volunteers' self-reported skill development reflects the characteristics of the volunteers and their volunteering experiences. Study participants were 74 employee volunteers who completed a service apprenticeship managed by a U.S.-based nonprofit called Citizen Schools that partners with middle schools to extend the learning day with a combination of academic support, enrichment, and youth development activities. Data were obtained via the nonprofit's records, and surveys completed by employee volunteers before and after their service experience, including measures used to assess self-reported improvements in each of 10 work-related skills: communicating performance expectations, leadership, mentorship, motivating others, project management, providing performance feedback, public speaking and presenting, speaking clearly, teamwork, and time management. Support was found for several hypothesized effects suggesting that employees who practiced specific skills more often during their volunteering experience reported greater improvements in those skills. Improvements in some skills were higher among employee volunteers who completed a greater number of pre-volunteering preparation courses, and the effects of preparation courses were moderated by the employee volunteers' self-efficacy about improving their work-related skills on all 10 skills as hypothesized. I discuss the implications of these findings for theory and research, and provide suggestions for designing volunteer experiences that encourage service commitments from companies and their employees, and ultimately create tangible value for them and meaningful social value for their communities.

Year: 2022

This research investigates the impact of the project management office functions on project success in Saudi Arabia. A comprehensive literature review is conducted to study different project management functions and project success measures. The data collected on a validated list of 19 project management office functions and 14 project success measures obtained from the literature. The analyses have two parts, one to compare the project performance of organizations that have PMO to those who do not have, using excel sheets by averaging the responses for each measure. The second part is to study the relationship between PMO functions and project success measures using structural equation modeling SEM in SMARTPLS-S software. Sixteen hypotheses were generated for analyses in SEM and five of these hypotheses were validated while the remaining 11 could not be validated. The results reported that PMO organizational learning functions directly impact project outcomes, while functions of project monitoring and controlling partially impacts customer satisfaction.

Establishing the SHort course In transFerable skills Training (SHIFT) Program
Authors: Letha Woods; M. Lindsey
Year: 2024

While Ph.D. programs prepare graduate students to perform biomedical research, a defined systematic training program for transferable skills is generally lacking. When provided, this training is often informal, unstructured, or inconsistent. Therefore, there is a need to provide critical skills in marketing, relationship building, project management, and budgeting to prepare trainees to navigate into a productive, engaging, and rewarding biomedical research career. To address this gap in training, the graduate school at Meharry Medical College has developed the SH ort Course I n trans F erable skills T raining (SHIFT) Program, a one-year professional development program accessible to graduate students in the Southeast United States. The SHIFT Program has been launched to equip trainees with skills essential for success in all biomedical science careers. PhD Students between years one and two in their graduate program will be taught the primary constituents of career management through the use of four training modules. In Module I, students will complete self-assessments and be assigned to a small peer-mentoring team of six students with two mentors. Module II will consist of a 5-day workshop that encompasses instruction on the transferable skills identified as essential for career success. Module III will entail monthly interactive discussions over a 6-month period involving case study review and mentor-guided discussions to further reinforce skills learned. In Module IV, students will compile the information learned from Modules I-III to develop an Individual Development Plan that incorporates 3-5 specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-based (SMART) career goals. Collectively, the SHIFT Program will allow participants to train, practice, and refresh skills, empowering them to navigate career transitions and obtain success in the career of their choice.

Year: 2023

Agile Project Management (APM) has developed throughout industries for years. Many companies chose APM for their initiatives. APM has been shown to help those who use it. Many APM adopters innovated and tailored the methodology. Innovation improved project agility. Innovation includes life cycle and development approach selection, processes, involvement, tools, methodologies, and artifacts. This study performed a Kitchenham-based systematic literature review in three steps: planning, conducting, and reporting systematic review. The 23 articles were chosen from ACM Digital Library, EBSCOhost, IEEE Xplore, Sage Journals, ScienceDirect, and Semantic Scholar. Journal articles or conference papers were possible. The findings of this study showed that PMBOK 7th Edition could map all previous studies into related innovation aspects. Then, the review demonstrated that each innovation improved the PMBOK 7th Edition performance domain. Finally, this study showed that organization-driven innovation could benefit the organization.
Complex infrastructure systems analysis and management: the theory of faults
Authors: Niv Yonat; Shabtai Isaac; I. Shohet
Year: 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this research is to provide a theoretical and practical theory and application that provides understanding and means to manage complex infrastructures.Design/methodology/approachIn this research, complexity, nonlinear, noncontinuous effects and aleatoric and data unknowns are bypassed by directly addressing systems' responses. Graph theory, statistics and digital signal processing (DSP) tools are applied within a theoretical framework of the theory of faults (ToF). Motivational complex infrastructure systems (CISs) are difficult to model. Data are often missing or erroneous, changes are not well documented and processes are not well understood. On top of it, under complexity, stalwart analytical tools have limited predictive power. The aleatoric risk, such as rain and risk cascading from interconnected infrastructures, is unpredictable. Mitigation, response and recovery efforts are adversely affected.FindingsThe theory and application are presented and demonstrated by a step-by-step development of an application to a municipal drainage system. A database of faults is analyzed to produce system statistics, spatio-temporal morphology, behavior and traits. The gained understanding is compared to the physical system's design and to its modus operandi. Implications for design and maintenance are inferred; DSP tools to manage the system in real time are developed.Research limitations/implicationsSociological systems are interest driven. Some events are intentionally created and directed to the benefit and detriment of the opposing parties in a project. Those events may be explained and possibly predicted by understanding power plays, not power functions. For those events, sociological game theories provide better explanatory value than mathematical gain theories.Practical implicationsThe theory provides a thematic network for modeling and resolving aleatoric uncertainty in engineering and sociological systems. The framework may be elaborated to fields such as energy, healthcare and critical infrastructure.Social implicationsToF provides a framework for the modeling and prediction of faults generated by inherent aleatoric uncertainties in social and technological systems. Therefore, the framework and theory lay the basis for automated monitoring and control of aleatoric uncertainties such as mechanical failures and human errors and the development of mitigation systems.Originality/valueThe contribution of this research is in the provision of an explicatory theory and a management paradigm for complex systems. This theory is applicable to a wide variety of fields from facilities and construction project management to maintenance and from academic studies to commercial use.

Authors: Rashid Kamran; Muhammad Qasim; Muhammad Usman Latif; Waqas Shabeer
Year: 2022

In recent years, the subject of decision-making in public infrastructure projects has become an important topic not only in project management but also in programme and portfolio management literature. Today, interdisciplinary projects are becoming a key focus in the collection, design and execution of government-sponsored programmes. With the various underlying risks and uncertainties, developed countries greatly depend on strategic planning regarding decision-making in infrastructure projects, whereas, in developing countries, the public sector programmes and projects are greatly affected by the lack of standardised and robust decision-making. This is primarily due to the lack of expertise to deal with the increasing complexity of the projects. This article aims at analysing the decision-making process in infrastructure development programmes/projects and discusses the factors affecting the decision-making process and thereby statistically chalking out the key losses caused by the delay in decision-making process in the public sector infrastructure projects of Pakistan. The findings will contribute towards understanding the criticality of decision-making process and mitigating the delay factors by encouraging to introduce standardisation in decision-making processes in the public sector.
