Enhancing Project Management through Exploratory Factor Analysis of Safety Performance in Dubai's Construction Industry
Authors: Qasim M. Al-Saleh
Year: 2023

The construction industry in Dubai, known for its rapid growth and towering skyscrapers, has faced significant challenges ensuring the safety of its workforce. The purpose of this study was to enhance project management practices through an exploratory factor analysis of safety performance within this sector. This research aimed to identify the underlying factors that contribute to safety outcomes and to provide a data-driven foundation for improving safety measures. Addressing the problem of frequent construction accidents and the high rate of safety incidents, this study hypothesized that a multifaceted approach to safety analysis would reveal complex interdependencies affecting worker safety. The methodology involved a comprehensive review of incident reports and safety records from various construction projects in Dubai over the past five years, coupled with surveys and interviews with industry professionals. The data underwent exploratory factor analysis to ascertain the primary variables impacting safety performance. Findings indicated that key factors affecting safety included worker training, communication efficacy, adherence to safety protocols, and the use of protective equipment. Surprisingly, statistical analysis revealed that projects with high safety investments did not always correlate with lower incident rates, suggesting the importance of qualitative factors over mere financial commitment. The study concludes that enhancing safety performance in Dubai’s construction industry requires a holistic approach that goes beyond financial investment in safety. Recommendations include implementing regular, targeted training programs, improving on-site communication channels, strict enforcement of safety protocols, and fostering a safety-centric organizational culture. In light of these conclusions, the study advocates for policy revisions at the regulatory level and a shift in the industry’s safety paradigm. The recommended strategic changes aim to not only mitigate the risks inherent in the construction industry but also to enhance the overall management of construction projects in the dynamic landscape of Dubai.

Research on the coordination mechanism of major industrial project engineering and construction multi-agents based on structural holes theory
Authors: Xiaokang Han; W. Yan; Mei Lu
Year: 2021

Industry is an important pillar of the national economy. Industrial projects are the most complex and difficult projects to control in the construction industry, and major industrial projects are even more complex and difficult to control. Multi-agent coordination is one of the core issues of industrial projects. Based on an analysis of the engineering and construction chains and agent relationships and agent networks of industrial projects, a complex network of the engineering and construction agents of industrial projects is established, and the complex network structural holes theory is applied to study the nonrepeated relationships among agents in industrial projects. Assuming agents are linked through contract relations and the most critical contract index between the agents in the contract amount, through structural hole analysis considering the EPC and PMC model, the aggregate constraint list is obtained, 2D network diagram and 3D network diagram are shown. According to the aggregate constraint value, the EPC contractor with the minimum aggregate constraint value and the project management company with the minimum aggregate constraint value are the critical agent in EPC and PMC model. By analyzing the complex network comprising different models of industrial projects, it is concluded that the characteristics of the agent maintain an advantage in competition, the coordination mechanism of the integration of agent interests, and multi-agent relations are considered to solve the multi-agent coordination problem in major industrial projects.

General practitioners (GP's) presence is homogeneously distributed in the Lombardy territory. GP's are easy accessible by people so they could play a key role in the prevention of overweight and obesity. In this study GP's included in everyday medical activity a primary prevention strategy regarding nutrition and lifestyle. The goal was to maintain a constant BMI for one and a half year for at least 50% of the patients (stable means without progression within BMI's range). During the same time another endpoint was to decrease from 1 to 3 units the BMI in overweight patients in half of the observed population. Subjects were randomly recruited during routinely ambulatory activity, without a specific BMI based selection. Diet quality was assessed with a food frequency questionnaire regarding "protective foods" as vegetables, fruits and legumes. Some "basic" information about nutrition and lifestyle where then provided through explanation of issues printed on A4 page brochure. Percentage BMI's range variation before and after the intervention show a stability in the observed population, with an increase 0,3% for normal weight males and 0,9% for females. BMI was constant in 72,2% of the subjects considering a 1 unit variation and in 92,2% considering 3 units variation. Within subjects who varied 1 unit (27,7%) more subjects decreased rather than gained weight (16% vs 11,7%); within subjects who varied 3 units (7.8%), 4,5% decreased and 3,3 increased their BMI. GP's demonstrate to have an efficient role in weight gain control with a simple and regular prevention strategy towards healthy lifestyles and simple nutritional tips. It is important for patients to comprehend the importance the doctor give to the overweight and obesity problem, apart from the medical issue considered during the visit. GP's have a key role for healthy life-style change programs among their patients. These results provide new arguments about the opportunity to invest public resources towards population (managed in collaboration with GP's coordinated by a public health department such as NU), rather than towards a single patient. The project management was supervised by the Nutrition Unit (NU) of the public heath system SIAN (ASL di Brescia).

The research study focuses on investigating the factors leading the failure of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) project management in the public sectors of Tanzania. The study utilizes a mixed-methods approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. The research includes a comprehensive literature review to identify factors associated with previous ICT project failures. Interviews and surveys are conducted with key stakeholders involved in ICT project management in Tanzania's public sectors. The findings highlight various factors contributing to the failure of ICT project management, including inadequate project planning and initiation, insufficient budget allocation, lack of skilled personnel, ineffective communication, and poor stakeholder engagement. Additionally, poor risk management strategies, organizational culture, political interference, and limited commitment from top management are identified as significant barriers to successful ICT project implementation. The implications of these findings emphasize the need for effective measures to address these challenges. Recommendations include improved project planning and initiation processes, increased budget allocation, enhanced human resource capabilities, and the establishment of effective communication channels. Creating a supportive organizational culture, minimizing political interference, and securing strong commitment from top management are also crucial to successful ICT project implementation in the public sectors of Tanzania. This research contributes valuable empirical evidence on the factors leading to ICT project management failure in Tanzania's public sectors. The findings can serve as a foundation for developing strategies and policies to promote successful ICT project implementation in similar contexts. Ultimately, addressing these challenges can lead to improved public service delivery and socio-economic development in the country.
A conceptual scientific approach to local economic development by way of portfolios of projectized household asset building activities — a case of depressed Russian Monotown
Authors: Leonid A. Shafirov; Hiroshi Tanaka
Year: 2017

This paper presents a conceptual scientific approach, blending the elements of the project management theory, i.e. three selected schools of the Perspectives on Projects (Turner, Huemann, Anbari & Bredillet, 2010), pragmatic institutional economics, and reasoned action approach, to local economy development by way of projectized household asset building activities in the case of a depressed Russian monotown, based on the first author's doctoral research in Strategy, Project and Program Management. The pragmatic institutional economic approach ferments proactive stance and strategic vision toward the local residents' project activities to be supported by the local authorities, with the project management approach providing specific methodologies to implement these ideas into practice. The reasoned action approach, in turn, is addressed as the means to structure the elements of interactions which might be influenced by the specific measures of such a support. Theoretical perspectives drawn from the literature as well as the results of the in-depth interviews into the community leaders, main actors in this research, have provided justification of the portfolio of the household localized credit housing projects as one of the elements of local socio-economic development vehicles.

Year: 2021

Changes in the business environment, the innovative nature of projects, lack of necessary skills of project team members lead to increased uncertainty and inability to plan with a given degree of accuracy. Such projects use adaptive project and program management methodologies. In the field of information technology, the use of multi-agent systems is of particular interest. In the context of the use of multi-agent systems for the design of intelligent systems for various purposes, the development and study of a model and software implementation of a prototype of an agent platform are relevant. The aim of this work is to develop and research an agent platform that can be implemented in the work of the distributed team in order to improve the assignment of tasks. The paper presents the formal agent architecture as a basis of multi-agent model. The task assignment is a case study to implement and test multi-agent model prototype. The agent platform is developed based on Kotlin programming language. A prototype of the agent platform based on the FIPA specification allows to increase the productivity, scalability and interoperability of multi-agent system.

Authors: Ching-Pao Chang
Year: 2013

Knowing and managing the software risks are important for software project management. The information collected from past projects can be used to obtain the knowledge of the software risk. The challenge to acquire the knowledge of software risk is that the software development environment is complex and contains large amount factors that may affect the software projects. This study proposes an approach that applies data mining techniques on the data collected from historic software projects to acquire software risk knowledge. The obtained software risk knowledge can be used to facilitate software project management. The advantage of the proposed approach is that the software risk knowledge can be acquired automatically according to the selected attributes. The proposed approach is applied on a business project to demonstrate how the software risk knowledge can be acquired.

The architectural profession, situated at the intersection of art, science, and business, faces a multifaceted challenge in balancing creativity and financial sustainability. This study aims to assess the financial viability of the architectural profession by investigating the perceptions of practicing architects in Enugu Urban, Nigeria. Employing a quantitative research approach, a structured questionnaire survey was administered to a sample of 135 registered architects in Enugu Urban, the data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics to identify influencing variable and patterns in the responses. The findings reveal a strong consensus among respondents concerning the entrepreneurial nature of architecture and its potential for financial success. However, a notable division in opinion was observed regarding architects' participation in non-lucrative projects, with 62% supporting the idea and 38% opposing it. The results indicate that core architectural services, such as design and project management, are widely perceived as lucrative, while specialized areas like historical preservation and community-oriented projects face challenges in terms of financial viability. The study identifies key challenges faced by architects, including fee negotiation, intense competition, economic fluctuations, and the need to keep pace with technological advancements. Its conclusion highlights potential opportunities for architects to expand their business horizons, such as embracing advanced visualization techniques, offering specialized consultancy services, venturing into real estate development, and engaging in urban planning and research.
Role Separation in Strategies for Collaboration Support
Authors: G. Kolfschoten; Fred Niederman; R. Briggs; G. Vreede
Year: 2008

Collaboration support consists of process and (optionally) technology support. For these two types of support we can distinguish a design task (to design the process and the technology), an application task (to apply the process and to use the technology) and a management task (to manage the implementation and control of the process and to manage the maintenance of the technology). In our interviews we found that in many organizations only one role is distinguished for collaboration support; a facilitator. The facilitator often does the design and execution of the collaboration process and in many cases also takes care of the project management (e.g. acquisition of sessions, management of facilitation team and business administration) and technology application (operating the technology). External roles are often the design of the technology and the maintenance of the technology (hardware & software maintenance).

. A new direction of the development of Ukraine is digitalization and one of the baselines is the digitalization of the state functions, which is called “The State in a Smartphone”. Project managers with IT specialization should be at the top of the labor market in this case. However, implementation of the “State in a Smartphone” should be realized by specialists who understand what digitalization is. The authors of the paper are researching the main goal to understand how the Ukrainian people understand what is “digital transformation” and “digitization”; which competencies project manager should have to be successful in Digital Era. They created a questionnaire. Seventeen people from the project management area took part. Using Google Forms for them were asked 26 questions. The authors received interesting and unexpected results. The respondents indicated that digitalization is well-known area for the country, but they defined it as informatization. They didn’t indicate project management knowledge for implementation of it and didn’t choose values as one of the important for the digitalization. Personal communication (with approaches for negotiation and conflict resolution) was lost for the list of the important competencies for a project manager. Other interesting results are presented in the paper.
MODEL, STRUCTURE AND PROCESS MANAGEMENT ENGINEERING PROJECTS
Authors: Milorad Radmilović; Igor Lazarević
Year: 2010


 <p>There is a great variety of definitions of the term project. In the broadest sense, &bdquo;Project is every temporary and structured process that achieves a time-limited goal or a group of goals&ldquo;. The recognized American Project Management Institute PMI briefly defines a project as &bdquo;a temporary venture with the aim of creating a unique product or service&ldquo;.</p>
<p>The term &bdquo;temporary&ldquo; means that each project has a clearly defined beginning and end, as well as temporary organizational structure, while the term &bdquo;unique&ldquo; points to the fact that each project is characterized by specific problems, which often cannot be satisfactorily resolved in a usual way of engaging an organization that implements the project. By combining &bdquo;temporary&ldquo; and &bdquo;unique&ldquo; nature of the project, it can be concluded that a project is clearly defined and implemented gradually, according to pre-defined procedural steps with the aim to effectively develop and efficiently implement the unique scope of complex business or enterprise.</p>
