The construction industry is subjet to a wide range of uncertainties and risks. Although detailed risk management processes have been created, many projects still fail one or more of the initial objectives. This research looks into the influence of risk attitude on the risk amnagement process and provides practitioners with both a tool to...

One of the fundamental goals for the success of a construction project is found to be completion within the budget. To reach this goal, cost estimation is a key process which can be divided into the estimation of direct and indirect costs. Unlike direct costs, indirect costs are not directly connected with the performance of any particular...

The transition to a circular economy requires reducing waste and rework in construction projects. Thereby, the evaluation of building circularity in the early design phase is of great importance. However, due to the current design workflow, such practice is hindered because there is not enough information to evaluate building circularity in...

Precast concrete appears to be promising in dealing with delays in housing construction, yet long lead times are apparent in this industry. Lead time refers to the time that elapses between placing and receiving an order. The construction company Janssen de Jong recognizes the problem of sub-components’ long lead times in precast concrete house...

The Paris Agreement was created in an effort to enhance the global response to the issue of climate change. To reach this goal, greenhouse gas emissions must be at least 40% below 1990 levels by 2030 and the temperature rise must be kept below 2 degrees Celsius this century. Moreover, the recent fossil fuel price increases, are pressing eye...

Diversity in project teams is a notion that remains very broad and ill-defined, while literature indicates a mixture of positive and negative effects. The goal of this research is to better define diversity, its dimensions and effects, and the ways in which projects are affected by it. This investigation assists in the creation of a set of...

Incorporating sustainable practices in projects through a project management approach has gained traction in recent years. The current definition of integrating sustainability in projects is ambiguous (Schipper, Sivius, & Nedeski, 2012) and stakeholders hold different perspectives on the topic. Integrating sustainability in projects has...

The Dutch public procurement market is a multi-billion industry, with a total value of 73 billion euros per year. Competitive tendering is the most popular method of selecting a supplier for the required construction services. The realisation of a tender bid is an expensive and complex process, established on the intersection of various...

van Werkhoven, Suzan (author)
Despite the severity and high frequency of cost overruns in construction projects, it is considered a rule rather than an exception. This phenomenon occurs when the initially estimated budget does not suffice the actual costs needed to realise the project. Uncertainty and bias challenge the ability to make cost estimates. Incorrect estimates of...
