Abstract:
The construction industry plays a significant role in the development of economies. This industry in Australia contributed around 20% Australian Trade and Investment Commission (2023) to its gross domestic product (GDP) of over US$1.80 trillion (approximately AUD 2.85 trillion) (OECD, 2023).The federal budget for 2022–23 allocates AUD 17.9 billion over a decade towards major infrastructure projects, encompassing substantial funding for nationwide road and rail projects. The overall investment in major public infrastructure is anticipated to surpass AU$218 billion from 2021 to 2025. Approximate

Abstract:
<p>Traditionally, projects tend to strive for increased predictability by managing details and attempting to bring all variables under control. However, experience shows that the chance of realising a plan without major amendments decreases with an increasing time horizon, which points to a need for flexible projects. A number of scholars argue that flexibility is necessary to face changes and uncertainty in the business environment. On the other hand, flexible projects are generally not described as desirable in project management literature. These conflicting approaches to flexibility have j

Generally risk is seen as an abstract concept which is difficult to measure. In this thesis, we consider quantification in the broader sense by measuring risk in the context of large projects. By improved risk measurement, it may be possible to identify and control risks in such a way that the project is completed successfully in spite of the risks. This thesis considers the trade-offs that may be made in project risk management, specifically time, cost and quality. The main objective is to provide a model which addresses the real problems and questions that project managers encounter, such as

Government financial models, a particular type of deterministic computer model, are created in order to estimate the cost of expensive projects with large time frames. The model is a function of many inputs, most of which are taken to be known. However the value of a small number of inputs X is unknown. Whilst the precise value of X is unknown, subjective knowledge about X can be represented by a joint probability distribution G(x). As a result of the uncertainty in X, the scalar output of the financial model is the random variable, Y. The main focus of this thesis is in learning about the unc

This study examines the organisational architecture of megaproject meta-organisations; that is project-based organisations formed to deliver one-off, capital-intensive systems. It investigates how the organisation that promotes the megaproject - the buyer organisation - divides and allocates the scope of the development work during the delivery phase across multiple suppliers. In so doing, the buyer organisation sets organisational boundaries around its own work and that of each project supplier: effectively creating the megaproject meta- organisation architecture. We use organisation design l

These large scale engineering endeavors are highly visible, have long lasting impacts and are of major economic significance. Yet despite their importance they frequently suffer from cost overruns and long delays and deliver systems with operational shortcomings. A contributing factor to the challenge of large projects is

Abstract:
This thesis focused on the performance of large-scale renewable energy projects for the United States Air Force. As global energy demands continue to rise, the need to find ways to save energy and produce alternative sources of energy will increase. The Federal Government has begun to address the challenge of energy production and energy security in recent years. In order to increase both the energy production and energy security for the Air Force, there is a trend to increase the amount of renewable energy produced on military installations. The goal of this research was to compare the es
