Abstract:
The formidable need for building projects places greater pressure on stakeholders to deliver these projects on time, within the budget, and with high quality. However, many building projects have experienced extensive cost overruns despite extensive research on their causes and mitigation measures. Thus, the effectiveness of mitigation measures is questionable. This study examines the status of cost overrun in building construction projects and develops a structural equation model to establish the relationships between causes of cost overrun and mitigation measures, using higher education buil

In completing a large project there is a time overrun of the order of three years on a scheduled project duration of 3.7 years and a cost overrun of 140 per cent. Production losses are five times the cost overrun due to delay. Cost and time overruns are jeopardizing the viability of the projects themselves. M G Korgaonker reviews and analyses the Indian experience as to why there are such heavy overruns.

Abstract:
Construction project cost overrun is a common problem in the construction industry. The cost of construction projects is thought to have increased by approximately 33% on average. Several types of research on construction project cost overrun have been conducted and these generally rely on historical data. However, whilst each project has its own project characteristics and cost trend, real-time project cost data are more reliable to forecast its own cost trend. This paper proposes a real-time hidden Markov chain (HMM) model to predict cost overrun risk based on project-owned cost performance

Abstract:
The problems of material waste and cost overruns are common in the construction industry. These problems occur at different stages of a construction project, from planning, design to project completion. The argument on how to eliminate cost overrun has been on-going for the past 70 years as on-site wastage of materials leads to increase in the final project cost. This paper examines the relationship between the causes of material waste and those of cost overrun at the pre-contract and post-contract stages of a project.

The main concern of a construction client is to procure a facility that is able to meet its functional requirements, of the required quality, and delivered within an acceptable budget and timeframe. The cost aspect of these key performance indicators usually ranks highest. In spite of the importance of cost estimation, it is undeniably neither simple nor straightforward because of the lack of information in the early stages of the project. Construction projects therefore have routinely overrun their estimates. Cost overrun has been attributed to a number of sources including technical error in

A project can be defined as a temporary work that is within the scope of time and budget in terms of achieving a project goal. Due to the fact that construction projects are unique and usually very complex, project management therefore requires a working method that is adapted to the prerequisites of the project. The project manager's responsibility to follow up on the budget and ensure that resources such as working hours and consulting services are distributed correctly, is becoming increasingly challenging as the change paradox shows that flexibility decreases and costs for changes increase

Abstract:
Cost overrun in the design and build (D&B) procurement method is a significant obstacle in achieving the project goals. Therefore, it has become critical consideration over its numerous benefits when selecting this procurement method. However, applying new technologies, such as Building Information Modelling (BIM), can significantly minimise this issue. Thus, this study aims to investigate the use of BIM to manage the cost overrun issues in D&B projects. A qualitative approach based on two rounds of interviews was conducted to collect the data. The study findings revealed ten highly im

Abstract:
This study analyzed the historical trends in change orders (COs) associated with the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) highway contracts. It also investigated correlations between COs and base factors (district, project type, contract type, award amount, geographical area (rural vs. urban)), and sought to understand the effect of the root causes but not to predict CO based on root causes. Unlike the base factors, the root causes are unknown prior to construction. The study developed models that forecasted CO characteristics—CO likelihood, CO frequency (count), and CO severity (magni

Abstract:
The Mojave desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii) inhabits the Mojave and Colorado Deserts in the southwestern United States. The Lake Mead National Recreation Area (NRA) spans the Colorado River corridor in Arizona and Nevada and sits at an ecologically important intersection of the listed and unlisted Mojave tortoise populations. A large portion of the Lake Mead NRA contains suitable desert tortoise habitat, but no contemporary estimates of population densities exist for different areas of the recreation area. Three of the long-term range-wide monitoring strata overlap the Lake Mead NRA: Eldor

Abstract:
Wetlands play a crucial role in watersheds and provide critical ecosystem functions, most notably, water quality improvement, fish and wildlife habitat, flood attenuation, drought mitigation, and carbon sequestration. Wetlands in Utah are regulated primarily by the federal government under the Clean Water Act (CWA), which requires mitigation to replace ecological services that are lost to permitted activities. Utah House Bill 118 (2022) directed the Utah Geological Survey to explore the potential for an In-Lieu Fee (ILF) mitigation program to improve wetland resources in Utah. An ILF program w

Abstract:
This paper begins by locating the Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition project (GODAN) in the context of wider debates in the open data movement by first reviewing the literature on open data and open data for agriculture and nutrition (ODAN). The review identifies a number of important gaps and limitations in the existing literature. There has been no independent evaluation of who most benefits or who is being left behind regarding ODAN. There has been no independent evaluation of gender or diversity in ODAN or of the development outcomes or impacts of ODAN. The existing research on

Abstract:
Recent large projects in the upstream oil and gas industry underperformed 80% of the time compared with the outcome expected at project sanction. Approximately 30% of the projects had either significant cost overruns or schedule slippage, and 64% of the projects experienced enduring production-attainment problems following initial production. Smaller projects performed somewhat better, but significant improvement could be realized in projects of all sizes, most of which involve multiple companies working as co-owners. Focusing on decision quality (DQ) is a natural outcome of the realization th
