| Summary: | The construction industry plays a crucial role in the global economy, with significant
annual expenses and a substantial contribution to the GDP of the UAE. This has led to a surge
in building projects, fostering rapid expansion among construction companies. However,
challenges have emerged that hinder this growth, including high interest rates and intensified
competition among building firms. Additionally, there are many issues impede project timelines
and escalate dedicated costs. Many of these challenges can be addressed by addressing
inefficiencies within internal processes of companies. Agile construction, a method or approach
that facilitates swift adaptation to changes in delivery or design, has the potential to alleviate
these challenges. By reducing the time between problem identification and solution
implementation, agile construction can enhance project efficiency. This study aims to propose
Critical Influential Factors Model (CIFsM) for Agile Management Principles to enhance the
performance of construction projects in the UAE. The proposed model covers five critical
influential factor groups: organizational, challenges, human resources, technical, and
construction industry project performance in the UAE. The research recommends implementing
the model empirically using a quantitative approach to enhance integration among construction
parties and alleviate concerns about low project performance levels. Developing the CIFsM
based on agile management principles offers a promising avenue to enhance construction project
performance in the UAE by addressing critical influential factors and adopting an empirical
quantitative approach, leading to improved project integration and reduced concerns about low
performance levels. |
