Abstract

The construction industry faces significant delays, particularly in developing countries like Nigeria. Tertiary institutions, including universities and polytechnics, are often funded by various entities. A study evaluating the impact of fixed-sum building contracts on the time performance of TETFund-sponsored projects in Enugu State found that none of the specified project durations were completed within the stipulated time. This violation of TETFund guidelines allowed for nonchalance by all stakeholders involved in the projects. The study recommends that stakeholders in the building team take responsibility for ensuring projects are delivered within the specified duration, as previous intervention projects were not completed. Keywords: Appraisal, Fixed-Sum, Contracts, Building Projects and Public Universities
