Abstract

Performance of a construction project could be influenced by a number of attributes, especially large and complex projects lay additional focus on the success / failure attributes, because of the intensive amount of money invested, a high degree of uncertainty, the complexity of personnel’s required, a multiplicity of goals and problems in coordination between different stakeholders encountered. In this research paper, the author intended to define and examine the relationship and impact of construction productivity (CP) over construction project performance (CPP). The author tests the proposition that there is a positive relationship/impact between both of them. And to test the effect of factors is affecting CP on CPP and to propose a conceptual model on the basis of the analysis. To validate the mathematical validity of factor analysis, Spearman correlation analysis has been performed on the factors. And to check the reliability of all the factors using reliability analysis, and finally test the hypothesis that construction productivity is having a positive impact on project performance using one sample t-test. The findings of the study concluded that there is a positive impact of construction productivity on project performance in Indian construction projects. This paper attempts to identify the relationship between CP and CPP and recommends the framework for the industry to grow sustainably and deliver projects successfully. This study is conducted using a structured questionnaire survey in India and to validate the results of the study similar kind of study is required to be conducted in the other regions of the country to have more reliable findings."This paper is the revised version of the paper that has been published in the proceedings of the Creative Construction Conference 2018: Dixit, S., Mandal, S. N., Thanikal, J. V, & Saurabh, K. (2018). Construction Productivity and Construction Project Performance in Indian Construction Projects, m(July), 379–386. https://doi.org/10.3311/CCC2018-050".

Highlights

  • The construction sector is the engine of growth for any country and contributes about 8-10 % to the GDP on an average

  • The construction industry faced a number of issues and low rates of productivity growth and declining growth have entertained a number of researchers for many years (Jones and Slinn, 1956)

  • The growth in the construction sector has a significant impact on the economy of the nation

Summary

Introduction

The construction sector is the engine of growth for any country and contributes about 8-10 % to the GDP on an average. The steps required to measure and improve the performance of projects are: first identify the attributes contributing to the success or failure of a construction project. In developing countries a few articles or minor research papers been published on the performance of construction projects. The author intended to define and examine the relationship between construction productivity (CP) and construction project performance (CPP). The hypothesis proposed for the study: (H0): There is no significant relationship between construction productivity attributes and Project performance. (Ha): There is a significant relationship between construction productivity attributes and Project performance. The introduction is revised and a few more concepts of construction productivity and project
