Root Causes of Construction Project Variability

Here a list of the root causes of construction project variability resulting in 85% of ALL repair, renovation, maintenance, and new builds being… late, over budget, unsatisfactory to one or more participants or stakeholders, or otherwise economically or environmentally wasteful.

Addressing the Root Causes of Construction Project Variability can easily result in 10 to 30 percent reductions in expected completion time and cost savings of 10 to 25 percent or more.

  1.  Lack of robust and integrated planning, procurement, and project delivery processes
  2.  Poorly defined and poorly communicated Scope of Work
  3.  Failure to leverage current locally researched granular task level construction cost data
  4.  Owner lack of leadership, commitment, and/or accountability
  5.  Non collaborative internal and/or external team members
  6.  Non-mandatory initial and ongoing training for ALL participants and stakeholders
  7. Failure to have a database of preventive maintenance task, costs, and checklists, complete with frequencies and a standardized data architecture
  8. Non-continuous monitoring of quantitative key performance indicators

Addressing the above can easily result in 10 to 30 percent reductions in expected completion time and cost savings of 10 to 25 percent or more.
