Thus, any modification/change within the project scope throughout execution will cause the whole initial project set up to be revised the i.e revised budget, construction methodologies, construction schedule, procurement plan, quality assurance plans, etc which will lead to more time, resources and cost against the initial baseline to complete the works. This could result in variation order that successively could lead on to vary in project deliverables, budget and/or even the entire project team. Therefore all the project plans, schedule, cost, and quantity estimation, procurement and quality mechanism are usually calculated from the initial project scope.Ĭhange in project scope could be due to poor initial project scope definition, miscalculation of inherent risks and uncertainties, project funding issues, change in the interest of the client or force majeure, etc. Poor scope definition at the start can be a result of cost overrun and time delay of any construction project. The scope of work in a construction project defines as the deliverables that are expected at the end of a project.
The following are the main reasons for delays in construction projects. With proper management, technical knowledge and techniques these delays can be reduced to the minimal level. Successful completion of the project on time is an indication of the efficiency of all stakeholders involved in the project but the construction process is subject to many variables and unpredictable factors, which result from many sources. In construction, the delay can be defined as the extra time required or incurred either beyond the stipulated completion date or beyond the date that the project stakeholders agreed upon for the completion of the project. Construction projects are one-off strives with many distinctive features like a long period, abominable environment, complicated processes, financial intensity, and such technological and organizational complexity creates enormous risks which resulted in the form of delay in completion and cost overrun.
