LEE, Jeongeun (author)
Women in construction are marginalised, and gendered work culture results in a higher turnover rate of early female professionals. On the other hand, after the COVID-19 pandemic, construction organisations have understood the need for digitisation to derive benefits from digital tools. Besides, it was presented that using digital devices may...

The construction industry has been, throughout time, heavily hindered by cost overruns and delays in the delivery of projects. This picture has only been magnified by the increased size, complexity, and urgent demand for their delivery. Responding to this circumstance has taken different paths. One of these has been updating and improving how...

Better collaboration in the construction industry might lead to a more efficient construction process and a high reduction of failure costs. A model that tries to support collaboration, is a Bouwteam. In a Bouwteam, the contractor is already involved in the design process and shares his knowledge about the realization costs of the design and its...

One of the most common hurdles especially in large infrastructure projects is scope change. Scope changes negatively affect time, quality and usually lead to cost overruns due to underestimating the change order impacts on the project. There are two main categories through which the impacts could be quantified: the first and second order effects...

Kostman, Leonie (author)
Nowadays, infrastructure projects seem to become more complex and the project manager’s ability to control projects decreases. Therefore, it is crucial to adapt project management to cope with the emerging complexity. Flexibility options are explored to deal with the increasing complexity. To grasp complexity, a selection of the Technical,...
