Empirical Factors Analysis in the Execution of House Building Projects

Abstract:

The aim of this research is to analyze the empirical factors (executive indexes) in a house building project which has governmental employer, based on the opinions of practitioners of the projects. As a case study, a 624 units house building project was selected in Shiraz city. Identifying the challenges and the advantages of this project can help us to improve and solve problems of many similar projects, which are being constructed all over the country. Twenty two practitioners of the project were surveyed, based on the executive indexes, using a questionnaire. The responses were classified in two categories: 1) Managers and Experts (M&E) and 2) Consultants and Contractors (C&C). The completed questionnaires were assessed and analyzed and the values of indexes were calculated separately, based on the ideas of both groups. It is found that there is a similarity between the ideas of the two groups in 25 indexes out of 30. Furthermore, the difference between five other indexes is small, based on both group's ideas. It may show the accuracy in completing the questionnaire and the accuracy of the methodology used. In this paper the results of this case study are presented and discussed.
