REVIEW ON THE STUDY OF PROJECT DELIVERY SYSTEM SELECTION METHODS

Civil Engineering

A project delivery method is a system used by an agency or owner for organizing and financing design, construction, operations, and maintenance services for a structure or facility by entering into legal agreements with one or more entities or parties. The selection of an appropriate project delivery system that suits all project and owner needs is one of the key decisions to a successful project. Therefore, this decision should be made based on thorough analysis. The objective of the project is to find the most appropriate project delivery system for a particular project. A fuzzy multi attribute decision-making (FMADM) model is developed. The model accounts for uncertainties and imprecision in the decision space as well as fuzziness in the nature of the decision attributes. The model utilizes fuzzy decision-making approach in order to evaluate the membership function corresponding to the utility of each project delivery alternative. Different commonly used project delivery systems were selected and questionnaire was prepared to analyse these delivery systems using the prepared fuzzy multi attribute decision-making (FMADM) model. The fuzzy multi attribute decision-making (FMADM) model developed was then compared with the conventional statistical analysis, such as Regression analysis to show the advantages of the fuzzy multi attribute decision-making (FMADM) model developed.
