A multidisciplinary framework for robust planning and decision-making in dynamically changing engineering construction projects

Abstract

This paper proposes a multidisciplinary framework for robust planning and decision-making in dynamically changing engineering construction projects. The aim is to facilitate 'optimal' levels and 'trade-offs' between the major factors affecting decision-making throughout the project phases, to manage design changes and other disturbances, and to generate the maximum possible value. Offshore shipbuilding case analysis is applied to refine the model and to illustrate its value in decision-making. Keywords: construction project, uncertainty, lean, decision-making, behavior.
