Prioritizing Critical Management Strategies to Improving Construction Productivity: Empirical Research in Singapore
Although various types of management strategies have been proposed to improve construction productivity, they are seldom prioritized based on contribution. This study aims to bridge the knowledge gap to prioritize the critical management strategies that can help improve productivity in the construction industry. To achieve this goal, a comprehensive literature review was conducted first, to develop a conceptual framework of construction management strategies that are assumed to have positive relationships with productivity performance. A questionnaire was then developed and disseminated to 53 Singapore-based companies for data collection. The collected data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modelling. Results showed that “planning and communication” is the most critical management strategy category for productivity improvement, followed by “logistics,” “project strategic management”, “human resources”, and “on-site management.” This study contributes to the current body of knowledge by prioritizing critical management strategies that can help the construction industry improve productivity. Findings are likewise beneficial for the industry practitioners as well, as they can help deepen their understanding of the role played by these management strategies on increasing productivity and thereby formulate the best combinations for their own companies.
