Effect of Pre-Construction Planning on Project Outcomes
Pre-construction planning is gaining popularity as one approach to improving productivity in the construction industry. In the past decade, only a handful of studies have been completed on the project planning process; yet, most contractors believe better planning can lead to better outcomes and increased profitability. This paper describes an on-going research project that attempts to (1) model the electrical pre-construction planning process, (2) investigate the relationship between planning practices and project outcomes, (3) identify which planning practices lead to outstanding performance, and (4) establish metrics for evaluating planning effectiveness. Preliminary results and a detailed methodology for the final phase are presented.
