A Conceptual Approach to Apply Agile Management in Construction
The construction industry plays a huge role in the growth of the country and the construction project management will aid the construction in all the aspects from inception to completion of project, the project management is the systematic way of planning and organizing of the resources to accomplish a specific task event or any activity. The project may be a one-time project or ongoing project. The resources to be managed may be personal, financial and material resources, etc. The project management is often associated with disciplines of information technology (IT) industry, manufacturing industry, healthcare industry and engineering and construction industry. As in the present time we in the construction industry are using the traditional project management (TPM) system which in other words is also called as Waterfall method. Whereas in IT and manufacturing industries they are all using the latest project management methods that is Agile project management (APM) system, all the other industries have the flexibility of applying this kind of project management system which is more dynamic and adaptive in nature. It is bit more challenging in the construction industry to apply the APM since we don’t have that flexible approach in the industry. In this work, an attempt is made to study the project management systems in brief and to understand the applicability of APM in construction industry by the semi-structured interview of the questionnaire. In this study, it is got to know that the implementation of APM in construction will be better when it is hybridized with the traditional project management system.
