Inhibitors to Interface Management Implementation: Perceptions of Construction Stakeholders
Interfaces are omnipresent facets of a project management and their presence in construction domain is copious. Owing to inter-disciplinary interactions at the cross points, it is of paramount importance to apprehend complications which emerge at those interfaces. However, at interface point, possibility of conflicts are obvious owing to interactions, transfer of responsibilities, and exchange of information or resources. At this cross over, in case of misalignment of requirements from either sides of interfaces, then there is a scope for yielding of interface problems which ultimately result in disputes. Nevertheless, optimum stakeholder understanding through unified process such as Interface Management possibly eradicates such interface issues. The current study explores inhibitors to Interface Management adoption and through analysis of variance (ANOVA), exploration of viewpoints of contractors, owners, consultants and academicians through survey of 99 respondents was performed. Additionally, the study identifies top 10 critical inhibitors from initial thirty inhibitors identified from content analysis of the literature. Subsequently, the mitigation measures have been mapped from 4 experts using Nvivo. Also, the responses gathered instituted impact and frequency measures with regards to capturing of inhibitors towards IM adoption. The findings indicate that out of 60 possible cases (both frequency and impact), 53 cases show agreement over all inhibitors to IM adoption from all four categories of stakeholders. One key differing opinion among stakeholders is “Novice at dealing with regional and government specific legal aspects”. Thus, this study provides a roadmap for strategic orientation of organization which intends to institutionalize Interface Management.
