When applied to construction organizations the extensive literature on organization theory can be confusing and conflicting. This paper provides a path through some of those theories of organization which have been found of value in understanding how construction organizations function. It suggests that although they may take quite different perspectives and be based on quite different assumptions there exists valuable linkages between some of the most well-known theories and their associated models of organization.
