Building a Holistic Performance Index for Construction Projects
In the building sector, time and cost overruns are still ongoing difficulties; hence, good project management depends critically on accurate evaluation of project performance. Usually, project success is measured in several performance criteria: cost, schedule, quality, safety, and others as well. This research suggests the construction of a thorough Project Performance Index (PPI) methodically combining these important performance criteria. One finds the relative weight of every element by means of a frequency-based analysis of their occurrence in the current literature. The final index presents a complete method for assessing and contrasting the performance of building projects, giving researchers and practitioners trying to improve project results a helpful instrument.
