Abstract
A construction project is like a living entity and
requires the interconnection and coordination of several
stakeholders and many of them have their objectives,
which sometimes create a conflict of interest between the
teams and within the teams. The success of any project
is repeatable, and a set of attributes for the success of
a construction project can be identified, requiring discipline
and hard work. The construction sector is the
engine of growth for a nation and supplies services and
goods to other industries. The objective of the study is to
analyse the enabling factors affecting the performance
construction projects in Architecture Engineering and
Construction industry. The methodology chosen for the
study is to collect primary data from the Indian construction
industry using structured questionnaire surveys. The
collected data are analysed using reliability and factor
analyses. The findings of the study provide the value of
reliability, that is, Cronbach’s alpha value of (0.86) of the
data collected using a questionnaire survey. Furthermore,
exploratory factor analysis produced five main significant
factors based on covariance between the attributes and
grouped into factors such as site management and coordination,
leadership and financial management, planning,
commitment, and coordination having a variance of
17.65, 11.8, 9.1, 8.5, and 7.5%, respectively. This article is the
extended version of the paper accepted and presented at
CCC2019.
