Research

OUR FOCUSES

Those responsable for large-scale projects have to deal with dynamic and increasingly complex technical and organizational conditions. This makes it difficult to develop and implement sound methods for construction management.

The aim is to use a risk management system to identify problems in the planning and construction phases of major projects and to identify and deal with reasons for cost increases and delays in good time. The development of new approaches, especially in terms of management processes, and the consideration of uncertainties in combination with modeling and simulation of construction processes, offer a high quantitative research potential. Based on theoretical understanding, the goal is also to prepare research results in such a way that they can be implemented in real projects. In this way, validation in practice is achieved.
