Risk Analysis of Delay in Construction Project Based on Design and Build Contract

Abstract:

The selection of a procurement system through Design-Build is one of the alternatives for reducing the project implementation schedule, but time delays still occur. This study aims to determine the priority of risk sources and risk control strategies using the house of risk method through a questionnaire given to experts as respondents. Forty risk events and 17 risk agents will be assigned to contractors experienced in design-build construction on building projects. Based on the analysis results, the highest risk priority was that the contract between the project owner and the design-build contractor was unclear or contained ambiguities. The highest risk management strategy priority is on Strong and continuous communication and collaboration among all parties involved, including project owners, designers, contractors, and subcontractors, while the lowest risk control strategy is negotiation and agreement when facing unclear or inaccurate information, involving the owner in an open and constructive negotiation process. The findings will provide deeper insight into the effectiveness of risk control strategies for contractors and owners. not only that, the results of this study can be used as material in making improvements to the Design-Build method in minimising the potential for construction project delays.
