| Abstract | Managing risks in construction project has been rec ognized as one of the key factors in the process leading to the success in term of time, cost and quality of a project. However, until now most researches in risk management have focused on the construction phase, rather than design phase. This paper aims to identify the risks in the design of large-scale construction projects and find out how to mitigate these risks. Through the two case studies in two different types of projects (one Urban Area project and one Building project), twelve risks are identified and risk mitigation are proposed. It is concluded that to mitigate these risks, the Project Manager should pay attenti on in several issues. Firstly, the Pre- design phase at the beginning of each project can n ot be omitted. This important phase results in a Design Brief and Project Management Pl an which together with the Design Service contract made stronger commitments of parti es. Secondly, FIDIC- white book which is usually used as the standard form in Archi tectural Design practice in Viet Nam nowadays needs to be added or amended some conditio ns. Lastly, communication also needs to be planned and implemented in a right way. |
