| Abstract | In construction industry, a successful project normally meets 3 basic requirements. It meets time requirements within the budget, required quality specifications and safety requirements in the operation. Unfortunately, the highway project-package A3 under construction has the progress behind schedule in the terms of project performance due to some problems in project management where there are many causes leading to partial delays and overall project delay. Lessons learnt from these problems have become essential for successful project managers. Generally, the problems involved with project delays are solvable. To know how for solving problems, the critical factors impacting negatively on the phase of project performance need to be discovered and identified for analysis. This report will present the basic types of delays and analyze ten reasons causing the delay problems in the highway project-package A3 in the North Viet Nam. The method applied to analyze the delays based on the 4 ways to categorize delays of Theodore J. Trauner, Jr., PE, PP (Construction delays, 1990) to conduct the objective of the study. Finally, some suggestions dealing with project delay problems and lessons learnt in the project executing stage are proposed. |
