Role of adaptive project method in turnkey construction projects

The construction industry is experiencing a surge in demand for process enhancements. This shift from task-oriented completion to multifaceted criteria has propelled adaptive methodologies, including agile implementation theories, to the forefront. The adaptive project management (APM) plays a pivotal role in enhancing the adaptability and responsiveness of turnkey construction projects. By prioritising adaptability and iterative progress, APM enables seamless adjustments throughout the project's lifecycle, which brings comprehensive oversight by a builder or contractor and encompasses all phases from design to completion. This approach involves breaking the project into manageable iterations, maintaining close collaboration with the client, and accommodating changes in scope or requirements, particularly within turnkey construction. APM creates a dynamic, client-centric environment that contributes to the successful realisation of turnkey projects in alignment with the client's vision. They provide clients with a streamlined approach to project completion without necessitating extensive involvement in day-to-day operations. However, this approach often adheres to conventional market practices. The study aims to address hurdles in adopting adaptive frameworks in construction by exploring agile methods, assessing barriers to implementation, examining cultural, structural, and systemic challenges, analysing successful adaptability instances, identifying key elements, and proposing industry strategies for effective adaptation, innovation, and competition.
