Abstract

Achieving a higher project value for all project participants is a major concern in the construction industry and reflects the extent to which projects are successful. The major struggle, however, is in the ability to both identify and measure the tangible and intangible project value requirements. Having different interpretations of what project value constitutes, the literature offers a variety of practices and suggestions for measuring project value. However, since the offered methods are fragmented and do not build on one another, a further investigation is required. Accordingly, this research provides a review of the measures discussed in the literature and suggests new directions for evaluating project value. The research targets the construction industry in addition to other industries that also provide effective strategies to create and measure value in customer-based product developments. The study revealed a lack of a sufficient approach for quantifying value on projects. Consequently, this research aims at providing combined effective ways to help measure project value in an effort to align stakeh
