Factors Affecting the Failure of a Construction Project in Nepal

An issue of major concern within the construction industry worldwide is so called ‘project delay’, whereby negotiated contracts and/or planned schedules for construction between organizations are not met in the specified time. Such project delays may be caused by the actions of the consultant and contractor. The research has been structured as the case study of construction projects during implementation phase aspects of Kathmandu valley. It revolves around the secondary data sources collected from the organization’s periodic publications, yearly reviews, customer feedback charts and market analysis of the company in competition with the others with same business process design. In order to minimize costly and time-consuming delays, project managers are required to identify and be aware of the potential causes and their possible effects on the overall completion of a construction project. Hence determining the contractual responsibility of delay is the most likely source of dispute in construction projects.
