Contemporary Megaprojects

2021
Contemporary megaprojects have evolved from the discreet, modernist projects undertaken in the past by centralized authorities to encompass everything from large-scale construction to space exploration. Contemporary Megaprojects explores how these projects have been impacted by cutting-edge technology, the private sector, and the processes of ...

How do public owners’ dynamic capabilities improve project resilience in megaprojects: a configurational perspective

Engineering Construction and Architectural Management
PurposeRecent studies suggested that owner dynamic capabilities (ODCs) enabling public owners of megaprojects to activate, orchestrate and reorganize resources to uncertainties were beneficial to improving the project resilience of megaprojects. However,

Megaprojects, megateams and motivation

Physics World, 1994
The size of experimental collaborations in high-energy physics has increased dramatically over the last two decades. In the early 1970s a "big" team might have numbered 50 scientists. A collaboration today at CERN's Large Electron–Positron (LEP) collider could involve 500.

Configurational Effects of Social Capital and Dynamic Capability on Project Resilience in Megaprojects

Project Management Journal
Confronted with unexpected events, project resilience is significant for megaproject delivery success. A fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis is used to explore the practical configuration conditions for project resilience in 81 megaprojects.

A framework for utilizing “social responsibility” behaviors in resolving conflicts arising in megaprojects

Engineering Construction and Architectural Management
A major component of megaproject management involves the avoidance, de-escalation and resolution of social conflict. This study develops a coherent framework that identifies the fragmental and diversified aspects of social conflict that arise in ...
