Analysis of Control of Building Construction Project Implementation in West Papua Province

Introduction

Analysis of control of building construction project implementation in west papua province. Optimize West Papua building project control. Analyze factors affecting cost, schedule & quality. Implement strategies using BIM, MS Project, and robust quality management systems.

Abstract

The implementation of development projects in West Papua Province often experiences time extensions due to various factors, including technical issues, human resources, socio-cultural aspects, and material logistics. Additionally, construction projects in this region frequently face challenges due to the significant distance from major logistics centers. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the influencing factors and control strategies. This study employs the Delphi method, involving construction experts in West Papua, including respondents from academia, construction specialists from service providers, and public works officials representing service users. The study distributes questionnaires to respondents to collect expert opinions, which are then processed to reach an agreement or consensus on each expert's opinion. The factors influencing project costs have scores ranging from 4.3 to 4.6, indicating that respondents strongly agree that these aspects contribute to project expenses. In terms of scheduling, the scores range from 3.9 to 4.7, showing that respondents also consider this a significant factor in project delays. Regarding quality, the average scores range from 4.2 to 4.6, demonstrating that this factor is perceived as highly influential on project quality. Based on the analysis results, the factors affecting cost control include ineffective cost supervision, price fluctuations, and execution method errors. The factors influencing time control are scope changes, financial issues, lack of supervision, and insufficient project coordination. The factor affecting quality control is the lack of on-site supervision. Strategies that can be implemented for cost, schedule, and quality control include utilizing project management software such as BIM and Microsoft Project, conducting material quality testing, implementing quality management systems, and conducting regular monitoring of project progress.

Review

This study critically examines the persistent challenges in building construction project implementation within West Papua Province, an area frequently plagued by time extensions, logistical hurdles, and unique socio-cultural dynamics. The paper effectively identifies the need for an in-depth analysis of influencing factors and control strategies tailored to this specific context. By employing the Delphi method with a diverse panel of local construction experts, including academics, contractors, and public works officials, the research adopts a robust and contextually appropriate methodology. The abstract clearly articulates the study's objective to provide actionable insights into improving project delivery in a challenging operational environment. A significant strength of this research lies in its methodical approach to gathering expert consensus. The use of questionnaires to systematically collect and process opinions from local stakeholders ensures that the findings are grounded in practical experience and regional specificities. The abstract's presentation of agreement scores (ranging from 3.9 to 4.7) for cost, scheduling, and quality factors highlights the perceived significance of these elements by the experts, reinforcing their impact on project performance. Furthermore, the detailed identification of specific factors affecting control – such as ineffective supervision, price fluctuations, scope changes, and lack of coordination – provides a granular understanding of the root causes of project deviations. The findings offer valuable, actionable strategies for enhancing project control in West Papua. The recommendations span technological solutions like BIM and Microsoft Project, alongside crucial management practices such as material quality testing, implementing quality management systems, and conducting regular progress monitoring. These proposed strategies are directly responsive to the identified influencing factors, offering a comprehensive toolkit for project managers and policymakers. Overall, this research provides a timely and practical contribution to the field of construction project management, offering a roadmap for mitigating common pitfalls and improving the successful delivery of building projects in West Papua Province.
